| Nada Surf – Zen Brain Lyrics | 11 years ago |

I always thought that zen brain is a super brain (like the song says) which can push all your problems away by thinking "this is not a big deal" i think that's what the song is saying, that all your problems are in your brain and you can make them go away by saying to yourself that you can get over it "it's not such a big deal" Altough it might not seems like it |

| I'm pretty sure it's "i'm just a door" if you listen close enough in live shows and the studio version it sounds about right. | |

(Sorry about my english) I think this song has two parts : One in which matthew writes about "the story that happened in his kitchen" about how he saw the fruit flies And another part in which he compares himself to a fruit fly. he says that no matter which direction he goes he can't find a reason for it at all : "left straight right straight i can’t find a reason i know i’ll keep going but i can’t find a reason" he is saying that he can't "land" from the situation he's in : "nothing looks right nothing smells right i can’t land" "geometric patterns smearing out of control" : in this part of the song i think he's talking about the fruit flies like he did before : "flying jerky patterns like snowflakes in the air" then he compares himself to a fruit fly again, he says that he dosen't have the energy to do too much or go to far : "only have enough gas left for the beercan to the bowl" just like the fruit fly have only enough energy to fly from a beer can to a bowl. "what can you do but go on?" : at this point of the song I think he's talking to himself : what can you do but go on when your in a bad place or situation. (awesome line by the way!) "oh no you make your own mistakes i cannot bring them back to you oh no you make your own mistakes i cannot measure up to you" : at this point I think matthew is talking to himself again about how he makes he's own mistakes or something like that... I don't really know how to try to explain these lines but you can take it wherever you want :) this second part begins when all of the band starts to play after the line : "you’ve got nowhere to go" I think this is why the song is called : "Fruit fly" and not : "Fruit flies" because matthew is comparing himself to a fruit fly Well, at least that's how I see it :) |

I think also that this song is about suicide You can also see alot of references about death in the music video I also believe that this song is speaking about another side of a person a side in which a person don't want to become "a dark side" if you might like to call it that the person dosen't want to let the otherside take control of him so he's commiting suicide You can see from the lyrics that anthony wrote : "Slitin' my throat It's all I ever.." that he's threatening to kill him self and slit his throat he tells that his throat is all he ever had... |
