Derek Foley spoke shit and, to be honest, I'm laughing at/with all the people that think he's wrong. Stupid. Anyway... Im guessing that the people above Derek Foley were just thinking the same thing and once he'd said it they thought 'what the hell' Well at first I thought it was about cutting but I never laughed at him for being 'sad' but then I saw this page and tbh i feel STUPID for thinkin... Bert? was depressed xD i love the used! <3 Sorry for this being so long :] maybe..... | Reviewer: thomas | 5/15/09 maybe.... hes talking about "sharper" as in smarter and box meaning his brain. because he was talking about the best "idea" hes ever had. but couldnt tell you, not a music analyzer.... it might just be me but i dont think that it has any symbolism toward cutting... unless hes talking litterally finding a box of really pretty looking knives... because that could be a beautifull thing too! lol jk but seriously, i like the song, which is strange because i really dont like the used... lol :] El Usado | Reviewer: Alyss Heroin | 4/24/09 This song is awesome.The Used fukkkin ruulz.stop arguing about what the song is about.were all apart of the Used Movement so lets all be one happy family under Chadam It's our time to shine THE USED MOVEMENT (tUm) Read the bio on Bert | Reviewer: BLABLA | 3/31/09 Bert used to be a fucking meth addict, seriously look up some history before you bash someone more famous than you okay? Not only that, but songs DO mean different things besides what the artist indicted. Im only saying this because dumbasses who SAY this song is about CUTTING(Haha...even though berts clearly not emotionally depressed) and bla bla. Context Of Reception | Reviewer: fabyan | 3/29/09 dudes, you're totally fucking what's poetry all about if someone writes something for any reason he might have .. it may mean something completely different to you just because your CONTEXT OF RECEPTION is different .. if you're sad... you'd take it as sharp literally, for example... it may vary from person to person, but that's what makes poetry so awesome.. isn't it? the figurative form to express many much things that plenty of us in our bubbles live day to day who cares | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/13/09 its a dope song that means different things to different people personally i dont think its about cutting it could also be about addiction a sharp in also a rig used to inject drugs that comes either in a bag or a box, but im not trippen if thats not what the songs about i still enjoy it either way i give credit to the band i really do like this song and always look forward to hearing more of their music Literal translations? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/1/09 Anyone who saw/read the interview would agree with the song being a metaphorical relation to music. A sharp is also a musical term, it is an accidental that is a half-step higher than the note, and it makes the metaphor even more obvious. People who think it's about cutting should stop translating lyrics so literally. When he says "stronger and sharper" he's most likely talking about the strength he gets from writing music, and how he feels mentally after doing so. He was not literally speaking of a box that had sharp objects in it. And also, Bert doesn't need Jesus. He said in an interview that music for him was like his Jesus, another reason why he should write about his love for it. SONGS CAN HAVE MULTIPLE MEANINGS. | Reviewer: runswithunicorns@yahoo.com | 9/2/08 Stop arguing over what the song 'really' means. For Taylor(suki)'box full of sharp objects' is about loving someone so much it hurts. Shes right..thats what it means to her. For Derek foley 'box full of sharp objects' is about cutting yourself, he/she isn't wrong thats what it means to him/her, But that doesn't mean that 'the used' is Glorifying cutting. 'box full of sharp objects' was intended to be about love of music, the box of sharp objects is the metaphor. Now just because thats what the song is wrote about doesn't mean that it cant means something else to someone else. But no Derek Foley This song isn't glorifying cutting. That may be the only meaning you get out of it but this doesn't mean that bert or any member of the used is glorifying cutting. Its your own fault you cant understand the metaphor being used. I love this song. awesome song=] | Reviewer: nikehh | 7/27/08 alot of people think this songs about cutting yourself. well i say HAHAHAH...do your research and actually LISTEN to what the songs saying instead of HEARING the music and READING the title. theres a diffrence between hearing and listening.
