maps lyrics yeah yeah yeahsWhat is the meaning of the song "Maps" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs,what do the lyrics mean to you?

I hate the song but i think it is about finding the one true person you belong with and if you have found them its how you belong together.
i think its about the guy she loved who took her love for granted and he'll never find someone that loves him as much as she does!


it's fairly obvious haha and i think it's based on a true story (regarding Karen O's life)

:)

NO ITS CAUSE HER BOYFRIEND LEFT HER AFTER THEY PROMOTED HIM TO A NEW JOB AND SHE WAS WRITING THIS SONG WHILE HE WAS PREPARmaps lyrics yeah yeah yeahsING TO LEAVE SO YEA ITS ABOUT HER EX BOYFRIEND :]

it is about prejudice
and miscommunication
(:
I think this song is in the form of dialogue. One person is talking about packing up and leaving and the other person is saying "wait." The second person is telling them how much they love them, implying that they want them to stay. I think it is called maps because there is a decision about which direction to go in life, to stay or to go away. Just my interpretation.
Oh, I love that maps lyrics yeah yeah yeahssong! I used to listen to it and sing it all the time after it came out.

"Wait, they don't love you like I love you. Wait, they don't love you like I love you. Maaaaaaaps, wait, they don't love you like I love you".
I don't know what the meaning is, that's a good question. I've just always liked singing it and never really thinking about what it means. I like their new song "Gold lion". Now that's an awesome song too.
