No Picture DemolitionLover Wanna Be	#1 by DemolitionLover ^^v^^ at Oct 4, 2007 at 5:19 PM EST
	I have a few changes: The drugs begin to peak A smile of joy arrives in me But sedation changes to panic and nausea And breath starts to shorten And heartbeats pass softer You won't try to save me You just want to break me, and leave me desperate You taught my heart a sense I never knew I had I can't forget the times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroine You won't leave me alone Chisel my heart out of stone I give in everytime. You taught my heart a sense I never knew I had I can't forget the times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroine I bet you laugh at the thought of me thinking for myself I bet you believe that I'm better off with you than someone else Your face arrives again, all hope I had becomes surreal But under your cover's more torture than pleasure And just past your lips, there's mores anger than laughter Not now or forever will I ever change you I know that to go on, I'll break you my habit You taught my heart a sense I never knew I had I can't forget the times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroine I will save myself /changes

No Picture spence Average	#2 by spence o'brien at Oct 7, 2007 at 7:53 PM EST
	I think it is about a realtionship with a woman and i think he uses heroine as a metaphor to show how he feels trapped in the relationship. He knows he doesn't want to be in this relationships at all but just fells like he can't escape. He's telling himself that he should have the strength to get out, and he knows he will eventually. Sheepshirts, if I followed your most instructive example I would do nothing but hipocritically bash people for bashing people. Just so you know its not about knowing the answers its about having your own opinions on the song's meaning (s). opinion A + opinion B = discussion & debate (naturally) xogivinguponmeox, you need to fully develop an opinion, notice the box says "What does this song mean to you" Most everything has multiple meanings, we want to know what it means to you!

No Picture Justin - MrBlit Rhythm Player	#3 by Justin - MrBlitz - Maletta at Oct 8, 2007 at 2:54 AM EST
	i agree with shallowxgrave. it's mostly about a women. he's addicted to her. and she knows that he is and takes advantage of it.

No Picture Justin Average	#4 by Justin Ruiz at Oct 10, 2007 at 7:27 PM EST
	This song is so fucking awesome, definitely one of the best on the new album. It sounds like a drug addiction or maybe it could be to do with a woman

No Picture Dudey Average	#5 by Dudey at Oct 11, 2007 at 1:58 PM EST
	yeh your all wrong. im not really sure what its about, but a 'heroine' is a female hero. heroin is the drug. two simularly spelt words with totally differnt meanings

No Picture Alexxx <3 Lead Player	#6 by Alexxx <3 at Oct 17, 2007 at 1:15 AM EST
	Yah...this song is a metaphor, definitley not about actual herione. Its about his GF or watever...

No Picture Ben Wanna Be	#7 by Ben Koss at Oct 19, 2007 at 11:03 AM EST
	That is most likely what it is about but i thought i would throw in a different perspective for those of you closed minded fools. not you shallowXgrave
