Lyric discussion by pining_for_fjords 

Reading this it sounds like drugs or something. When I first heard the song - it sounded like it was a girl (brought up like a boy) - but I was unsure about the lyrics (hence looking them up) - I thought it said 'you think your life's a film' for some reason - which fits interestingly with the soundtrack bit.

Anyway - I think that maybe this about a lady on drugs (life's a pill) with it's love for yourself (odd meaning - but E is a love drug). How can a drug pill love someone? - maybe the pushers love those who provide them money - and the club scene seems like a room of love (but is in fact a room full of drugged freaks) . I dunno - The timeless soundtrack is maybe the club scene (or 'Rave' scene as it used to be called in this era - in the UK - I believe that some nations still use the word 'Rave' to refer to contemporary dance music). Anyhow - The flag bit gets complicated. Perhaps she is carrying the flag for drugs and points to those who are not doing the drugs - but he does not pay attention (he was told to say no or something). Anyhow - the dust we breath - again seems like drugs again - cocaine - speed whatever. As for the gentle senses - he is either referring to the lady - perhaps the man is a little more sensitive and does not feel comfortable with such a brash druggy woman. Or perhaps at this point he is talking about the dust drug again - can it recommend itself to his human gentle senses.

As for 'I feel wasted' - well - Perhaps that is drugs again....

I really did not want this song to be about drugs - but sadly I can't view it any other way. If someone knows better then please tell....
