Does anyone else think about the dual meaning of conductor?
He describes the other person as a conductor, by definition "a person who conducts; a leader, guide, director, or manager." and in the same sense "a person who directs an orchestra or chorus, communicating to the performers by motions of a baton or the hands his or her interpretation of the music." Both of these definitions align themselves with what the singer describes as "far too orchestrated, far too calculated".
Then he describes himself as a conductor but in another sense of the word. "a substance, body, or device that readily conducts heat, electricity, sound, etc." This is reinforced by him saying, "Pointin' at me
and hearin' me speak... A simple conductor, The electricity just, Pouring through me."
To me, this is a relationship with someone. I'm not sure with whom, but it's at least with someone who tries to control/manipulate the way someone feels and/or acts. In either case, the relationship is a negative one and I think this is an awesome way to use words to describe it!
