my feelings on this song are mixed. not because im wondering wether to love the song or not...i love it..its one of the greatest songs ive ever heard...now the lyrics confuse me...the line "daughters starve their waist lines" is obviously talking about bulmia or anorexia. i think in the scheme of the song it has to do with two things, the inability to control impulse this idea being cement by the bridge "....low in distress on impulse to control." this makes me think that he's talking about depression kind of makes u do anything to end it...i also think that i has something to do with relationships today, and their lack of intamicity or lack of space..."you pull so close to mercy excessive touch and steady looks to charm" the line saying "...building a reputation beyond disguise..." is kind of what happens when you have no control and someone (daughters in this case) they just do whatever they want (have sex) all the time and they start building a reputation (as a slut) but this person feels bad about what theyve done so they repress what theyve done they "paint black lucid (or clear) dreams with open legs" except theyre not dreams, they are reality...but since theyve been repressed they come back as dreams or in some cases nightmares...now the chorus sounds to me as a warning saying as sound as your born "breath from coma" you have to live life which at times is really bad, and all of us that are here before you are trying to get rid of the pain of our pasts "open to the curse we live to sever" but if you keep away from the bad people you'll be alright "portray a life to close the portals to the ones bent on betrayal" so the over all message i get from this song is live how you want to live and dont let anyone tell you you're wrong..."the universe is shaping ample space depleting"
