| Electrasy – Cosmic Castaway Lyrics | 7 years ago |

I think he's talking about getting high, probably on some kind of psychedelic drug, and seeing himself from two different perspectives. He talks about a "chemical freeway", then shifts into talking from the perspective of a higher consciousness and loss of self ("So I am no more"). Then he starts talking about how this experience is different than his usual dreams. In his dreams he wins, but his experience showed him that he's "nothing". He talks about how his typical thoughts harm him (crucifying and poisoning him), but his experience showed him how pointless all of that is. He also talks about how his experience has shielded him from the harm of others, and from desire. I think "beat the alien" might be a reference to him wishing to get rid of his other state of mind and live in the nothingness of that higher state. |

I think this song is about a rebound relationship. The guy fell in love with this girl when was sad and alone: "I've been through the highs, said all my goodbyes, Learned to run before I learned how to crawl." Then he regained his perspective in life and is trying to find a way out of a relationship he no longer wants to be in: "This time is making me slip right through your hands. And now you don't understand, Trying to find love all yourself." I think the chorus is trying to say that when you've already had the best parts of the relationship (in his case the healing), that it's hard to go back to being just a normal couple. |

I think this is a break up song, more or less Don't wanna make it up I Don't wanna let you down I wanna fly away But I'm stuck on the ground He doesn't want to make their relationship up, but he doesn't want to hurt her. He wants to get away from it all, but he feels trapped. So help me decide Help me to make up Make up my mind Wouldn't that save you Wouldn't that save you Wouldn't that save you He wants her to decide, should he stay or go. He thinks if she makes the decision that it will save her from the loss. Watch it all go by Was it really true Is that what it was Was that really you Looking back on their relationship, was there really love there, or did he fall for what she pretended to be. I'm looking back again I'm tracing back the threads You said it was a miss Was it just in my head He looks back and sees the fabric of their relationship unraveling, but he's not sure if he did the right thing. |
