Now I grow and unfold there are many sides to the soul
And not just one
I thought you was dead

Content with my own thoughts in my own head
That's because I thought you was dead
And it was so nice, so nice
It's all been, it's all been so nice
It's been so...

Happy now, open wide, everything in it's place and time
Now it's mine - I hoped you was dead
Genial to the last, leave the past in the past
This means you - I thought you was dead
And it was so nice, so nice
It's all been, it's all been so nice, nice
It's been...

It's all been so nice, it's all been so..

Freedom now, never gloom, happiness all afternoon
Can't you get this in your thick head?

Sorrow gone, peace won, five words spurred me on
I thought you was dead

And it was so nice, so nice
It's all been so nice
It was so nice, so nice, so...

    My Interpretation

    I think the song is about the death of his inner self deprecating voice. Furthermore, I think it's also about how the world would be a better place in general without certain incompetent agitators (that nobody wants to see) around any longer.
