this is my interpretation of the song. Passed the road to your house That you never called home (To me this is the place the 'person' grew up, but it was a house, not a home for whatever reason) Where they turned out your lights Though they say you'll never know (to me the 'they turned out your lights' part could be reference to the pills and drugs mentioned later, some of those drugs can really change a person.. so to say they turned out your lights could be reference to that, losing spark or life. and i believe the 'they say you'll never know' is their denial that anything changed for the negative) I remember running through the wet grass Falling a step behind Both of us never tiring Desperately wanting (i don't know- possible attempted escape or maybe a throw back to a time in youth when they were happy) When they pumped out your guts And filled you full of those pills You were never quite right Deserving all the chills (i think this is self explanatory but the 'deserving all the chills' part not so much...) They say the worst is over Kicked it over and ran Then they ask what went wrong When they turn you on again They turn you on again (people around (who? family?) believe its all fixed, the drugs are administered and all SHOULD be ok but it isn't and they wonder why?) I remember running through the wet grass Falling a step behind Both of us never tiring Desperately wanting Kick them right in the face Make them wish they weren't born And if they bring up your name Well they'll say you won the war (blame shifting? maybe they let themselves believe that they tried to do everything for the best but the person fought them every step of he way and in the end WON in that they gave up trying") Baby burst in the world Never given a chance Then they ask what went wrong When you never had it right Well, you never had it right (i liked an above theory of how can anything go wrong when it never started out right?) Oh the letters have dropped off Though they say you got them all I finally figured out some things you'll never know (i get the impression that they are talking about actual letters perhaps he?she wrote again and again for a long time but over time the responding letters dropped off and the suspicion is they were being withheld from the person, and the narrator seems to have gained some insight to the whole situation). Take back your life Let me inside We'll find the door If you care, if you care to anymore (a last ditch attempt at getting away and healing) I remember running through the wet grass and falling a step behind Both of us never tiring Desperately wanting Great song no matter what :) |
