Fantastic 4
Blind Benny Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I count on you to up and change you do or you dont
say those words i need to hear
I walk away so unclear you do or you dont
but I'm slipping under you
hold on tight it feels so right
walk outside the suns so bright
suddenly I dont feel right but one day I might
cause Im slipping under you
yea im slipping under you
Do you belong to me
maybe me too
I dont belong to you
Cant say no I cant say no
even though we both know the truth
I've memorized a thousand times
my goodbyes like lullabies its true, you know its true
still Im slipping under you
Youre the one I hold so dear
Ill save your life you wipe my tears and you do everytime
distant as I may be youre the closest one to me
hold me up and keep me near are you really staying here
cause Im slipping under you
Im slipping under you
Do you belong to me
Baby me too
I dont belong to you
Do you belong to me
baby me too
I dont belong to you
Do you belong to me
maybe me too
I might belong to you
In Blind Benny's song 'Fantastic 4', the lyrics center around a tumultuous relationship where the singer is unsure about the other person's feelings. The opening lines, "If one day you feel the same, I count on you to up and change. You do or you don't, say those words I need to hear. I walk away so unclear, you do or you don't", suggest that the vocalist is waiting for a declaration of love from their partner. It is a plea to the other person to be honest and communicate their true feelings.
The second verse, "Can't say no, I can't say no. Even though we both know the truth, I've memorized a thousand times my goodbyes like lullabies. It's true, you know it's true", suggests that the singer is aware of the toxic nature of their relationship, but they cannot help but stay. The repetition of "slipping under you" in the chorus highlights the singer's inability to break free from the relationship.
The final verse, "You're the one I hold so dear. I'll save your life, you wipe my tears and you do every time. Distant as I may be, you're the closest one to me. Hold me up and keep me near, are you really staying here", suggests that despite everything, the singer is willing to continue with the relationship. The closing lines, "Do you belong to me? Maybe me too. I might belong to you", indicate uncertainty one last time, and the song ends on a note of unresolved ambiguity.

fallout NV is wild man... game will have you killing a man for 7 bottle caps while thinking you just made bank
@pizzarequiem3448
STAR bottle caps, not the same
@ArtyoumPlays
and I did make bank
@nagger8216
@Pizza requiem That just makes it worse since they're basically useless lol. Too bad you can't trade them because they're quest items, they'd probably be the bottle cap equivalent of a hundred dollar bill
@ayojit8706
Or you could just have him give them to you.
@ericlembeck3753
@Ayo Jit now where would the fun be in that?
@Big-BossX
Left the poor mans journal like
"No need, this story ends here" and walked off 😂
@HonkHonkler
Ultimate insult because at least their last note or journal is their final thoughts written down that you hold on to as a minor form of trophy/remembrance of that person. Not taking it means it gets lost to the wasteland lol.
