These lyrics appear to describe someone wrestling with depression. Given our current understanding of how depression works (c 2025), it’s important to note that many clinicians view it as part of one’s personality. More specifically, the DSM-V classifies this condition as depressive personality disorder. This detail is important because depression, when managed, can still linger in the shadows, waiting to erupt… often at the worst possible time.

Here’s why these lyrics describe depression…

You're too ignorant to fail, I can't look you in the eye And I can't even tell if you've been tellin' me a lie Every time you...

What are those three words? "I love you" perhaps?

Incredibly beautiful song. One of the best songs of the 2000-2010 decade.

A forgotten song of the early 1960s. Great tune. Pat Boone's version was actually a cover. The original was by David Hess.

One of the best songs of the early '60s. I love the early rock 'n' roll sound: horns, guitar, drums and a nice voice. It's crazy to think he came before The Beatles and other big names. A few years before rock 'n' roll took off.

No need to discuss the meaning of the song!

I'm glad I finally looked up the lyrics. This came out in high school and till now I always heard (the lights are going out, I long to pull the plug) 😬 I always wondered what the meaning of that was. 🤣

lyrics and the obvious sexual meaning aside, i see the song as critical of over-commercialisation of things within modern western societies, things such as sex - supported by the music video

For people who don't know the meaning of this song, Benson has found the one true love. Doing so he is asking her to stay with him. Even asking God not to take her away from him.

I really don't care what this song is about. I just want to say it's a direct rip off of the synth-pop classic, "Fade To Grey", by Visage. Listen! - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_Enkz4PJgQ

And according to wikipedia, Osbourne didn't even write the song, Linda Perry did...or stole it I should say.
