I just spent a good 10-15 minutes going through all the comments and reading and comparing all of the interpretations on here of this (AMAZING) song. There are some pretty intelligent people on Youtube haha.
This song is about not being yourself. When he says, "when i speak i cross my fingers..." he means to say that he hopes that people will not realize that he is trying to be someone else. Like when you meet someone for the first time, you don't always want to be yourself, because you are afraid that they will not like who you are. instead, you trying to be someone else, so you can "not be hurt" if they reject your true self. Maybe demon is a reference to the devil, who impersonates other things
@gtarplyr18 i like that...i've been listening to this guster since they first came out and i always thought this song was about an infilelity in a relationship...when he says "will you know you've been deceived?" he's referring to the other person being cheated on...but yours i a great interpretation as well
pretty good song, definitely very meaningful and many people can relate to it. personally, guster just sounds a little too watered down, instrumental wise, for me to love them.
@punkeatsemo Actually Danielle's interpretation seems more accurate, although you are allowed to interpret it however you want I suppose. Its pretty difficult to ignore the lyrics "When I speak I cross my fingers, will you know you've been deceived, I find a need to be the demon, a demon cannot get hurt."
I think the song is about someone who keeps their guard up because they've been hurt a lot. Over time they've evolved into this demon who chooses not to really care about anybody else but themself because then they don't risk getting hurt. And in that sense they lie, and what not.
In my own personal interpretation... It's about someone who's tired of doing the right thing all the time. Maybe sometimes it's easier to be a complete prick and not care about being sincere and honest. And at the same time, by being a prick who doesn't care, you don't get hurt or affected by anything.
erinnert mich an ein tolles mädchen, das ich leider aus den augen verloren habe. ich hoffe es geht dir gut, mini!!! das war unser song. du warst der beweis dafür, dass es jemanden geben muss, der für alles wunderbare auf dieser welt zuständig ist!!!

very close danielle, its actually about a guy who lies and invents a life for himself because he is embarrassed at the life he really has.
and yes, while not the kind of music i normally listen to, guster is deffinately greatness waiting to happen.
and for those of you who dont already know, they are going to be playing in chicago on the 4th of july. should be good.
