twlight,you hit it right on the hammer.That one lyric does sound really tired and likes he's just giving up.

The Goo Goo Dolls – Iris Lyrics 22 years ago
alright,I've been a fan of the goo goo dolls for a while so I have read countless interviews,been to live shows,seen recorded live shows,so I am 99% sure I know what this song is about

After their big success with A Boy Named Goo and Name,the goo goo dolls were hit hard by critics.Some claimed they were sellouts(which they are NOT,they just grew up.Who wants to see a 35 year old doing punk?),some claimed that name was nothing but light radio trash.

On top of that,johnny(lead singer) ran into some heavy writers block.He couldn't get anything out.Robby(the goo goo dolls bassist and johnny's best friend) wanted him to come out to LA,and try and shake things up for once.

Soon after he did the recording studio gave him a call.They wanted him to write a song for the soon to be released City of Angels.He reluctantly agreed.He went to a screening of the movie,and was so moved by the character seth.He said that he was touched by the seth's sudden decision to become human...he just jumped without really thinking.

After he saw this movie,he went back to the hotel room and wrote the song that night.Pretty amazing if you ask me.



If you want to know what each of the lyrics means,just watch the movie.It's all there."you bleed just to know you're alive" is about how seth first becomes a human and is surprised to find blood.....it's all there


But really,the song means what it means to you.It's about how you interperet it,not how it was written
