I never understood what this song was about.... | till now?

Red Hot Chili Peppers
"Breaking the girl"
from the album "Blood Sugar Sex Magik"

I am a man
Cut from the know
Rarely do friends
Come and then go
She was a girl
Soft but estranged
We were the two
Our lives rearranged
Feeling so good that day
A feeling of love that day

Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
You're breaking the girl
She meant you no harm (chorus)
Think you're so clever
But now you must sever
You're breaking the girl
He loves no one else

Raised by my dad
Girl of the day
He was my man
That was the way
She was the girl
Left alone
Feeling the need
To make me her home
I don't know what when or why
The twilight of love had arrived

i think it's about a guy who convinces a girl to let him take her virginity, but when it's all said and done, he realizes that he didn't love her so deeply, and all he really wanted was a shallow peice of ass.

*shrugs*

that's what i got out of it.

The beauty of music is that you can interpret it any way you want. The lyrics

"Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
You're breaking the girl
She meant you no harm (chorus)
Think you're so clever
But now you must sever..."

just hit me last night, thinking of my problem.
