This song means a lot to me because of a discussion it gets mentioned in between Brian and a group of others, Stefan and Steve inc. Brian is talking about his depression - a subject very close to home with me anyway. but he describes his taking of prozac to ease his depression and he talks about the effects of such types of anti-depressants. the first time i'd seen that conversation was when i'd been taking anti-depressants for about a month and a half and what Brian said about them was just so true - i felt happy that someone had described so accurately what those drugs do to you. he described it perfectly in a way i'd not been able to articulate until that moment. he talks about how he stopped taking the prozac and when the effects had worn off he immediately got annoyed at himself and sat down and wrote "You Don't Care About Us" - i listened to this song again after that interview and it meant so much more to me because of what it had been associated with at the time of it's creation. It being a product of feelings so close to my heart makes it a very special song to me.

ohh the pary "its your age, its my rage" reminds me of a guy i had a semi-relationship with. He is 2 and half years older, and he used that as an exuse not to go out with me. because i was 16 and he was just 19...jail bait stuff... and that just reminds me of that. plus he only thought about himself. and i am too emotional and shit. so yeah.. it all works.

I think it´s about a relationship that is not working, and these people are always fighting (maybe cause of age difference?), hurting their good memories of when they loved each other deeper. And so "You don´t care about us" is about the other person not trying to save the relation.

Woo. Fucking majorly woo. I love this song SOO much... I woke up this morning and after about 6 monthes of having the album I finally got that he was saying it like an unsatisfied GF/BF would say to his/her partner...I know it's obvious etc, but hey... I'd always thought that it was like a kid shouting at his parents,like, the whole "you don't understand me because you're old" issue? Anyhoo, I've now figured that it's like you don't care about "us" as in our relationship, so yay. Also I would like to point out the genius in ryhming "complicated" with "seperate it." Like I said. Woo.

Sorry for the double-post, but I just realised the suffocation, getaway car, etc. could all just be a metaphor not for suicide and a relationship but merely for ending a relationship.... Typically I only read the first post now.

Brian Molko says: "It's about an ex-lover having a furious rant at me for not caring and being wrapped up in my own head. Unfortunately, that's how I used to conduct my relationships: I was always imagining the end just as it was beginning."
