wow kelsska, it's a shame you feel that way. i love all the new songs i'm hearing from "far"!! and i agree with kopra, i think this song is about something in your life changing and suddenly you are out of your comfort zones and just want everything back to 'normal'. to me, the second verse is like not wanting to get caught up in the world and its expectations, but you can't help but get caught up in it anyway. the third verse - feeling a bit desperate in your circumstances, considering going against your values, and then getting a reality check or something that puts it in perspective (the selfish brother is a lesser version of the man considering stealing). either that, or it's just talking about human selfishness. i like to think the former :) |

This song is fantastic, Missy is a brilliant songwriter. The version I've been listening to til now has the word "fragile" instead of "jaded" in the chorus, she must have changed it since I suppose. I always thought the song was about a fight between the singer and another person, where the other person doesn't see the vulnerability in the singer and perhaps the underlying reason for why the singer started/continues the fight. The singer simply keeps throwing the argument back on the other person as a sort of cry for help... wanting them to see this vulnerability. I wonder who the songwriter was who she had a fight with? It seems to me like it'd be someone pretty close to her. |

| is "they are one person, they are two alone, they are three together, they are for each other" meaning that the two of them have a strong relationship which forms its own persona, but they are still their individual selves also. so when they are together there are the two of them and the extra persona formed by the joining of both of them? (man i'm bad at explaining things) anyway, just a thought :) | |
