Blonde Redhead – Chi É e Non É Lyrics 17 years ago
THE ITALIAN TRANSLATION

Who is and Who isn't

you know
you're not like me
always know where you are
like you know how much you want
of that you want
but me instead I don't want to wake myself
to think of you

man, young man passion of the game
fire
pit
the streets path of night
every day
by evening, this evening
don't wake me
to talk to you

to want, not to be
who is and who isn't
doesn't know
the pleasure
doesn't know
of knowing
doesn't know
who to love

you know
you're kind
always are
like you want
when you know where you are
of that you want
but me
instead I don't want to wake myself
nor think of you

the fury the indifference
of who is and who isn't
every moment is camouflage
daily emotions
but I,
yes I
dont want to wake myself
and neither to think of you

to want not to be
who is who isnt
doesn't know pleasure
doesn't know of knowing
doesn't know who to love
to want not to be who is and who isn't

I should be pretty much on the dot for the translation although corrections are welcomed. Either way, I'm sure you'd get the meaning of the song better.

Armor for Sleep – My Town Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this is just a song about letting go and not caring about what anyone has to say about you. He's running through town, screaming (scaring kids and people in their houses in the process), smiling at the parked cars..clearly he doesn't care about what people have to say about him. He's probably either snapped or done something liberating. I think the end is simple...he's not dead...he just fell asleep on the street and people from his town are "attempting" to wake his old self up....meaning he's moved on and become a new person who doesn't care. Well, that's my interpretation.

A Perfect Circle – The Outsider Lyrics 19 years ago
from aperfectcircle.org...

"What is 'The Outsider' about?

Billy: "I mean it seems pretty straight-forward to me. You know, that... someone that doesn't understand why someone would do this, just can't understand why someone would take their own life... or be so destructive as to get almost to that point. And you know, some people are just made that way and some aren't. I mean it seems pretty straight-forward to me, but it's a pretty emotional song for us."

Side Note: Coincidentally, a mutual friend of the band's committed suicide shortly after the song was recorded. The band has not disclosed the deceased's name."
