Under My Skin
Liberation Unveiled: Iron Walrus' Under My Skin
Lyrics
It's been a long long time
Expressing a considerable passage of time.
That I felt that good.
Describing an exceptionally positive emotional state.
It's been a long long time
Reiteration of a prolonged period without feeling as good.
That I felt that good.
Repeating the sentiment of an extended absence of positive feelings.
But suddenly you been there
Introducing an unexpected presence that disrupts the speaker's world.
Crashing in my world.
Describing the impact of the new presence in a forceful manner.
You get under my skin
Stating the effect of the new presence, implying a deep influence.
Suddenly I feel so free
Expressing a newfound sense of freedom triggered by the presence.
Reminds me of being a little kid
Recalling the carefree nature of childhood.
For the then longest time
Reflecting on a prolonged period in the past, possibly linked to the previous line.
I missed this the most.
Expressing a sense of longing for the experienced feeling.
But here you are
Acknowledging the presence of the influential person.
and give me what I need
Attributing the fulfillment of needs to the identified person.
You get under my skin
Reiterating the deep influence of the person under the speaker's skin.
It's nearly delirium
Describing an intense emotional state verging on delirium.
But I don't care
Expressing a lack of concern despite the heightened emotions.
There's freedom all over this place
Noting the prevalence of freedom in the surroundings.
I need this the most
Highlighting the speaker's need for the freedom described.
