Undisclosed Desires

I made an account jsut to reply to this post. Dude spot on interpretation, Gave me the chills to read honestly, and yes any song about sex would be too shallow for Matthew to write. which made your interpretation so much better

I agree. Matt is not shallow and a song about sex or anything like that would imply he is. Not to mention it would turn away thousands of fans. One of the many reasons I listen to Muse is because none of the songs are about sex or booze or money. You just can't find anything pure in today's society. And when people find a song about intimate relationships they squeal and are all "Ooh! They're kissing" And crap like that. None of them are mature enough. I'm 12 and I'm already more mature than most 30 year old people! Golly! Some think right away this song is about sex. Well, it isn't. If you ponder it, you find it is a sad song. It makes me cry! He loves her despite her faults and wants to heal her from past relationships that have obviously scared her! And when he says:<br /> Please me<br /> Show me how it's done<br /> Tease me<br /> You are the one<br /> Most think: sex. They are wrong. Please me, meaning let me be with you. Show me how it's done, meaning tell me how not to hurt you because I don't want you hurt. Tease me, meaning she lets him in, then shuts him out. You are the one. That one's just self explanatory. <br /> <br />

As i started reading the comments from the beginning, yours is the best I read so far. As for the sexual note that many seem to find in this song, it might be true, but not without the strong emotional involvement that speaks from the lyrics and melody. Later on I read that apparantly it´s a song about an (ex) girlfriend of matthew, so then your intepretation makes even more sense.

Agree with the above.<br /> <br /> "I know you suffered<br /> But I don't want you to hide<br /> It's cold and loveless<br /> I won't let you be denied"<br /> <br /> She's suffered in the past in relationships, but doesn't want her to shut everyone off. Its saying that I know that where you are right now is cold and loveless, but it doesn't have to be that way and I can change that.<br /> <br /> "Soothe me<br /> I'll make you feel pure<br /> Trust me<br /> You can be sure"<br /> <br /> I'll take away the pain, and you can trust that I won't hurt you.<br /> <br /> "I want to reconcile the violence in your heart<br /> I want to recognize your beauty is not just a mask<br /> I want to exorcise the demons from your past<br /> I want to satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart"<br /> <br /> There is violence in her heart, to the point where past pain has driven her to push everyone away through whatever means necessary in order to not be hurt. Even with all of that, she is still an incredible person and has amazing inner beauty. Exorcise the demons: Help her trust and love again and be able to look back without feeling pain. Satisfy the undisclosed desires (can be taken sexually, of course), but I think that this speaks to him understanding that in her heart she craves more but is to scared to allow those desires to love and closeness to be disclosed to anyone.<br /> <br /> "You trick your lovers that you're wicked and divine<br /> You may be a sinner<br /> But your innocence is mine"<br /> <br /> She acts both ways. At times, she'll open herself up a little bit and allow someone in, and they'll see the 'divine' side of her. But, more often she keeps her mask up, and that mask is of a carefree 'wicked' girl. Her actions lead people to believe she is a sinner (by the puritan definition), but he understands that it is all an act she puts up to try and keep people away.<br /> <br /> "Please me<br /> Show me how it's done<br /> Tease me<br /> You are the one"<br /> <br /> Again, this could be taken sexually. But, it can be taken in another way as well. 'Please me, show me how it's done' - Make me happy, open yourself up, show me who you really are.. 'Tease me, you are the one' - She is teasing him by letting her guard down a little bit at a time, and even through those small cracks in her armor he can tell that she is the one.<br /> <br />

one person got it. that's it?

first i feel there were hope sparking between in the lyrics of this song,then i realise,if i keep looking forward other people to save me that i will be vulnerable if that person can't handle it. so my new enpowering song is patrick wolf's Lycanthropy .boy's are pricks let's cut their penis off and be our own hero!!!

I really like this song as well. There is a woman I like. She is a dancer so she has to trick guys all and make them think she is wicked and divine. It is so hard for her to get to really know guys and people in general. The girls in the clubs have a life of deception and using people and they use and deceive each other. Guys fall all over them because of how they have to act and look to get there money. They have to tease them and some of the guys fall in love and spend a pile of money and spend a bunch of time in the club. He sees her inner self and is in love with her heart and soul. He knows her pain and her emptiness. HE wants to help her live again and be happy.

not really.... I mean, supermassive black hole is about sex. and I believe this song is about this girl whot ricks men into thinking she's wicked, and she used to a be a horrible person fucking everyone. he doesn't care, he wants to do everything for her she's always wanted to have done to her (non sexually and sexually). he wants to heal her.

I think..in fact no, im sure that "GottaSecret" explanation is more meaningful and gets the right point out of this song....:)<br /> <br /> <br /> btw...Epic Lyrics

This song is quite touching. Many songs by this Band are quite good. I agree with GottaSecret..this song is about earning the trust of someone and helping put down their walls that have been built due to past hurts. It's quite beautiful to be loved in this way. For someone to help you heal instead of hurting you. But there is a sexual undertone contrasted with the purity of the intent. Good and Bad.

I also think that he is saying that despite her loss of innocence, he will treat her as if she were pure hence, "I'll make you feel pure". I can totally relate.
