this song is probably about divorce... after he was cheated.... or about not knowing what he wants.... one part wants her the other part says no...
"say you stay at home
alone with the flu
find out from friends
that wasn't true
go out at night with your headphones on, again
and walk through the Manhattan valleys of, the dead"
she´s lying to him.... finds excuses not to meet him.... she goes with "headphones" out at night means she does not pick up his phone calls probably.
didn't want to be your ghost
didn't want to be anyone's ghost
didn't want to be your ghost
didn't want to be anyone's ghost
but I don't want anybody else
I don't want anybody else
= i do not want to be just a ghost on your side, i want to be somebody... but i want to be with you.
you said I came close
as anyone's come
to live underwater
for more than a month
you said it was not inside my heart, it was
you said it should tear a kid apart, it does
= she probably explained to him, that he was the man coming closest in her life, but in the and blames him, not to have loved her enough ("it was not inside my heart"). Maybe she even said that if they would be together and have a child, then after a divorce the kid would be torn apart. By stating that "it does" he means that the fact that they are not staying together tears the not existing kid apart.
I had a hole in the middle where the lightning went through it
told my friends not to worry
I had a hole in the middle someone's sideshow wouldn't do it
I told my friends not to worry
The feeling one has, when a love from wich we think is meant for us, does not come true.... he found out, that she is going her on ways, and does not want to be in the sideshow...
