|
Losing all my friends Losing them to drinking and to driving Losing all my friends I want it back (perhaps this is self explanitory) Slipping out the back Did you really think we wouldn�t notice? Slipping out the back In the pouring rain (I think maybe it was necessary to leave home without parental permission) Yeah Yeah But you loved your wife You were always faithful to her always Buried both the kids In the summer sun (the parents, maybe, lost more than one child to the military?) Praying for this life Huddled in the brig all with the shipmates Praying for this life And I dropped the bomb (I believe this is CENTRAL to this song.... I believe that like in "Untitled 02 (Brother)" his brother joined the military (Navy, most likely) Hence "praying for his life, huddled in the brig all withh shipmates") Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah, yeah What you waiting for Searching for his brother In an empty room across the hall Is he coming back (obviously he still wants to walk into his brother's room and find him there. nd wonders if he will see him alive again...) Listening at night Waiting for a sound to come up the stairs Listening at night Waiting for the sound of the car park (anyone who has ever lost a family member to the service of their country should understand this.... waiting for the serviceman and chaplain to come to the door with a terrible letter.... ) Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah, yeah Call him up this summer On the phone Need to know what it feels like again Summer skin Found another lover Tell him straight, call him up again I'll call him up again, yeah Call him up again Tying both your shoes and Looking past the ocean for the signal Waiting for a body In a open box (again, fairly self explanitory) They don't send you letters They don't telephone you and they don't send They don't send you letters But you're waiting for them You write him, yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah, yeah Yeah Call him up this summer On the phone Need to know what it feels like again I'll call him up again Call him up this summer On the phone Need to know what it feels like again (this song says so much to me, and it's definately one of my favorites.... I know we all hear what we want to hear in the lyrics of songs, but this one and untitled 02 really speak volumes to me, though I have not lost my brother, I can not imagine what it would do to me if ever I did... I don't know Jesse's story, or if he even had a brother in the service, but that's what I hear... thanks) |
