Lyrics
I stood there beside myself
I experienced a feeling of detachment or disconnection.
Thinking hard about the weather
I pondered deeply about the current atmospheric conditions.
Then came by a friend of mine
A friend approached me at that moment.
Suggested we go out together
My friend suggested that we go out together.
Then I knew it from the start
I realized this friend would emotionally fall apart.
This friend of mine would fall apart
Anticipating his emotional breakdown from the beginning.
Pretending not to see his gun
Ignoring or avoiding acknowledging his troubles.
I said let's go out and have some fun
I proposed going out to enjoy ourselves.
I know you know
A statement indicating shared understanding.
We believe in a land of love
We have faith in a place or state of love.
I know you know
A repetition of the belief in a land of love.
We believe in a land of love
Reiterating the belief in a land of love.
I have always thought about
I have frequently contemplated the choice between staying in or going out.
Staying here and going out
Tonight, regretting not staying home and engaging in self-indulgence.
Tonight I should have stayed at home
An acknowledgment of a missed opportunity to remain at home.
Playing with my pleasure zone
Engaging in self-pleasure activities or thoughts.
He has always been so strange
Referring to someone who has always been peculiar or odd.
I'd often thought he was deranged
I had often suspected that this person was mentally disturbed.
Pretending not to see his gun
Ignoring or avoiding acknowledging his troubles (repeated).
I said let's go out and have some fun
I suggested going out to have a good time despite his issues.
I know you know
A repeated statement indicating shared understanding.
We believe in a land of love
Reiterating the belief in a land of love.
I know you know
A repetition of the belief in a land of love.
We believe in a land of love
Reiterating the belief in a land of love.
When you are alone at night
During solitary moments, reflecting on one's values and beliefs.
You search yourself for all the things
Searching internally for things considered right or true.
That you believe are right
If you give everything away, you lose the opportunity to be present.
If you give it all away
Throwing away the chance to be alive today by giving up everything.
You throw away your only chance to be here today
A warning about the consequences of giving up everything.
Then a fight breaks out on your street
A conflict arises in your surroundings, resulting in a broken heart in a harsh reality.
You lose another broken heart in a land of meat
Experiencing emotional pain in a challenging environment.
My friend, he took his final breath
A friend reaches the end of life.
Now I know the perfect kiss is the kiss of death
Concluding that the perfect kiss is synonymous with death.
