A Conversation With God Lyrics

Cover art for A Conversation With God lyrics by Darren Hayes

Song vaguely reminds me of Kraftwerk But in regards to the meaning, I think anyone who takes the happier "This is all about accepting God" etc. route is mishearing the words...

"The rust of the metal bridge, it beckons, it pulls me in" He's obviously driving towards it "I argue, I scream at God and what he's offering" He doesn't want to accept the life that he's been given "My hands fly off the steering wheel" He let go of control and drove off the bridge because he doesn't want to live the life he's being offered "Can't recall getting here" Has just regained conciousness in hospital "If I could, I would reach behind and turn my light off" If he could move, he'd turn off his life support "Take the hand of God and bite the feeder, no more lingering" Accept your final fate, bite the feeding tube and wait for death

And that is what I think this song is about Driving off a bridge then taking yourself off life support

Open to criticism

"If I could, I would reach behind and turn my light off" He's in hospital on life support
