It's hard to believe
That it came to this,
You paralyzed my body
With a poison kiss
For forty days and nights
I was chained to your bed,
You thought that was
The end of the story
Something inside me
Called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you.
You told me my darling,
"Without me, you're nothing"
You taught me, to look in your eyes
And fed me your sweet lies!
Suddenly someone will stare
In the window.
Looking outside at the sky
That had never been blue...
Ahh!, there's a world without you
I see the light.
Living in a world without you.
Ahh!, there is hope to guide me
I will survive!
Living in a world without you.
It's hard to believe
That it came to this,
You paralyzed my body
With a poison kiss
For forty days and nights
I was chained to your bed,
You thought that was
The end of the story
Something inside me
Called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you.
You put me together
Then trashed me for pleasure
You used me again and again
Abused me, confused me!
Suddenly naked I run
Through your garden.
Right through the gates of the
Past and I'm finally free...
Ahh!, there's a world without you
I see the light.
Living in a world without you.
Ahh!, there is hope to guide me
I will survive!
Living in a world without you.
It's hard to believe
That it came to this,
You paralyzed my body
With a poison kiss
For forty days and nights
I was chained to your bed,
You thought that was
The end of the story

Called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you.
It's hard to believe
That it came to this,
You paralyzed my body
With a poison kiss
For forty days and nights
I was chained to your bed,
You thought that was
The end of the story
Something inside me
Called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you.
Ahh!, there's a world without you
I see the light.
Living in a world without you.
Ahh!, there is hope to guide me
I will survive!
Living in a world without you.

Living in a world without you"
All in all, it's a great comeback song for The Rasmus. Well done !
When "something inside me called freedom came alive" (duh, if you don't get this part, you're thick as brick!) he now sees it's possible he could be "livin' in a world without you"
PS
The music video rocks! Hated it when Lauri got hit in the end though... OPPS! Spoiler! ^^"
...And the music video is amazing!! :D
Anyways ..
The song is obviously about his past relationship .. which I think failed because he was on tour too much and we all know that Lauri isn't the most reliable one when it comes to not cheat x_X
[don't know what that had with the song]
Can't wato see them in Bulgaria for the free concert on 10/29.08 :] \m/

That definitely, for me, says how commitment in a relationship made him feel like he was trapped for what felt like a long time, and he didn't want it, then he decided to 'be free.'
Haha, yes, I agree he isn't the most reliable.
But to me it's about his past relationships. About being controlled by your partner, and then finally letting go, to be free.
