This song can be seen in a “God related” mode but also in a more pragmatical and less spiritual way. I’m gonna to explain. First of all, I want to “analyze” the song by verses. “Well here we go at it three years later Will you help me to dream it all up again Tired of the same song everyone's singing I'd rather be lost with you instead” The singer recalls something on the past that happened to him, three years before, with another person —we gonna suppose that is a girl-, then he ask this girl, this unknown person, if is going to help him to “revive” his dream, his illusion again. He’s tired of the same words that people is always talking and repeating, so he wants, he prefers to “get lost” with this girl. It seems that the singer has some deep feelings with this girl. “Don't you come around here, come around here anymore Dragging my fears, dragging my fears out the door” He says that she never came back; she was the girl who eased his fears, who eased his feelings. “All I have, all I have, all I have, well, you know it's yours Every breath, every step, every moment I'm looking for All I have, all I have, all I have, is yours And you're watching my heart break a little bit more My heart break a little bit more My heart break a little bit more” All that he haves gives to her, everything, every little thing, a moment, a breath, everything. Anyway it seems that she “ignores” him and he is blue so his heart breaks every second a little bit, more. “Is it cold yet in New York City? 'Round here, the trees been blowing up red And everyone's talking about change on the airwaves But I still got you on my breath” It seems that she doesn’t live in the same town, she’s in NYC and he asks in a particular way how is she and what she is doing. He may miss her. “Lord I'm still trying at this my hardest Would you pick us all up from a fall Rip a little corner off the darkness Just a crack of light in the middle of it all” He is moaning because he is doing anything he can but he still is ignoring him, he sees that everything is falling apart and he wants to survive, live it all up, he needs some kind of light, some clue, something, to get out of this spiral he’s living on. That's my point of view ;) D.- |
