This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
It's bugging me, grating me
And twisting me around
Yeah, I'm endlessly caving in
And turning inside out
'Cause I want it now, I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking out, I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control
Yeah, it's holding me, morphing me
And forcing me to strive
To be endlessly cold within
And dreaming I'm alive
'Cause I want it now, I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
I'm not breaking down, I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control
And I want you now, I want you now
I'll feel my heart implode
And I'm breaking out, escaping now
Feeling my faith erode
And twisting me around
Yeah, I'm endlessly caving in
And turning inside out
'Cause I want it now, I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking out, I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control
Yeah, it's holding me, morphing me
And forcing me to strive
To be endlessly cold within
And dreaming I'm alive
'Cause I want it now, I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
I'm not breaking down, I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control
And I want you now, I want you now
I'll feel my heart implode
And I'm breaking out, escaping now
Feeling my faith erode

No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
I personally think this song is more about filling internal greed to "indulgence". It's about everything. Perversion.. doing things you know are wrong, but doing it anyway for self fufillment. Not looking at long time effects of what you're doing, as what a lot of youths do.
"feeling my faith erode", quite simply places the entire song.
Does anyone else think this song is sexy?
Or is it just me....
I do too
I dooooo!!<br /> But Time Is Running Out is Sexier!!!
here, here! ..all their heavier songs are dead sexy, dead filthy sexy
i has to agree something about that one desire that u cant have, the one girl u cant get w/ or something of that nature just seems sexy
@muse girl no i totally agree, it is so sexy, a harsh gritty sexy feeling. the urgency here is almost desperate! fucking love it....
@muse girl psssh, nope, it is all you! Lol, sike, hell yes it's sexy. I think just about every song from muse is sexy. It's always a dark, romantic feeling with these awesome, classical/ symphony type, dramatic feeling that gets infused. I don't speak music very well, pardon me please.
@muse girl it is indeed, especially the music video during the solo, where it shows the girl kinda stripping a little. It was engraved on my mind when I first saw it, now I remember it everytime I hear it.
Maybe we need to consider every subjective opinion here folks. Maybe just maybe this song is about the desires we all have, your faith erodes. Erosion slowly wears away no? So maybe you are already involved, then you start to erode your faith, to whatever. You become dependant on this lust for freedom, for your own self indulgence, to satiate your thirst. Perhaps being in love is never enough, because everyone wants everything, now. And your world implodes from the weight of guilt and awareness of the bad outcomes of actively pursuing selfish desire.
Because being in love, is never honestly enough. Maybe that is what the song tries to depict to us?
Hysteria....what can i say, unique? well that too but simply one of THE best songs i've ever heard. Tune is great, lyrics are deep and the video....well the video's expressive. When the guy screams out in anger it fit the mood perfectly i felt, it displayed the guy's pain perfectly. To me, the song is about loving someone so much that its always on your mind. No matter where you are or what you're doing, or who you're with, the person's on your mind. Simply the best, one of my fav songs.
IN a interview, its aboutbeing over obssesed with a girl/guy, and the obessision jsut leaves you with hysteria/anger/range, hence the tile :)
A couple years ago I went to a party and saw my x-gf making out with some preppy looking guy. I started drinking a lot (bc I was just pissed to see that), and about an hour later I definitely lost control... it wasn't my finest moment. But the lyrics to this song make perfect sense of the hysteria and rage I had building up inside of me. Every time I listen to this song, it doesn't make me mad or rage or anything, but it reminds me of that night... haha.
@JSK This was my first thoughts of the song too
Am I the only one that sees this song as kind of like... I don't know... Someone is trapped within their own mind, trying to escape from it, but it's capturing them? And they're trying to love someone, but at the same time, they can't, because they are completely trapped within their own mind?
I don't know, sorry if this doesn't make sense, lol. I've not seen the video, I don't want to ruin the song for me. xD
@MusicalParanoia I can see where you are coming from ... sort of like they are having an argument within their own mind between "two" vocies
The video 2 this song reminds me a lil of American Beauty
The vid is about this guy who calls a hooker to his hotel room...after filming her while they get it on, he later becomes obsessed with her - she freaks out and leaves the room. He follows her wherever she goes, filming her...he then wakes up one morning (the start of the vid) but can't remember what happened previously until he reviews the tapes he made of her. He bursts into a fit of rage when he realises he'll never have her...then the video ends where the story begins (as opposed to the video beginning where the story is about to end).
I think the song and the vid are about being obsessed with a certain girl, in a creepy kind of way.
I definitely agree with you here. The fact about him never being able to have her I think also he may have not known she was a hooker in the beginning. If you watch the video she goes from innocent to provocative which is where he looses it. I think it went from experimenting with a video, to a stalkerish crush, to finding out she is a hooker in which case he goes crazy.
Straightforward rock song. "I want you"
this song rocks! i think the vidoe is about some guy wakin up in a trashed hotel room an not knowin what the hell is goin on, then lookin back over his videos, he realises that he must have been stalkin some girl, who he eventually worked up the courage to talk to an got lucky. he got a bit violent so she freaked out an left, makin him even worse, so... poor hotel cleanin lady. whateva, my opinion, might be wrong, might be right, either way that guy is HOT!!!
