Tanita Tikaram – Twist In My Sobriety Lyrics 12 years ago
There are few things come to my mind every time I listen to this song. I understand that we all see what we have on our minds and it is hard to be off of it. Some alchoholism, some prostituion, some her interview that she meant one night stand.
I'd rather go line by line, so it will be easier for me to put all the puzzles together.
ll God's children need traveling shoes
Drive your problems from here
- Probably she was abused by priest or her father (military)

All good people read good books
Now your conscience is clear
- Well Catholicism let all sin goes away by admitting your sins.
I hear you talk girl
- That’s either her “dark” side or her “dad/priest” talking to her.
Now your conscience is clear


In the morning I wipe my brow
Wipe the miles away
- Obviously she’s going through sleepless nights thinking about abuse.

I like to think I can be so willed
And never do what you say

- Again talking about authority (dads/priest)
I'll never hear you
And never do what you say


Look my eyes are just holograms

- She just a hologram or part of a worldwide female abuse
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
- She probably got attempts of committing suicide,

From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
She promises herself to be sober about that in her own relationships with the men and will teach her son don’t be an abuser. (From my hands you know you'll never be).
That’s how probably priest/dads explaining it to her (like it’s not a big deal):

We just poked a little pie
For the fun people had at night
Late at night don't need hostility
The timid smile and pause to free

She’s trying to switch her mind off the problems by thinking “different thoughts” and referencing to other abused kids.

I don't care about their different thoughts
Different thoughts are good for me
Up in arms and chaste and whole
All God's children took their toll

She’s thinking to open up about the problem, hoping that they will resolve on their own: “You pig out 'til you've seen the light”.
Cup of tea, take time to think, yea
Time to risk a life, a life, a life
Sweet and handsome
Soft and porky
You pig out 'til you've seen the light
Pig out 'til you've seen the light

Failing to go open about it, she starts talking dirty about “people and society”, because they’re simply don’t care. Or at best see things as a “news to sell”.

Half the people read the papers
Read them good and well
Pretty people, nervous people
People have got to sell
News you have to sell.

Foals – Moon Lyrics 12 years ago
end of life, when everything become irrelevant and not important.
Very last moments before last breath. Foals just nailed it.
Border between two worlds, colors changing from black grey and red to white and perfect. Just how it should be. Got little hint of the fear of being alone in refferences to the bride's dress and feelings of the lost home, but it's more like accepting it and moving on. How deep and sincere!
