I personally believe it's about suicide. "I've been thinking of combustication as a welcomed vacation from the burdens of the planet earth." Technically it's illegal to commit suicide and according to many major religions immoral. And that's enough to make you want to shoot yourself, knowing that you don't even have a legal right to take your own life. That people just mindlessly judge you constantly. Pardon me if I want to choose what I want to do with my own life. Pardon me that your a dumba**. |

In my opinion this song is two sided like everything in life. This song is like a big gray area. In the beginning he's saying that he is in the background waiting and then he's saying right afterward that he's like an animal trapped in your hot car. He's like an animal dependent one some one else to make sure he doesn't die in the back of a hot car cause he doesn't have sweat glands. So it's clear that he's dependent of this person and waits on them. If you allow your self to be dependent you will always need someone to depend on. This person is all he needs but does he want more that to rely on someone who doesn't want them? Then he says and repeats throughout the song "I am in the middle of your picture Lying in the reeds" Reeds are symbolic of protection, purpose, or even communication. All of which are required in a relationship. You want to feel protected with the person you're relying on to not hurt you emotionally not just physically and you need to feel a purpose when you're in a relationship. And of course communication is a given when it comes to relationships. "I am a moth who just wants to share your light I'm just an insect trying to get out of the night I only stick with you because there are no others" The song could be about a happy relationship but why such a low soft and slow tone and an almost moaning/crying sound when he sings It's alright? If you realized the one person you need is the one person keeping you from being happy do you leave them? For what or who? The are no others. If you don't share your life with them you'll be left alone outside of the light. Is this a love song? Most definitely but do all love songs have to be about being happy. Being in love can be as equally miserable as it can be pleasurable. If it is about someone speaking out about an unhappy relationship they couldn't leave it would make all the more beautiful and inspirational. |
