What Difference Does It Make? by The Smiths

All men have secrets and here is mine so let it be known
we have been through hell and high tide
I can surely rely on you
and yet you start to recoil
heavy words are so lightly thrown
but I'd still leap in front of a flying bullet for you

So what difference does it make?
so what difference does it make?
it makes none, but now you have gone
and you must be looking very old tonight

The devil will find work for idle hands to do
I stole and I lied, and why? because you asked me to
but now you make me feel so ashamed
because I've only got two hands
well, I'm still fond of you

So what difference does it make?
so what difference does it make?
it makes none, but now you have gone
and your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight

Oh the devil will find work for idle hands to do
I stole and then I lied just because you asked me to
but now you know the truth about me
you won't see me anymore
well, I'm still fond of you

But no more apologies
no more apologies
I'm too tired, I'm so very tired
and I'm feeling very sick and ill today
but I'm still fond of you

MOZ IS GETTING OLD LIKE ME

Well he says he is still fond of her but all he is capable of doing is make passive aggressive comments about how she ruined his life. But oh woe is me the faithful mayrter. This is not love. It's confused fear. Also his hair is bad. And his glasses are nerdy. I never liked this band. And now I know why. And yet I can see why people liked them. They provided what people wanted.

Maybe you are only capable of seeing things in one simple dimension. He says right in the song he knows the relationship was bad. Then you add the dimension that he is likely talking about a same-sex relationship where both are deeply in the closet. PIRATE AGGRO! I'm going to leave this blog. There are only stupid comments.
