Lyrics
So once there was a boy caught in between
Describes a boy caught between two worlds.
Half-inside the world, half-stuck in a dream
Portrays the boy as partially immersed in reality and partially in a dream state.
So untamable, so uncontainable
Highlights the boy's untamable and uncontainable nature.
Always on the run from the headlight beams
Expresses the constant evasion of societal expectations, symbolized by headlight beams.
Once there was a boy
Reiterates the existence of the boy, distant like the stars.
As distant as the stars
Describes the boy's remoteness from others.
People had to come put it back down to Earth
People attempt to bring the boy back to reality.
Twist his little head
Suggests an attempt to influence or control the boy's thoughts.
Say it again and again
Emphasizes the importance of repetition to avoid disappearing.
You'll really disappear if you're not tied down
Warning about the risk of losing oneself without constraints.
Twisted, twisted
Repeatedly emphasizes the concept of a twisted heart.
Twisted heart
-Twisted, twisted
-Twisted heart
-Stop the witch hunt
Encourages stopping negative actions, waiting less, and expressing love in a non-conforming world.
Stop turning the screw
-It doesn't matter if the world doesn't dance with you
-Send some love there
-Stop making us wait
-It's hard when you feel twisted in a world so straight
-Stop the witch hunt
Reiteration of the need to stop negative influences and impatience.
Stop turning the screw
-It doesn't matter if the world doesn't dance with you
-Send some love there
-Stop making us wait
-It's hard when you feel twisted in a world so straight
-Once there was a boy
Repeats the narrative of a distant boy needing grounding.
As distant as the stars
-People had to come put it back down to Earth
-Twist his little head
-Say it again and again
-You'll really disappear if you're not tied down
-Mother nature
Refers to Mother Nature's potentially harsh but necessary actions, questioning the boy's place.
Cruel be kind
-You don't belong here
-Then leave him behind
-Twisted, twisted
Reiterates the theme of a twisted heart, emphasizing its prevalence and impact.
Twisted heart
-Twisted, twisted
-Twisted heart
-Twisted, twisted
-Twisted heart
-Twisted, twisted
-Twisted heart
