The Naked And Famous – Spank

• 0
  My Interpretation:-This is one of my favorite songs and I feel like what I hear is exactly what I would write if I were writing a song about withdrawal, therefore, I'm putting down the lyrics as I hear them, pertaining to opiate withdrawal:
  
  I don't remember the first time
  but I think I survived
  Probably better not to try to wake up
  Cuz it feeds again
  Keeps it alive
  
  There are specific things
  That I have to do
  Day to day, just to keep it at bay
  You wouldn't believe if you knew
  
  (oh, no, this isn't real)
  
  Here's a little secret
  Here's the best part
  This is gonna take me,
  right back to the start
  If I can cure it
  If its set in mind
  Wait until it settles
  Come down a second time
  
  I don't remember the first time
  but I think I survived
  Probably better not to try to wake up
  Cuz it feeds again
  Keeps it alive
  
  (oh, no, this isn't real)
  
  Here's a little secret
  Here's the best part
  This is gonna take me
  Right back to the start
  If I can cure it
  If its set in mind
  Wait until it settles
  Come down a second time
  
  I can feel it loom
  Up into my head
  It is in the room
  I'm panicking in bed
  I feel it coming on
  Taking overview
  Oh please, not tonight
  There's nothing I can do
  
  This is bigger than me
  This is in my fear
  This is pitiful
  I just disappear
  Swears falling from me
  Swallowed up inside
  Sell my senses if it
  Would make this subside
  
  I can barely handle
  I can pass the time
  Staring through the curtains
  Up into the sky
  Where there is no depth perception
  Keep me occupied
  Self-deception
  
  Nobody recognizes
  It doesn't have a name
  My brother is infected
  He's acting just the same
  Screaming like a siren
  Up and down the halls
  He just wants to stop it
  He wants to end it all
  
  I am just a child
  I am nothing more
  Than the basic functions
  I am running from
  I could run a mile
  My distortion
  Everything is
  Disproportioned

  My Interpretation:I don't remember the first time
  But I think I'll survive
  Probably better not to try again
  'Cause it feeds it, yeah, keeps it alive
  
  There're specific things that I have to do
  Day to day just to keep it at bay
  You wouldn't believe if you knew
  
  (Oh no, this isn't real)
  
  (Oh no, this isn't real)
  Here a little secret
  Here's the best part
  This is gonna take me
  Right back to the start
  If I can keep it
  If it's set in mind
  Wait until it settles
  Come join a second time
  
  I don't remember the first time
  But I think I'll survive
  Probably better not to try to wake up
  'Cause it feeds it, yeah, keeps it alive
  
  (Oh no, (no) this isn't real)
  (Hmm)
  
  Here's a little secret
  Here's the best part
  This is gonna take me
  Right back to the start
  If I can keep it
  If it's set in mind
  Wait until it settles
  Come join a second time
  
  I can feel it move
  Up into my head
  It is in the room
  Panicking in bed
  I feel it coming on
  Taking over you
  Oh, please, not tonight
  There's nothing I can do
  
  This is bigger than me
  This is in my fear
  This is pedophilia
  I just disappear
  Swears are falling from me
  Swallowed up inside
  Sailed it as if it
  Would make this subside
  
  I can barely handle
  I can pass the time
  Staring through the curtains
  Up into the sky
  Where there is no
  Depth perception
  Keep preoccupied
  Self deception
  
  Nobody recognizes
  It doesn't have a name
  My brother is infected
  He's acting just the same
  Screaming like a siren
  Up and down the hall
  He just wants to stop it
  He wants to end it all
  
  I am just a child
  I am nothing more
  Than the basic functions
  I am running from
  I could run a mile
  My distortion
  Everything is
  Disproportioned
  
  Suddenly a break
  All is back again
  Everything is closer
  More or less the same
  And I can hear it
  It's real and wild
  I will just forget this
  'Til next time

  Lyric Correction:I don't remember the first time
  But I think I'll survive
  Probably better not to try to wake up because it feeds it 'gain keeps it alive
  
  There're specific things
  That I have to do
  Day to day just to keep it at bay
  You wouldn't believe if you knew
  
  (TOM: Oh no, this isn't real x2)
  
  He doesn't know the secret
  He is the best part
  This is going to take me
  Right back to the start
  If I can keep it
  If it set in mind
  Wait until it sets
  Come try a second time
  
  I don't remember the first time,
  But I think I'll survive
  Probably better not to try to wake up because it feeds it 'gain keeps it alive
  
  (TOM: Oh no, this isn't real)
  (ALISSA: Yeah)
  
  He doesn't know the secret
  He is the best part
  This is going to take me
  Right back to the start
  If I can keep it
  If it set in mind
  Wait until it sets
  Come try it a second time
  
  I can feel it move
  Up into my head
  It is in the room
  Panic in my head
  I feel it coming on
  Taking over you
  Oh please not tonight
  There's nothing I can do
  
  This is bigger than me
  This is in my fear
  This is pitiful
  I just disappear
  Swears are falling from me
  Swallow up inside
  ?
  would make this subside
  
  I can barely handle
  I can pass the time
  Staring through the curtains
  Up into the sky
  Where there is no
  Depth perception
  Keep preoccupied
  Self deception
  Nobody recognizes
  It doesn't have a name
  My brother is infected
  He's acting just the same
  Screaming like a siren
  Up and down the hall
  He just wants to stop it
  He wants to end it all
  
  I am just a child
  I am nothing more
  Than the basic functions
  I am running from
  I could run a mile
  My distortion
  Everything is
  Disproportioned
  
  ?
  All is back again
  Everything is closer
  More is just the same
  And I can hear it
  It's rewind?
  I will just forget this
  'Til next time
