| Radiohead – Everything in Its Right Place Lyrics | 22 years ago |
|
Id heard that this song was written during the production of the album.. The band were having a number of difficulties and argument and this shows Thom's feelings at that time.' yesterday i woke up sucking on a lemon' - therefore looking miserable. The 'two colours in his head' are most probably black and white, showing that there is only a right and wrong way that he feels the album could be done. Eventually everything is put in its right place on the album 'kid A'. The words found on the radiohead webpage show some of the unincluded lyrics that were meant to be in the song about 'nothing but blue skies from now on. no ghosts no skeletons. ' This is the relief felt after the album had finally been put together.. there are no more 'skeletons in the closet' to disrupt it. |

i think its a description of how he is left missing his ex after a breakup. The first few lines describe that horrible, unavoidable ( 'i cant be saved' ) time at night, when all the defences you put up during the day, about not thinking about that person, come down. 'Tides that I tried to swim against, have put me down upon my knees' the trouble that cant be named, are his inexpressible emotions and the tigers that need to be tamed could possibly symbolise the ferocity of his love for which he needs to deal with. the 'you are' part of the song is quite profound, and quite a philosophical statement (descartes? ) about the existance of man.. she just simply 'is' .. either he just doesnt need words to describe what she means to him, or he in unable to find ones that could ever do her justice. The next part shows more about his discomfort without her, the ticking clocks could just represent how aware he is of the time he is without her. He regrets what he did which must have caused the breakup 'I could not stop what you now know' and wishes she would come and take away these waves of misery and regret that are affecting him so badly. Am i a part of the cure or the disease could be him wondering if he would do any good for her, or if he were to enter her life again would he just make the situation worse. He concludes with saying how he misses her, how nothing else can compare to her, and how much he wants to be back with her. but this of course is just my interpretation lol and i know there are loads of others.. great song :) |
