This is a lyric about two people in a relationship where one is so critical of the other that it's absolutely ruining the relationship. The person asks can't you just say one good thing about me? All they have here is the negative, constant criticism, and being put down. It's gotten to the point where the other person can't take it anymore and the relationship is in jeopardy.

This is a fictional Rock lyric about a relationship that has grown to the point where the person can't take it anymore. They've been tormented by this relationship so much that they have thoughts of killing the other person if they stay with them one more day. I know I've been in relationships where it's really torn my soul out but I don't think I've ever been one where I was so angry that I thought I couldn't stay with the person one more day or I'd kill them, but I'm sure it's probably happened many times. Personally I think this makes for a great Rock song, it's an angry lyric, and maybe I was in an angry mood when I wrote it.

This lyric is about dreams. Some seems so realistic that they must be based on something that's close to me. Others seem distant, and more like a lie. I really don't know what a lot of these dreams mean and I can't live forever so I wish I'd be able to find out now. Are these dreams something that's telling me what's in store for me, or what I missed, I really don't know but all I know is I have lots of dreams in my head when I sleep, and when I awake I just wonder what it all means.

Eine Ode an die Nachteulen, die nie gelernt haben, wie frühe Vögel Würmer fangen.

Das romantische Gegenüber wird so sehr stilisiert, dass man sie nur anhand ihrer/seiner Strähne begreifen, aber niemals wirklich verstehen kann. Eine geradezu mystische Jagd beginnt und dauert vielleicht ein Leben lang an.
