Why...
Why...
How many times do I have to try and tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey
This kind of trouble's only just begun
(Only just begun)
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn
To keep your big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
Falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Tell me
Why...
Why...
I may be mad, I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out
Turning inside out
Tell me
Why...
Why...
Tell me
Why...
Why...
This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that summers bring
These are the tears we shared
This is the fear, this is the dread
A lot of conscience off my head
And these are the years that we have spent
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel
(Why...)
Don't think you know how I feel
I said think you know what I feel
Why...
Why...
Why...
How many times do I have to try and tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey
This kind of trouble's only just begun
(Only just begun)
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn
To keep your big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
Falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Tell me
Why...
Why...
I may be mad, I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out
Turning inside out
Tell me
Why...
Why...
Tell me
Why...
Why...
This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that summers bring
These are the tears we shared
This is the fear, this is the dread
A lot of conscience off my head
And these are the years that we have spent
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel
(Why...)
Don't think you know how I feel
I said think you know what I feel
Why...
Why...

No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
