as for the "don't you love when your misheard lyrics turn out to be the actual lyrics" the new we are the empty song (BREAK) has a line that gets repeated two times (post chorus and then outro) that goes "I hate the way you take my hopes and dreams, I hate the way you r-pe my energy, You're selfish, useless, I can't do this"
i legit thought i was mishearing the "I hate the way you r-pe my energy" part but nope. but in this context i think it means "corrupt" like "corrupt my energy" or smthn
