doesn't take a neurosurgeon to realize it's about unrequited love...not that many neurosurgeons listen to longwave...but...anyway...i don't think he ever had this girl...seems to me he's sitting here...being friends with her...playing the prototypical "platonic guy who cares" role for this chick...he watches as she gives her heart to someone else...someone who's really not right for her...and this guy knows it...and he also knows he IS right for her...he's what she's searching for...he sees how they COULD be together and happy...but...now...that's not going to happen...because she's given love to that other guy...same story we've all heard a million times in different ways...but it sounds better coming out of this band... |

first of all, this is an amazingly haunting song...the sound is a metaphor, in itself...it wavers back and forth between echoed, melancholic nostalgia and a full, rich present...the lyrics correspond with this...guy talking about a loved one who's seriously screwed up their life in the past...emotional wreckage..."ghosts eternally lost inside"...that's the melancholic nostalgia part...moving on, the guy says he doesn't care about that past..."it's nothing"...and whoever he's talking about is all-important...she/he is the only thing he needs...the past is nothing...the present everything..."this right here is all i want"...that's the full present...the music embodies the lyrics and vice versa...i love it... |
