   I've noticed that on the Used's second album, Burt never uses the words she, or her. I'm pretty sure every song was written because of the feelings Gerard sparked in him. I wish they would've gotten married!

   I think this is a love song too. I understand where you people are coming from saying it's about sex. I think it's about being madly in love with them and about wanting to have sex or something.
   
   The chorus bit though:
   
   And I'm melting in your eyes
   Like my first time
   That I caught fire
   Just stay with me
   Lay with me, Now
   
   Is very much about being in love with her.
   
   But bits like:
   Seemed to stop my breath, my head on your chest.
   Waiting to cave in
   From the bottom of my...
   
   and:
   
   Maybe you and me
   So kiss me like you did
   
   Is probably about making love

   This song to me was about both. It doesn't matter if you are a guy or a girl, I think it's about a guy who wants the day to last forever, and be with this girl forever. Maybe they are doing it.

   This song was his to Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance. They first met and Bert described the feeling as 'Gerard stopped my breath' then he wrote their most intimate moments. like 'we can take our heads off stay in bed, just make love that's all'

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

   Its definitely about love. Just falling for someone and wanting them to catch you. About how the person feels when with the person they have fallen for. Like there is nothing else. "(I'm melting, I'm melting) In your eyes I lost my place" and "In your eyes Like my first time That I caught fire Just stay with me Lay with me" maybe like all the other people who have broken their heart don't matter they have forgotten all about them. and they feel like they have to be with them all the time "every second I'm without you I'm a mess." and forgetting the rest of everything...."We could take our heads off stay in bed and just make love that's all ". I don't see any hidden meanings in here but its possible. I love this song.

   It means that he loves this girl very much and he doesn't want to loose her. Trust me, I've listen to this song literally 10 times in arrow in the past 30 min.
