Top Comments of this video!! :3
I think the person singing the song was abusive and toxic to their partner.
When you first hear the phrase, ā*and if you leave me, rest assured it will kill me*ā sounds like āI love you so much I canāt bear to part with you.ā But later in the song that same phrase changes to āI will kill myself if you leave me, so donāt think of leaving me ever.ā
Itās really cool how they did it like that. Thereās so many ways this can be understood

Lyrics:
You stood beside, Me when I was out of my mind.
I broke the glass, And you were there, To sweep it aside.
And if you leave me, Rest assure it would kill me.
I make a mess, And you'll be there to help me un-dress
I'll be unclean, I'll be obscene, You'll be the rest.
And if you leave me, Rest assure it would kill me.
Like an Oleander, White, White leaves.
Of an Oleander, White like me
I'm like a child, In a sty
I play with fire, I burnt your eyes out, I burnt your Bible
You tried to cry, But only smiled.
And if you leave me, Rest assure that it would kill me.
Rest assure if you leave-
Like an Oleander, White, White Leaves.
White like me.
Of the Oleander, White, White Leaves.
Of an Oleander, White like me.
Ayy, I actually did it : D

revisiting this, i really do love this song. but man. mother motherās music just brings to light emotions you werenāt expecting. it sucks that i canāt just have fun listening to good music anymore, man.
the lyrics of this song hit pretty close to home when it comes to the questionable friendships and relationships iāve been in. me fixing shit after it goes wrong, being there to emotionally support them. worrying over friends who became more and more apathetic and more likely to just... end it. worrying over dropping friendships because of how dependent they are on me.
set boundaries, guys. sometimes it feels like itās impossible to because of how deep you got yourself in other peopleās business.

While this song was playing I drifted off and had a dream about an old friend.
āYour stupid jean jacket and bike.ā I was smiling because I assumed it was part of the lyrics. I miss him so much I wish we never drifted apart. 3 years.. 3 years gone down the drain.. I honestly wish he wasnāt a toxic friend but it is what it is and as much as I wish he was still here, people move on. He looked so beautiful in my dream and he looked happy.. without me. He doesnāt need me at all anymore and Iām okay with it but I wish he needed me.

My ex was abusive and toxic.
I possibly died when she left me...
Because even though she hurt me,
I learned to depend heavily on her...
(EDIT: Thank you to everyone supporting me. I'm on the steady road to recovery and my current girlfriend has been helping me along every step of the way. I hope you all have a wonderful day/night.)

Ya know it's funny to see how this entire (bAND) comment section has been taken over by the (young) animation community (on yt)
I mean I've been a member of this community too, for a couple years
, but a fan of this band for many many more, It's really funny to just watch the whole thing blow up, I've come to revisit my favorites as hearing songs from my childhood has brought out the S A P P Y part in me, and i must binge them all now.

An Oleander is: A pinkish white flower that means love. But itās also very poisonous and could kill a human. Love can be dangerous, basically the meaning of this song
