Something In You
Unveiling the Chaos Within: Something In You by Third Eye Blind
Lyrics
Someone's basement party
Describing the setting of a party in someone's basement
Backward and cross-dressed
Referring to unconventional or nonconforming behavior, possibly indicating a free-spirited atmosphere
She's a circus girl in a shower of oranges
Depicting a woman as a circus performer in a shower of oranges, possibly emphasizing uniqueness or chaos
She's a fabulous mess
Describing the woman as a remarkable and disordered individual
And I wasn't quite at my best when I said
Admitting a personal flaw or mistake when making a previous statement
You look like you'll never leave California
Expressing a belief that the person will remain in California
I felt my fingers inching towards you oh so slow
Describing a hesitant and gradual approach towards someone
We got room to grow.
Highlighting the potential for personal and relational growth
We got room to grow.
Reiterating the idea of having room for personal development
And I want to find out all the things the chaos brings
Expressing curiosity about the outcomes of chaotic situations
There's something in you I believe in
Affirming belief in a positive quality within the person
'Cause there's something in you I believe in
Repeating the belief in the positive quality within the person
I can't see the floor from the clothes
Unable to see the floor due to scattered clothes from the previous night
from the night before
Emphasizing the aftermath of a night of passion or chaos
And we lay in a bed that's never made
Describing a perpetually unmade bed
When she lets herself go
Depicting a woman's liberation or letting go of inhibitions
she's like no one you'll ever know
Highlighting the woman's uniqueness and incomparability
It was true then what I said to you a long time ago
Confirming the truth of a statement made to the person in the past
We got room to grow
Reiterating the idea of having space for personal and relational development
We got room to grow
Emphasizing the availability of room for growth
And I'll take you in no matter what your chaos brings
Expressing a willingness to accept the person regardless of challenges
There's something in you I believe in
Affirming belief in a positive quality within the person
There's something in you I believe in
Repeating the belief in the positive quality within the person
There's something in you I believe in
Repetition for emphasis: A continued belief in the person's positive quality
There's something in you I believe in
Repetition for emphasis: Continuing to express faith in the person's positive attribute
There's something in you I believe in
Repetition for emphasis: Continuation of expressing belief in the person's positive aspect
There's something in you I believe in
Repetition for emphasis: Continuing to state belief in the person's positive feature
There's something in you I believe in
Repetition for emphasis: Final affirmation of belief in the positive quality within the person
