Placebo: Every Me And Every You Meaning

Every Me And Every You Lyrics

Sucker love is heaven sent.
You pucker up, our passion's spent.
My hearts a tart, your body's rent.
My body's broken, yours is bent.

Carve your name into my arm.
Instead of stressed, I lie here charmed.
Cuz there's nothing else to...

   Sounds like sex/love addiction or at least co decency.
   “Carve your name into my arm
   instead of stressed i lie here charmed...”
   —Omg what a brilliant lyric. Taking pain and damage for the thrill of the rush.
   Another lyric that shows up many times, “cuz there’s nothing else to do...”
   — I’m not sure if that means a sex/love addict will crave and use people out of boredom and emptiness in their life, or, it may be saying they don’t know any other way to be. Maybe it’s both. Brilliant.
   I absolutely love it when lyrics match up with great music and this song pulls it off.

   This song is about a complicated & likely codependent relationship in which the person narrating is deeply entangled. It's not a healthy or particularly good coupling, as he doesn't even try to hide all the drama & pain: (every me & every you is a poetic way of saying they've shown every side of themselves to one another in the course of the relationship, even some they themselves weren't necessarily aware of. They have mad sparks but bring out the worst in each other & push one another to ever darker and unexpected places.{carve your name into my arm,instead of stressed I lie here charmed/I serve my head up on a plate, it's only comfort calling late}
   sucker love, obviously stating from the start that both of them are "suckers" for this relationship and one another, based on chemistry alone. But he's aware that it's doomed & he just wants to stretch the good parts as long as possible. (Pucker up, for Heaven's sake-there's never been so much at stake! & in the shape of things to come, too much poison, come undone) A song celebrating the thrill & rush of a toxic pairing based on sex and drama.
