paloalto – Sleeping Citizens Lyrics 19 years ago
HERE ARE THE CORRECT LYRICS:

"
Safe, I'm walking out the door
My head's doing somersaults
I don't know if I'm clean
Run, I'm jumping off the fence
I'm halfway to pay the rent
I can't make it out here

Karma makes a home
Sleeping citizens
Come in, lock the door
It's how you play the game

Cross, it's easy when you run
It's always when you find
Half the day has gone by

Karma makes a home
Sleeping citizens
Come in, lock the door
It's how you play the game

Well I've seen my own reflection
Running down off the sidewalk
It's moving faster than the sun can

Karma makes a home
Sleeping citizens
Come in, lock the door
It's how you play the game
"


As far as the interpretation is concerned, is the singer asking "sleeping citizens" (couples making love outdoors) to "come in", "lock the doors" and "play the game" in their homes? Or is it something deeper? I m still wondering ...

Robbie Williams – Feel Lyrics 20 years ago
Hey all!
I have this personal hobby of writing about the meanings that I derive from the songs I relate to. It was a pleasant surprise to stumble upon this site. I wish I had known abt it earlier ... I could have contributed much before. Anyways, better late than never!!

For this song, I am amazed there r so few posts (compared to other good songs tht I've browsed on this site). The song's way too beautiful. At least for me.
I could relate to this song in my own way. Perhaps it wasn't really written with the same meaning. The earlier interpretations (esp. the one about overcoming drug-addiction) seem more logical and likely. But whenever I hear the song I picture a guy who desperately wants to confess his love but for some reason(s) holds himself back...


------------------------------
"Come and hold my hand
I wanna contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given"

I long for your presence; I want u to be always with me. (But do I desrve it?) .
You r my life and I wanna live. I wanna bare my mind completely for you.
But I can't. (Moreover I aint sure if I should ! )


------------------------------
"I sit and talk to God
And he just laughs at my plans
My head speaks a language
I don't understand"

After trying everythin -. from 'fighting back' to 'running away' - in vain, I pretend rationalizing.
But I know it's useless. So much that even He laughs at me.
I don't know what to do . I can't trust my own mind.. (I think I m going mad.)


------------------------------
"I just wanna feel real love
Feel the home that I live in
I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste"

Somewhere deep inside I do crave for your (real) love and that we have a 'home' that I had always dreamt of (the home that I live in) (unlike the one I've been living in all these years)
But at the same time I don't know if i deserve it.
My life has been such a waste that whatever i've lived is more than I deserve (I got too much life)
