Snowmass Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 "No one ever told me when I was alone, they just thought I'd know better." What does this mean? No one told Axl that he was alone? Or was there something that they chose not to tell him, specifically when he was alone? I've listened to this song hundreds of times and still do not understand what this line means.It's just a song. Nothing more, nothing less. AFD had meanings.....they lived it. CD- just an album with catchy lyrics/songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please keep your delusional "CD is a finck song, SOD is a finck song" shit to yourself. You NEVER back your claims up 'cause you know you're wrong. Better is Finck's only baby. That's it. And the lyrics are Axl's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevelle Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I take it as meaning that maybe people drifted away from him one by one, and by the time he finally realized it, he was alone and lamented the fact that no one spoke up and told him what was happening around him.

Black Sabbath Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Always thought about the same thing, but I'm gonna go ahead and agree with Amir's theory on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
