Lyric discussion by dance|with|me 

I like the drowning/orgasm theory, but I have another one I prefer, mostly because it seems a thousand times more common.

Imagine a guy who lives what seems like a normal life, all the while secretly hoping for greatness - seeking fulfillment in any way possible. To everyone around him, he's normal - better than normal - in fact, he's doing fantastic. But he can tell that he's not. He can tell that he's secretly drowning in his secrets and his desires and his disappointment.

Anyways, that's all I got right now. I was inspired by an ex who actually makes me sick to my stomach these days...

Pretty much this. I know someone who lives their life in a manner very similar to what you described and it breaks my heart. This song reminds me of her, but all you can do is watch as he/she self destructs and falls apart.

brilliant song
