This song really hit hard for me, probably the hardest of all the songs. A few weeks ago it ended with my ex-fiance. It was and still is a very painful break-up, we had a lot together and he was storta my "star" and guided me into the relationship as it was. My view on it is:
Quote:
I can't see your star
though I patiently waited, bedside, for the death of today
I can't see your star
the mechanical lights of Lisbon frightened it away
|
Everything is cloudy, her whole life is different. The one guiding star is gone. She just wants the day to die so she doesn't have to think about it.
Quote:
and I'm alone now
me and all I stood for
we're wandering now
all in parts in pieces, swim lonely
find your own way out
|
For me personally, I put a lot of work into my relationship and to have it blow up on me was painful. I was left alone to find my way out of the mess that he created.
Quote:
So far away
its growing colder without your love
why can't you feel me calling your name?
can't break the silence
its breaking me
all my fears turn to rage
|
The relationship grows cold when only one person is doing all the effort. At this point rejection from the other person is piercing pain. It's one of those, you are talking but they can't hear you things. Once she realizes they are ignoring her, she becomes mad that they can just treat her this way.
