Cover art for About You lyrics by Jesus and Mary Chain, The

I think this is about finding strength and wisdom in experiences. "Good" to me is the same as being "Genuine" and "Open". It is trying to stay true to yourself- your thoughts and beliefs- when thrown into a den of confusion and chaos. I think "real" and "good" is finding meaning in relationships. Real is going out on a limb BY YOURSELF to profess to the universe just why it was that you loved another human being. Real is good and beautiful and honest.

This song is gorgeous and uplifting.
