Double X Minus


chika-ka pow!

Double X Minus )

Double X Minus still means a lot to me. It's reteaching me things I've forgotten. The meaning of this song and name could've spared me a lot of what has happened in my life in the past year or so, but I haven't been paying enough attention, I suppose.

What does the song mean? Well, it's about a person realizing that staying in a relationship with someone else is tearing the two people involved apart. It's about things getting so bad, that the mind and heart collide. Logic takes a stand against emotion, and the common sense thing to do since things are so bad are to leave the relationship, but the strong attatchment of the heart prevents it from happening. Eventually, they become two different entities and there's an all out inner war within a person, 'causing further damage to both individuals involved.

After a while, nothing makes sense. A person can even lose their identity in a fight like this. At that point, it's time to let go. It's about realizing that when things reach a certain point, the suffering and fighting has to end. A person just has to learn to let go.

What does the song mean to me personally? I used to teach people that for years and years. My friends used to come to me a lot for relationship counseling, and messages like this helped me to give them the guidance they were seeking at the time. Right now, I am being taught a lesson I used to teach day in and day out by this very song.

What does "double x minus" mean?
The song's title is a reference to women's chromosomes (XX). Minus is taking away the chromosomes, meaning that the song is from a male's perspective. He's learning to leave the woman that he's having these troubles with.
