| Talking Heads – This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody) Lyrics | 9 years ago |

@[pezdel:3527] wow, just wow. Your interpretation just blew my mind for a couple reasons: 1) I've been playing this song on loop without even knowing the full lyrics for the past month just because I love the Talking Heads and because it's very catchy. 2) I've been in the exact same predicament for the past few years with my girlfriend. My brain is trying to force me to fall in love with this perfect girl, but at the same time it feels "off". I have been scared to explore other people because what if this girl is the one for me? Being relatively inexperienced in relationships, I am scared that everything I've ever wanted is right in front of me. I'm scared that if I end it to explore other people, there is a possibility that she won't be waiting for me once I realize I've made a huge mistake. I can't say one bad word about this girl, honestly. I don't deserve her. I would be a selfish idiot to even think about ending ties with this girl. I can't even imagine what a better relationship would feel like. Yet my body and soul feels the same things in this song, eerily similar things. That is one reason I am sure your interpretation is the correct one, because EVERY SINGLE LINE is what I feel. That can not be coincidence. I almost wish this song had a conclusion because maybe then would I have some direction. In the meantime, I've been "covering up the blank spots". Spot on, Talking Heads. I never thought I would get so attached to a song because of the lyrics. What's ironic about the whole thing is that I played this at the bars, flying solo, "looking for a home", without even knowing the meaning. |
