| Portugal. The Man – Lay Me Back Down Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
took out some lyrics that weren't in the song ----------------- I remember things, not many things I don't remember where my feet touch the ground but I remember every word and every sound I remember things, not many things I don't remember when the ships hit the sea but I remember my name and what they paid for me Lay me back down in the bed with the cold hearted people Listen to them work Lay me back down in the holes and the warmth that we've warmed up Lay me back down Lay me back down I remember things, not many things I don't remember presidents or what they did but I remember the wars and just who profited I remember things, not many things I don't remember places in time but I remember the love and just who gave me it Lay me back down In the bed with the cold hearted people and listen to them work Lay me back down in the holes and the warmth that we've warmed up Listen to them work I hear them calling me back to the ground I hear them calling me back where I belong |

more accurate version ------------------ I don't know how we're created but I know that I know we all die Go pick up all your tools and build a roof I'll pick up all mine and build one too I just do as I do Yeah I do as I please And that's all I can do I don't know how we're created but I know that I know we all die Listen to the cars just passing through Help out all those friends that helped you too You just do as you do Yeah you do as you please And that's all you can do I don't know how we're created but I know that I know we all die Open up your arms and hold on to Everything you own that owns you too And just let it all go 'Cause we do as we please And that's all we can do That's all we can do I don't know how we're created but I know that I know we all die And that's all we can do |

I think if it is a religious reference, it makes more sense to me to interpret it more as "not believing" in creation/religion, at least not organized religion : "the sun, it rose up from the belly of sea found its bedding up in those clouds it hung for years still, i don't believe while colors rained and poured from the cotton-bound pools in the drips those drips stained us all still, i don't believe" I get big a "the world is awesome" vibe from this song, and the "still, I don't believe" parts make it seem like it's saying that even though there are these magnificent things in the world, but he doesn't necessarily think it was the work of a god in the traditional sense. Specifically that maybe he thinks the idea of creation makes sense but he doesn't quite buy into it. But that's just my interpretation; it could go a lot of different ways depending on your perspective. |
