I'm pretty sure this song is about going on stage for the first time. The room's green It's got writing on the wall It's got one chair Its kinda small -Before you go on stage, you're hang out in a Green Room, usually they're small rooms. Dirty shoes Running past the door. And then you go round Beat yourself up, Ten minutes to go, And I wanna go home Ten minutes to go, Yeah, I've got to go home Ten minutes to go, And the air, it don't feel clear Everybody disappear, you're In it on your own -Nerves, stage fright, you go on without any help, especially if you're doing a monologue or solo piece of music, but eventually you have to face it and ignore all the people in the audience. Fourteen, Intimidated, and she's just fourteen She's getting pulled from the opposite side, Until it breaks down Blame it on the wrong crowd Stay, more make up, hair dye -She's inexperienced and shouldn't be performing, and blames it all on the audience when it was really her own fault. You can't sleep, You know it's over but you just can't sleep You've gotta face it, Gotta go outside And do the day-walk Living with the lights off, Ain't nobody home -Nerves the next day and the worry that someone will recognize you. (I guess, I don't really get this part.) The rest of it is pretty much the same idea :) Just throwing that out there, that's what I get from it. |
