What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I have overloved you and overseen you
2
And now you're refusing the gifts that I bring you
3
My hands have been clasping my hot head and asking
4
"if she submits to me, will she be my property? "
5
You may be bleeding but you're not dying
6
Though you are dying to go
7
Stop teasing me
8
I'm not seeing you leaving me
9
Here is a party full of my friends
10
And here is a cup being filled up to be drunk again
11
We are just starting luxurious lives
12
To be drunkards and diddymen
13
Making gulf wars and battered wives.
14
Now I may be pleading
15
But there's no love nor fear in my eyes
16
Just greediness
17
I'm not seeing this sleeping dog lie.
18
I am the wild horses who will drag you away
19
I am the locked door who can make you stay
20
And I will act the man in almost anyway I can
21
So I can keep keep keep you.
22
So wake up you pretty thing to a wonderful home
23
Where we while away the happy saturdays
24
Between the television and the telephone
25
And I stroke your head just to feel what I own
26
Whispering
27
"will you be my property, and not my disability? "
28
And why are you craving
29
To be free from love's slavery
30
Stop teasing me
31
Love's not letting go.
32
I am the child calling you to come back and play
33
I am the concert hall in which you hear me say
34
I'll act a man in almost anyway I can
35
So I can keep keep keep you even though you may not understand
36
I am the bee and you are the pollen
37
I am the keeper you are the lion
38
I am the holes down which you would have fallen
39
If I had not been the hand who came and beckoned you
40
(and I'm not seeing this sleeping dog lie)
41
Maybe
42
You were born wrong
43
But why am I picking holes in you
44
When it's holes that we all come from?
45
Maybe I was born strong
46
To stop love from overtaking me
47
To stop love from living too long.
48
And you may be bleeding
49
And leading me to the blood flow
50
But sleep tight tonight lions
51
This keeper's never letting go.
