RE: [song lyrics]

Comments appreicated on this, by the way:

A track off my new album. Relatively pleased with the lyrics, although someone pointed out they're a bit Mr Self Destruct by NIN, which I didn't notice at all when writing it. Ick!

Feel free to discuss interpretations etc... in fact please do, it'll be interesting!

Anyway:

RE:

I am the room in which you grow
I am the stage on which you glow
I am the cotton mouth you get when you’re not sleeping well

I am the arsenal that you fire
I am the murder you conspire
I am the candy cane you spin around your finger tips

Enrol it in sympathy
Control it with relative ease
Then soil it with friendly fire

For your friends: your stupid answers
For you’re fine without them to hide behind

I am your royal dignitary
I am your spark of anarchy
I am the tingle in your stomach when you’re out with them

I am the smell of foreign rain
I am the poison in your veins
I am the times you wish you still could carry on with them

We’ll call it an amnesty
Retire but keep the seeds
Destroy it but not with fire

For your friends: your stupid answers
For you’re fine without them to hide behind

I’m the poison you needed most...

Hehe, glad you like.

It's a very interesting piece for me. Namely because it's the exact opposite of the sort of lyric I usually write. Often I write very subjective, personal stuff. This does the opposite and places myself into someone else's shoes, looking back at me. Quite interesting.
