I'm guessing they mean sheet music. :)
For all you broken hearted lovers lost, go find another one. 'Cause you know time won't wait and you'll be late, white rabbits on the run...

Shell never seize to amaze me!
Its such a wonderful song and it made me so happy, idk why, I guess because its a new song and she was sso happy when she talked about it (neuro science is so interesting).
I love the lyrics and references in it. Its amazing

"I'm just as clever, it's not technically cheating if I didn't really mean it"

I wonder if that means she cheated too? Plus the bit about the letter, which sounds like a proposal to someone else, I wonder if that actually happened or if it's just for the song?

The lyrics are amazing, I really love this song.

I think, and I'm not sure, but I THINK she's just saying that to make a point, to show him that it goes both ways, that she can cheat too and do the same thing to him. Does that make sense? Not really, I know, lol, but it's the best I can do. Maybe if someone goes to a show and gets the chance to talk to her, they can ask.

I would bet money that the whole letter thing is true. Ever since Harmonium, she's been getting more and more candid and personal with her lyrics.
I waste the days away
Waiting on a new age
But time betrays me
And I get older one more year

"I wanna be your crystal baller
I wanna be your diamond ring
The one I never gave you
And the promise that it brings"


This was written while Stephan was dating Vanessa but was clearly about his ex Charlize Theron, as was the entire Out of the Vein album.

at least i can say
i was not afraid
i loved you all the way
i'd pick the fool any day.

Omg, that's so sad!
GO V!!!
Those lyrics are awesome. Luv it.
the letter part made me think about my ex bf when he proposed. He used the same verses as he used with his old girl. :(

LULz... I mean the guys age is REALLY showing...

And yeah I second the Fools Like Me thought. But I really hope it remains the same... I know its stupid but some of her songs sound so amazing raw and I don't like the "unintentional" over production.


i agree, i listen so much more to her live songs from heroes and thieves than the record itself, they are so good they don't really need anything adding to them!

and HA sj. those lyrics are amazing...'it's always easier with freshmen' muah ha ha

I agree with the un-intentional overproduction! But is the freshman thing referring to her flop sophmore alblum? Or am I stupid and its something else?

Yeah, I think you make sense, beautyofspeed. I think you're saying that she's trying to tell him that if she did the same thing he did, it would still be wrong. Like, let's say, she found out he cheated and she confronts him about it. But he argues back that he didn't have any feelings for the woman he cheated with (he "didn't really mean it") and so what he did shouldn't count as cheating. But then Vanessa's like, "Well, okay, great, now I can have an affair with someone as long as there are no feelings attached. Fair?"

Is that what you were saying? Lol.

I initially was thinking that too BUT, upon further inspection of the lyrics (lol), I think she is saying that she DID cheat. Why? Because of the word didn't in that line. It's past tense, and implies (I think) that it already happened. If she hadn't cheated, but was just just trying to make a point about cheating, she would have instead said "it's not technically cheating if I don't really mean it."

Does that make sense?

I'm fairly sure she is referring to college freshmen. The young type that would definitely be down with having sex with Stephan because it's "cool" to sleep with famous people.
