attackthedark, i like your interpretation; i never put together the "where i end and you begin" line. And Ms. exploding girl, the mushroom idea was just something i was throwing up in the air. No need to get all worked up, Hmmm.. Lets apply some logic: this is just a website to share different interpretations of songs |

"the dinosaurs roam the earth" could be his way of saying that mankind's fate could be the same as the dinosaurs - total extinction. He is symbolically calling men dinosaurs. No one thinks about this. Everyone thinks that mankind is an indestructable race. But extinction is just as likely an outcome for us as it was for the dinosaurs. Especialy with the combination of nuclear weapons and misuse of governmental power that plagues our word. With this interpretation it sounds as if Thom feels that this will be the outcome if we continue down the path we are on. He dowsn't want to have any part in it. Therefore he feels very distant from the world as if he is watching it from "up in the clouds". Don't know about the "I will eat you alive; there will be no more lies" lines. A reference to psilocybin clearing away the conditioning and lies he has developed throughout his life under a particular government/ way of thinking? I think Ive gone to far |
