Lyrics for Agoraphobia as interpreted by makingbeds

Agoraphobia Lyrics
come for me
you cover me
come for me
comfort me
come for me
cover me
comfort me
comfort me

i had a dream no longer to be free
i want only to see four walls made of concrete

6 by 6 enclosed
soon we're on video oh oh oh

feed me twice a day
i want to fade away, away

come for me
cover me
come for me
comfort me
come for me
cover me
come for me
comfort me

and after some time i know i would go blind
but seeing only binds the vision to the eye

i lose my voice, i know
but i've nothing left to say
(nothing left to pray)

no echo in this place

in an interview bradford said this song was inspired by something fictional he saw about someone wanting to be buried alive, but nursed constantly so he was always on the edge of death

Agoraphobia means the fear of crowds or open areas, so the buried alive thing could make sense. It sounds as if he says come for me, comfort me, and cover me, so the above lyrics might be right.

I know it's about that buried person. But i also like to think it's about society today, we are not really free, the only thing free is called market. The walls of concrete are all those stupid laws that don't let people do whatever they want, everything is on video now and a lot of people believe that what they see is the truth, in a sense we are all blind, our voice is not allowed to say things that really change the state of things, there is no echo in this place. So the cover me comfort me stuff is like some kind of hope or probably admitting defeat, since this is a pop song about a man buried alive.
I know it's not like that but i don't care, let's have some fun. Lovely song.

I think its literal.

come for me
you come for me
come for me
comfort me

agoraphobia..... the fear of crowds or open areas.

i want only to see
four walls made of concrete

6 by 6 enclosed
soon we're on video oh oh oh

I'm thinking that the person was used to peace. Their own space. Now since becoming "well-known" or "more recognized" , they have become some what robbed of that. And a part of them wants to have that piece of their life back.

When I bought the CD, the cover had a review on it that said "A disturbing plea for erotic asphyxiation". Upon listening, I heard three things: Cover Me, Comfort Me, and Come (or "Cum") For Me.

Disturbing Indeed.

people with agoraphobia have panic attacks in public places. they begin to avoid those places which they expect will make them feel more anxious. gradually their "world" gets smaller and smaller, until they refuse to leave home.

we both have it, my mother and I. she will leave home only to a small number of familiar destinations: and even then, only if accompanied by certain trusted people. if these people fail to provide constant reassurance, she becomes disoriented and unpredictable.

being 25 years younger, I haven't yet reached that point. although in recent years I have noticed it's becoming increasingly difficult to leave my apartment, and I must follow time-consuming rituals/compulsions.

self-imposed house arrest. extend this notion farther, making it more and more literal until nothing is "safe" except the space around your body where you will remain until you die. or, what encloses it after death.

I wish it were something I could regard with intellectual curiosity (implying emotional distance). but it's too real.

the whole album should be called agoraphobia.

Cover Me (Slowly) is the song that gives the feel of agoraphobia best though.
