I think this song is about a man who is either in some kind of coma or drug over dose drying to get back to his love and family again. ... Just hear me out. Little black submarines Operator please -- I believe this is an analogy for god Put me back on the line -- consciousness Told my girl I’d be back -- Love Operator please -- God This is wreckin my mind Oh can it be The voices calling me -- Friends or family They get lost And out of time -- He can't really sense them or how to get where the voices are coming from I should’ve seen it glow -- What he was looking for But everybody knows That a broken heart is blind That a broken heart is blind Pick you up, let you down When I wanna go To a place I can hide --- This and the above are the drugs or whatever happened to get him into this state -- You know me, I had plans But they just disappeared To the back of my mind -- He had given up when this OD or accident happened Oh can it be The voices calling me -- Friend or family They get lost And out of time -- He can't really sense them or how to get where the voices are coming from I should’ve seen a glow -- What he's looking for But everybody knows That a broken heart is blind That a broken heart is blind Treasure maps fallen trees -- His mind Operator please -- God Call me back when it’s time -- Accepting his fate Stolen friends and disease -- Accepting his fate Operator please -- God Patch me back to my mind -- Make him conscious Oh can it be The voices calling me -- Friends and family They get lost And out of time -- He can't really sense them or how to get where the voices are coming from I should’ve seen a glow -- What he was looking for But everybody knows That a broken heart is blind That a broken heart is blind That a broken heart is blind |
