Close my eyes and move to the back of my mind
The worries are washed out to sea
See the changes, people's faces blurred out
Like sunspots or raindrops

Now all those feelings, those yesterdays feelings will all be lost in time
But today I've wasted away for today is on my mind

Left the only worries I had in my hands
Away from the light in my eyes
Holding tight and try not to hide how I feel

Now feelings mean nothing

All those feelings, those yesterdays feelings will all be lost in time
But today I've wasted away for today is on my mind (today is on my mind)

I can't get a worry
I'm feeling so lonely
Breaking apart all this love in my heart
Close my eyes and move to the back of my mind

Where feelings mean nothing

All those feelings, those yesterdays feelings will all be lost in time
But today I've wasted away, for today is on my mind
But today I've wasted away, for today is on my mind
But today I've wasted away, for today is on my mind

I can't get a worry
I'm feeling so lonely
Breaking apart all this love in my heart

    General Comment:This song is about love and loss - the pain of not being able to get over someone who has already moved on. It leaves you with an empty feeling where the world seems to be distant, but it will go away with time. It is about moving on tomorrow, but being left with your sorrow today

    General Comment:This song has to be about getting high, especially to escape from reality. All the lyrics support that, but if I had to pic a few lines they would be:

    "Close my eyes and move to the back of my mind
    where worries are washed out to sea
    See the changes, peoples faces blurred out
    like sun spots on raindrops" or

    "Now all those feelings
    those yesterdays feelings
    will all be lost in time
    But today I've wasted away
    for today is on my mind"

    (plus there's a fricken bong in the background!)

    General Comment:i think it's about taking things day by day.
    He talks about "yesterday's feelings" and how they mean nothing and they become lost in time, and today is on his mind.
    Of course, tomorrow, today will become yesterday, if that makes any sense... so he's just taking one step at a time and trying to fit things into the big picture. Not making rash decisions etc. because in the end it's just one day out of so many.
    and someone trying to get over something serious and weighty, more like a death or an addiction or SI, not so much trivial things like relationships.
    Personally, i feel it relates to SI and how I'm feeling right now about it.

    General Comment:Seems to me like Bert is in some kind of chronic haze or some sort. Or maybe more than just the chronic..

    General Comment:I think this song is about trying to forget something that happened the day before, maybe a breakup or something. *Shrug*

    General Comment:This song i think is about someone who just can't deal with things. They get into the habit that everytime something bothers them, they just push it to the back of their mind and move on. Then they start feeling like the way they feel about things doesn't mean anything anyway. Things can only stay in the back of your mind for so long. They come back to haunt you in the long run. You start feeling like you are spinning out of control. And everything turns into a fog. ("faces blurred") Making you feel alone and out of control, but you can't tell anyone and get it off your chest because you feel like no one cares. ("feelings mean nothing" "im feeling so lonely")
