The Meaning
Unveiling Depths: The Search for Meaning in 'The Meaning'
Lyrics
I'm a book of beginnings
I represent the beginning of something, like a book.
That always sits on the shelf
My existence is stationary, like a book sitting on a shelf.
Every thought that I've ever had
All my thoughts originate from others; I lack originality.
Was written by somebody else
Every thought I have has been written by someone else.
I keep searching for reasons
I continuously seek reasons and clues.
I keep searching for clues
I'm on a quest for understanding.
I shed my skin straight down to my bones
I've exposed my vulnerabilities to the core.
So I would have nothing to lose
I deliberately stripped away everything to have nothing to lose.
Lets get down to the meaning
Let's delve into the true significance of things.
Let's get down till we're on the floor
Let's explore deeply until we reach the floor.
If you can't be the one I need now
If you can't fulfill my needs now, I don't want you anymore.
Then I don't want you here anymore
I'm rejecting those who don't meet my current needs.
Take you down from the ceiling
I bring you down from a high point.
Show you the path that leads to my door
I reveal the path to my inner self.
If you can't be the one I need now
If you can't fulfill my needs now, I don't want you anymore (repeated).
Then I don't want you here anymore
I'm rejecting those who don't meet my current needs (repeated).
You're as clear as a window
Your transparency is evident, like a clear window.
You stretched yourself too thin
You have extended yourself too much.
I can't tell where it is that you end
Your boundaries are unclear, making it hard to distinguish your limits.
And where it is that you begin
I can't discern where you end and where you begin.
Every wall that surrounds me
Every barrier around me and everything I do.
Everything that I do
My actions and surroundings.
I took a walk up inside of my head
I explored my thoughts, and you were the only thing I found.
The only thing I found there was you
You dominate my mental space.
Lets get down to the meaning
Let's delve into the true significance of things (repeated).
Let's get down till we're on the floor
Let's explore deeply until we reach the floor (repeated).
If you can't be the one I need now
If you can't fulfill my needs now, I don't want you anymore (repeated).
Then I don't want you here anymore
I'm rejecting those who don't meet my current needs (repeated).
Take you down from the ceiling
I bring you down from a high point (repeated).
Show you the path that leads to my door
I reveal the path to my inner self (repeated).
If you can't be the one I need now
If you can't fulfill my needs now, I don't want you anymore (repeated).
Then I don't want you here anymore
I'm rejecting those who don't meet my current needs (repeated).
