A Dead Person Breathed On Me! Lyrics
Anchors for my legs.
Wings jut out my shoulder blades.
I can go anywhere.
I'm trapped in a mirror.
And you're certainly no hammer.
Whose touch nothing outruns
But the craters of the arctic moon,
My burning eyes are after you.
In your painted town I'll rot
As another nameless block.
What's learned won't quickly be forgot.
demolitionxlover I think you covered it. The song "For a Dreamer..." expresses this idea even more of escaping and the next song (The Great Affair) is, not coincidentally, about escaping past the bounds of Wonderland.
The artwork shows the picture of the female character the male character loves, so this could be the deciding point in his life: he wants to leave, but cannot. This world is a mess, but there is a shining ray of hope.
0.o woah first comment.
anyways, i could be completely wrong, but i think this song is about someone who feels trapped in their small town. he's in love with someone else that's trapped in that town ["i'm trapped in a mirror, and you're certainly no hammer"] he loves her, so he's not going to leave the town ["my burning eyes are after you"] but he doesn't really mean anything to her, he's just another boy. ["so add another notch, in your painted town i'll rot as another nameless block."]
so yeah. that's pretty much the best i could do.
the title, if i'm correct, is a line from National Lampoon's Vacation. Not that has anything to diwth the actual song.
