rubius45@hotmail.com - my friend and i think petals is about getting raped. she used the line, "i will tear the petals off of you" in asking for it and that was about the time she staged dove and got stripped and groped. she uses the line again in petals. it also talks about the world as a whole being a war and a whore. plus deflowering is a term for rape. "all the darling buds of my, they fall with no sound, they carry you down" no one knows what happend, it didn't affect them, but it makes her feel like shit.

insomniac9@hotmail.com - "Petals"...not really sure, I just like the echo from "Asking For It" in the chorus...ends the album beautifully.

celebrity_skin@gurlmail.com - "Petals" my favorite song off of CS, is probably about being young and inocent and then growing up to find out that not verything in this world is perfect.
