Lyrics
My head was stained like a bus station loo
Feeling emotionally dirty or stained, like a neglected public restroom.
But then I came and I fell for you
Found love and became emotionally invested.
My bed was silent like an empty tune
Emptiness and silence in the speaker's bed.
But then I came and I fell for you
Love brought meaning and filled the emptiness.
My mind was dining at the first light
Feeling mentally dull or uninspired at the beginning of the day.
But then I came and I fell for you
Love brought vitality and inspiration.
My life was twisted, blooded and gone
Life was troubled, violent, and seemingly lost.
But then I came and I fell for you
Love brought stability and purpose.
I’m free, free of all the pain
Expressing freedom from emotional pain.
I’m free, free of all the pain (yeah?)
Reiteration of the speaker's freedom from pain.
I grew a beard and put the bottle down
Positive change, giving up destructive habits like drinking.
But then I came and I fell for you
Love contributed to personal growth and positive change.
My stunted limbs they grew in blue
Physical and metaphorical growth, overcoming limitations.
But then I came and I fell for you
Love played a role in overcoming obstacles.
I’m free, free of all the pain
Reiteration of freedom from emotional pain.
I’m free, free of all the pain (yeah?)
Continued affirmation of freedom from pain.
The drug I needed has always been here
The recurring mention of "The drug" implies that love or the positive influence of a relationship has always been the solution or comfort.
The drug I needed has always been near
-The drug I needed has always been here
-The drug I needed has always been near
-The drug I needed has always been here
-The drug I needed has always been near
-The drug I needed has always been here
-The drug I needed has always been near
-I’m free, free of all the pain
Restating the theme of freedom from emotional pain.
I’m free, free of all the pain (yeah?)
Final affirmation of the speaker's liberation from pain.
