General CommentOne of my few very good friends says that this song decribes me.and well i guess it does. With that in mind i think it's about a girl who's been torn apart by the world such as her parents and other influences, and that she's been hurt so much she just shys away from the world. And people just see her as a sadened creature who doesn't want to love.or can't.when all she wants is someone who needs her and can understand her the same way she can understand them.i only say this because that is how my life is. General CommentThis song is just excellent. I always liked it, but only recently have I fully realized its meaning, well, at least, in my own eyes.!
Its about feeling lost, unloved, unaappreciated. U fill in the blanks. The list goes on. Its about having a bad day, a bad series of days, weeks, months. Time is irrelevent. You feel like u can relate to no one.
And you're dreaming of the one who will be able to relate to u. AND understand u. Your soulmate. 'I would fly to the moon and back. If you'll be my baby.'
I think 'to the moon and back' implies happiness. Elation, rather. U'll feel rejuvenated, motivated. Like u could run a marathon type of thing.

All u need is to be able to relate to somebody. That doesn't sound quite like I wanted it to, but then again, getting your thoughts out is never how u picture it to be. General CommentI really love this song and can relate to it in a twisted way somehow. My head was messed up pretty bad when I was I a teenager, was bullied and/or ignored by schoolmates, especially by the boys and it's pretty much like a sad 'ugly duckling' story. I changed, became pretty rather late, by the age of 18 or something and suddenly alle the guys seemed to be interrested.though I seem to have difficulties trusting them and often question their real intentions. I know I can get almost any guys attention, but I'm afraid they will se the real me insde of me if I get to close to them.
To me the lyrics tell a tale of a girl that has been hurt so many times over that she don't want to go into any deeper relations, she can take them to the moon and then back again (i.e. Dump them) because the were already trialed and found guilty. She gets her kicks from getting that boys attention and love, but ends it before he does. The 'pilot' could be anyone, whenever she needs it, like out on town, a one night stand, etc.
She doesn't want to go further, she doesn't 'have a map' for the stuff that involves feelings, so she goes for the alternative. Some of 'Garbage's lyrics describe some of the same feelings, like 'Stupid Girl' and many others. General CommentTo me, it feels like the song is about somebody who has definitely gone through something to distance herself from the world, but instead of trying to heal herself she uses this as an excuse to be even more cut off.

So she isn’t understood by the people around her “everyone's got a theory about the bitter one”, she doesn’t trust them while she doesn’t always have the reason not to, and at the same time she isn’t making enough effort to make any of this better. “And reaching out for human faith is like a journey I just don't have a map for' So in her world, she sits and waits “hanging all her hopes on the stars” for the magical presence to come and take her away from this place she supposedly doesn’t belong. (“what a pleasant dream”). General CommentI believe this song is about someone who wants to love and be loved but she doesn’t trust others and, therefore, distances herself from them.
In the first verse, the song is talking about how she is an outcast and that she is trying to make excuses for the pain.
When superstars and cannon balls are runnin' through your head And television freak show, cops and robbers everywhere Subway makes me nervous, people pushin' me too far I've got to break away so take my hand now 'Cause I want to live Like animals Careless and free Like animals I want to live I want to run through the jungle The wind in my hair and the sand at my feet I've been having difficulties keepin' to myself Feelings and emotions better left up on the shelf Animals and children tell the truth they never lie Which one is more human There's a thought, now you decide.
