The song is about your soulmate dying before you do, at the end of your days. All that’s left is to wait for death, to be with them again. |

Funny, I just found a translation myself and while the words are radically different the meaning is the same. Here is what my friend translated for me...
I killed someone and survived for a long time
The sky seemed fake
I didnt have any fear
I looked down at the town and dreamed about
something
I made a fire everywhere
I didnt remember what is the name
I can stand everything
I dont need help
I want to be the way I am
(couldnt understand second verse)
dont look at me
i feel i am naked
i want to be awaek
I can stand everything
I dont need help
I want to be the way i am
i think i like yours better thank you so much |

When i first skimmed this album this was my least favorite, but then i listened to the album straight through (the way this album was meant to be heard) and this ended up being my favorite one by them. Reminds me of a beach party... |

I always looked at it this way: If metal were different kinds of explosives, this song would be pure, 100% nitroglycerin... not sure if those lyrics are right though... any why aren't there more posts on this!? |

My fav song of all time by far. Shame its never going to be released, but I have 2 different recordings of the Spain concert, another recording from another concert (not sure which), the demo version found on meeting people is easy, and a really well done remix of the demo by "Atarashii." You can find it on youtube if you just type in big boots. |

I recently fell in love with this song. Reminds me of my prom... and my prom is exactly what you guys are saying the song is about, spying on people and wanting to sleep with them. I hate my school. Anyway yeah just my take... i think he's just saying "bum bum bum ba-dum" after the sorry about the dark part, IceCuban06. Not positive though... |

thecriticfl, relax, i'm not "pushing" my interpritation on anyone. I agree, it is poetry, and its not linear. When i went to leave a comment on this song, the box says "What does this song mean to you?" and thats exactly what i put in. I'm merly speaking my thoughts on it. |

This song's meaning comes to me the easiest of all the songs on this album. The song is about sex be4 your ready; krug mearly used metaphors that can have sexual meaning to paint a different picture. The first verse, wrecking ball be4 buildings fall, and lighting rods having to watch the storm clouds come, is about unwanted pregnancy. The second verse, pious men, dirty fiends, and us ones in between is about how it can happen to any of us, and the creatures that eat their babies has to do with abortion. Stopping to think about the taste being about actually thinking about what your doing, especially on the womens part. The thrid verse is about the mental trauma and the reality of it all, the fustration especially showing in the "where the fuck did the sun go" line. The fourth verse is easy; its about learning about what your doing be4 u do it, especially in sex. Mother me, (teach me) before you eat me (have sex with me). The 5th verse is about paranoia, and learning to cope with mistakes and get over them... and no matter how bad it seems, the world is not going to stop turning... "burry its head inside the world when the day is done." The final verse, is about how nothing is going to change these things, and how he's going to continue to live his life, now that he knows what he knows, as should everyone else (he, I, speaks in tounges). |

Having used this website for a while, this song finally convinced me to get an account to express my comments. I'm rather reluctant with that sort of thing... I first heard this song in the early morning, the sky was a beautiful orange blue, and i was on my way to work in a 16 wheel truck. I work as a mover. Its at the end of summer, and school is starting but i've graduated and i'm not starting college for a year. The song, combined with the heavy manual labor i was about to do, really made me second guess taking a year off.... but its too late, as the song said, to change that and insted it made me really depressed. To me, this song is about realizing a mistake and theres no way to change, fix, or go back on it. Whats worse, theres no one there to know, help, or even feel sorry for you. You wanna tell someone but can't... for personal reasons or even not knowing where to begin. That all being said, i think we all need to experience that feeling sooner or later. Its a part of life. |
