Man, that is a good interpretation! I see him as feeling as if his life is over and his soul is dead, longing for that zest for living he had when he was much younger. It seems as if he is a middle aged guy that questions whether he means anything anymore to anyone in the world. He has no clue how to be true to his ownself and just wants to get out. |

I was thinking the same, but I think it goes even deeper than having an affair. The dark side we all have manifests itself in many ways. Insecurity, addiction, depression, etc. I hear this guy as someone who doubts he is worthy of the gifts he has been given. He believes he has "stolen" an identity he feels he can not live up to. He has been living a lie for so long that he does'nt even believe he exists anymore. This is one of the best songs ever written by any artist - especially the Tracks version. |
