this song has been popping up on my ipod during runs lately and i think i have a new perspective:
i think he is trying to describe a concept that he grasps momentarily, but is ineffable, indescribable, and as he tries to describe it, in this song, it slips away from him. hence it is a "disappearer."
also - the lyrics suggest that this is a concept, or a dream thought, that he has had before, and has slipped away before.
of course some of the lyrics are there simply because they rhyme and sound cool - so you need to filter out that stuff.
at first i thought the lyrics were just nonsensical - but they aren't. i keep hearing this on my ipod and thinking about it. it is kind of like right when you are falling asleep and you have a very brief and fascinating thought. then you wake again and try to recall it and it slips away and makes absolutely no sense at all.
the video shows them driving in a car - a fleeting thought while driving, on tour . . .
or maybe it is about getting drunk at a bar called "western starland" - who knows?
