| Sneaker Pimps – Half Life Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| This song is beautiful. Love the mid eastern beat and influence in the instruments. I think it has a few meanings, maybe half life refers to a half life lived before the person(s) he is speaking about, the half life now without them, which is like half of a half life, yet being with them never felt whole. That's one interpretation. The phantom limb bee sting- is feeling the sting over and over though that person is absent and gone. Like corner says about feeling like a limb has been chopped off- it's like the phantom bee coming to sting the phantom limb. Our conceptions inside our heads are the other halves to the conceptual reality in the physical world. Our ghosts, memories, it's in a way half of the real thing. There is so much here and there are usually more than two or three meanings to a song and sometimes the artist doesn't realize it until later. Real art/inspiration creates its-self in a way. | |
