Roswell's Spell Lyrics

Cover art for Roswell's Spell lyrics by Chevelle

the great thing about Chevelle lyrics is that everyone can interpret them differently.

to me this song is about a fantasy, and wanting it to be real so badly that you lose yourself in it "thats why i'm burning out inside, with a need to know oneself"

the aliens are just the particular fantasy the subject of the song is lost in, aliens are actually the least important part of the song, interchangeable with any other fantasy. replace them with things from say, the wizard of oz and the song is still about the same thing

does anybody really see anything?

That's a great interpretation, I'd never thought of it that way!
