    Song Meaning
    The focus of this song is on a girl the narrator has grown to like. Her situation is stressful, judging by the lines "no one ever gives you a break" and "now your heart is gonna break." This could reference her family situation, or a past lover that wronged her. The narrator even feels some grief on her behalf, maybe because he doesn't know what he can do for her ("Now I'm singin' 'bout the alphabet / As the tears are putting out my cigarette.") He ultimately wants to make her feel better and spend time with her.
    Lyrics
    Gonna build it up just to burn it down
    You're a princess I'm a fucking clown
    Stop the presses cause I'm killing time
    Won't you be my bloody valentine?

    You're just a fucking kid
    And no one ever gives you a break
    You wanna se�orita
    And now your heart is gonna break

    You're angel blue
    With teenage traces
    Angel blue
    With pretty faces

    Stab my heart like a stick in the mud
    Cut my chest just to see the blood
    Now I'm singing out the alphabet
    As the tears are putting out my cigarette

    We'll hit the cemetery
    So we can see the holiday lights
    Waking up the dead
    And everything will be alright

    You're angel blue
    With teenage traces
    Angel blue
    With pretty faces

    Alright
    Stuck in the middle of Heaven and Hell
    Alright
    Trying to find my better angels

    Stab my heart like a stick in the mud
    Cut my chest just to see the blood
    Stop the presses cause I'm killing time
    Won't you be my bloody valentine?

    You're just a fucking kid
    And no one ever gives you a break
    You wanna se�orita
    And now your heart is gonna break

    You're angel blue
    With teenage traces
    Angel blue
    With pretty faces
