I may be leaving, but it's okay
To say what you're feeling, but baby not for free
It's called direction
So many times I can see
That the way that you are is rubbing off on me
It's called direction
Did you realise it's not quite time
You look out the window, the trains keep rolling by
It's called direction
You're still in but then comes the evening
It's the best time of day, cause that's when you're on your own
It's called direction
Finding you face down I heard you say
No-one needs to know anyway
The reasons why we're late
Finding you face down I heard you say
No-one needs to know anyway
The things we did today
Holding on, but is that right?
You take me home but only on a night
It's called direction
Don't forget, we'll wait and see
They only ask because you are with me
Although we've got no direction
Finding you face down I heard you say
No-one needs to know anyway
The reasons why we're late
Finding you face down I heard you say
No-one needs to know anyway
To say what you're feeling, but baby not for free
It's called direction
That the way that you are is rubbing off on me
It's called direction
You look out the window, the trains keep rolling by
It's called direction
It's the best time of day, cause that's when you're on your own
It's called direction
No-one needs to know anyway
The reasons why we're late
Finding you face down I heard you say
No-one needs to know anyway
The things we did today
You take me home but only on a night
It's called direction
They only ask because you are with me
Although we've got no direction
No-one needs to know anyway
The reasons why we're late
Finding you face down I heard you say
No-one needs to know anyway

My favourite Cribs song. Love it when the chorus kicks in.
Mixed messages as to what the song is about though.
why does this song only have one comment!
one of the best cribs songs going!
haven't a clue about the meaning :/
the songs is about being christian (its called direction) direction, wev got none theres a collection of people with power, innocence that took them into darkness
let me explain the lyrics.. say what ur feeling but baby not for free (beware what you say)
the way that you are is rubbing off on me (the hidden powers cause) no one NEEDS to 'know' (but hes doing it)
(still) holding on (to IT) but is that right? (this character that we're all being) its the best time of day cause thats when ur on ur own (your forced to see this kind of truth, still in darkness though)
finally: they only ask because u are with me (the special powers guy, people know of these 'powers' subconciously, and dont know what their seing, these powers are there though.... ul see that people will come to u in the future with a great many powers, u will see wonders.... but who is he who u should look for? who told u of these things before? thats it....that NO MATTER WHAT U FIND within yourself go back and let His words, his bread, soak you, let His roots grow deep within you. you cannot serve God and mammon: 'the lamp of the body is the eye. if therefore your eye is good, your whole body is good, your whole body is of light. but if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. IF THEREFORE THE LIGHT THAT IS IN YOU IS DARKNESS, HOW GREAT IS THAT DARKNESS!
(just like they say) although we've got no DIRECTION
open your heart to a song.... but not to words of the One? dont you think it will talk to you too?
