Hospital Hands
Recovery in Alien Lands
Lyrics
A stranger in the comfort of a new foreign land
A sense of unfamiliarity in a new foreign environment.
A forgotten place by the human race to fall and stand
A place neglected or overlooked by humanity, where one experiences both failure and success.
The shadow of the night is a soft yellow light
The nighttime is represented by a soft yellow light, suggesting a calming atmosphere.
It opens up the door and lets me walk in
An opportunity presented by the night to enter a new phase or situation.
Creature in the comfort of your hospital hands
A creature in the care of hospital staff, surrounded by medical equipment.
The glowing buzz of the TV fuzz and medicines
The presence of medical procedures, TV distraction, and medications.
My vision was blurred by artificial lights
Vision impaired by artificial lights, possibly reflecting disorientation.
Now there's new blood in my veins that isn't mine
A transformation with the introduction of new blood, not belonging to the individual.
Mend me
A plea for healing.
Oh new nurse
Addressing a new nurse, seeking assistance.
Find a way the get me on my feet
Requesting a solution to stand on one's own feet again.
Walking
Expressing a desire to walk.
Rebuilding
The process of reconstruction or recovery.
Put me back together again
An appeal to be put back together again.
Down in the daydream where you used to see the beast
A reference to a past state where one used to confront a challenging situation.
Standing right in front of you with open arms to feast
A description of the beast standing with open arms, possibly a symbol of challenges or struggles.
Hold your soul he's lost control throw the bones to the dogs
Encouraging the listener to hold onto their soul despite losing control.
They are in the yard good and starved foaming at the mouth
Warning of impending danger represented by starving dogs in the yard.
Foaming at the mouth
Reiteration of the danger, emphasizing the foaming at the mouth.
Creature in the comfort of your hospital hands
Repetition of the earlier imagery of a creature in the care of hospital staff.
The glowing buzz of TV fuzz and medicines
Recurrence of medical elements, including TV and medicines.
My vision was blurred by artificial lights
Reiteration of impaired vision due to artificial lights.
Now there's new blood in my veins that isn't mine
Repetition of the theme of receiving new blood.
Mend me
A renewed plea for healing and recovery.
Oh new nurse
A repetition of addressing a new nurse for assistance.
Find a way to get me on my feet
Continued seeking of a solution to regain mobility.
Walking
Reiteration of the desire to walk.
Rebuilding
Continuation of the rebuilding process.
Put me back together again
A final plea to be put back together again.
