And you would try anything
To escape your meaningless
And your insignificance
You're uncontrollable
And we are unlovable
And I don't want you to think that I care
I never would, I never could again
Why be such a monster?
You burn me from a distance
Your brain needs some assistance
But I'll still take all the blame
'Cause you and me are both one and the same
And its driving me mad
And its driving me mad
I didn't realize I was talking to the living dead
And I dont want you to think that I care
I never would, I never could again
And you would try anything
To escape your meaningless
And your insignificance

I really agree with Themuse97. the whole split personality doesn't sound like matt's style, quite frankly. and what howz_q said makes no sense really either. If he is trying to make himself believe he isn't in love, why would he be saying "why can't you just love her?" or "you bully from a distance"? he wants his dad to love his mom. that's what makes the most sense.

I love this song! Matts voice gets so desperate. I love the way the song really heats up one the line "why can't you just love her" it really rocks! muse are a cool band

i thought it was "you bully from a distance" that makes the most sense. i also love this song. matt bellamy sings so emotionally like someone is breaking his heart...

i just heard of muse a coupel days ago and i am liking it !

its about a guy fighting wiv himself.Like a split personality.

well i think it's the split personality thing too, but i'm not sure.

It has to be a split personality - or maybe a really close relation like a brother

wen i first herd it i thought it was about being in a really bad and violent relationship, and it alternates voices between the person being abused or whatever and an onlooker. so the girl or whatever says shes unlovable, and then the onlooker says why cant u just love her (i love that line). well maybe not, but thats what i thought when i first herd it.

to me, this song is about someone who is in love with someone who doesnt love them back, and is trying to make themselves believe that they arent in love...

Hows___q, u just hit the nail on the head for me! I was listening to this song today, while trying 2 make up with this guy, which wasn't exactly successful, we were v close, and summat happened, now we're not but i still love him loads, but i don't wanna! grr
