| i was just wondering what everyone thought the song was about? it is just a couple having a fight after a night of binging? but i couldn't figure out is this from a girl's perspective? i just thought maybe by the "you're a big boy now, let's not talk about growth" if anyone has any ideas i'd be curious to hear, thanks. | |

| i hear "wit." i think it means that if he's taking ecstasy, its something serious, not something to take lightly. it's not a joke. i also think that it's between a man and a woman in a relationship. especially with the part "please keep your hands down, and stop raising your voice. it's hardly what i'd be doing if you gave me a choice." meaning, he would rather be holding her, or doing something sexual. | |

| Yeah, I think the Ecstasy line is about drugs, and just how shes talking to him, but he's not hearing her, or he cant take responsibility. I think it's a beautiful song, but like most snow patrol songs, its got such a different meaning. I kinda thought it was a guy talking to his girl, and the whole 'you're a big boy now' line was about him coming to realise that he's done wrong, instead of trying to convince her he hadnt done anything, like he seems to be in the beginning of the song. | |

| a couples arguement about their relationship and what each wants from from it and it seems one of them (think the girl) feels that he is not beign fair or pulling his weight maybe... my favorite song on the album | |

| the song is quite obviously about a failed relationship. the speaker is attempting to mend things, as he is being attacked and played as the instagator. it's unclear as to whether or not the romatic other is male or female("you're a big boy now, so let's not talk about growth.") their relationship is on the breaks, and the speaker is attempting to save it, while simultaneoudly realizing that his romantic other is not as perfect as he had hoped("You've not heard a single word I have said... Oh, my God.") he mentions a few resons as to why the relationship has been bad so fat(drugs, sensationalism, and failure for the other party to accept responsibility.) he starts the song desperately wanting to fix things, but perhaps by the end he's not sure. great song. | |
