Inside Out Lyrics

Cover art for Inside Out lyrics by Spoon

I've played this song so many times. I liked what seemed to be lyrics resisting fanaticism but the more I looked at the lyrics it really sounds like a spiritual song. I think he's talking to the higher powers in life (gravity/time/only you I need) Could be a love song but I def see the lyrics as a celebration of his connection with this and how he's just a satellite who doesn't have time for a groups' perception of his ideas. They still wash his feet (try to include him in the group) but he doesn't need it. When time and gravity wear him to the point where he has nothing left to give, he gives himself up to the only thing he needs and then time/gravity/servitude have no hold on him anymore when he embraces this.
