Friends seem to see you
Friends seem to feel you
Does anybody else know?
I'm bailing you out of this life
Take another glance
Then close your eyes
Have you got more to say?
Painting outside the lines
Come another day will you get it right?
Well there's something I should say
Leave it all decide to walk away
Won't you leave it all decide to walk away
In time you'll find your own
I can see your blinders in the way
I'm so much closer than you know now
Can you feel me?
I can see your blinders in the way
Time to open up and let go
Filling the shoes this time
Turn another page, it's just a sign
That you're needed in my life
Drawing inside the pain
Could take another day to wash away
Well there's still time to fly
Leave it all decide to walk away
Leave it all decide to walk away
In time you'll find you're not alone
I can see your blinders in the way
I'm so much closer than you know now
Can you feel me?
I can see your blinders in the way
Time to open up and let go
Caught up outside the light
When you gonna want and realign
Friend I can see you
Friend I can still feel you
Do you feel alone today?
Oh my friend
Do you need me?
Friend do you fear me?
We need to be the same
Leave it all decide to walk away
Leave it all decide to walk away
In time you'll find you're not alone
I can see your blinders in the way
I'm so much closer than you know now
Can you fell me?
I can see your blinders in the way
Time to open up and let go
Caught up outside the light
When you gonna want and realign
Friends seem to feel you
Does anybody else know?
I'm bailing you out of this life
Take another glance

Have you got more to say?

I suppose the "blinders" represent someone's fear towards taking new steps, meeting new people, or trying new things. These blinders are keeping someone prisoner and unless they are opened, this life will be wasted.
Man...I'm a really big fan of nirvana, and in my opinion they were the ONE and only TRUE grunge band...or perhaps more just my style, cobain was a genious...i don't know about the rest but fuck pearl jam thier gay...and sry but alice in chains just isn't my style....As i started to listen to a c.d. by this band, i kind of noticed and realized no one will ever come close to, but i like these guys now, when nirvana i was only 3 yrs old when cobain died i wish i was older then...
anyway im sry im losing track...what this song means to me???...yeah i agree with the 1st comment...and perhaps he's talking to a friend in the song, maybe some self-reflected emotions and....perhaps he's just singing to any1 thats been alone a long fucking time, som1 that dosn't get out much, cus they lost all thier friends or hope in life or some shit along those lines......At first he says "leave it all decide to walk away In time you'll find your own"...then says to realize your not alone, even if u feel alone, ppl still exist and thier out there waiting for u...
finally I like the part "Caught up outside the light When you gonna want and realign?" .......to me it means ur looking back and realizing u need to get back in touch with ppl and society and start being more social, make new friends and ppl, despite the way u feel about the past, when ur caught outside the light means being somewhere or w/ ppl in a social sence, and when are you gonna want to start living again?
