Can someone tell me the meaning of this song?

[CAUSASIAN]

I got in a huge fight with my fiance last night. And usually after that happens I ignore her for like 3 days. She called about 3 times today, and I ignored it. But she left this American song on my voicemail.

I am trying to figure out what the hell this song means?

Any ideas?

I typed the lyrics on GOOGLE and found out the song is - Behind Blue Eyes - The Who.

No one knows what it's like

To be the bad man

To be the sad man

Behind blue eyes



No one knows what it's like

To be hated

To be fated

To telling only lies



But my dreams

They aren't as empty

As my conscience seems to be



I have hours, only lonely

My love is vengeance

That's never free



No one knows what it's like

To feel these feelings

Like I do

And I blame you



No one bites back as hard

On their anger

None of my pain and woe

Can show through



But my dreams

They aren't as empty

As my conscience seems to be



I have hours, only lonely

My love is vengeance

That's never free



When my fist clenches, crack it open

Before I use it and lose my cool

When I smile, tell me some bad news

Before I laugh and act like a fool



If I swallow anything evil

Put your finger down my throat

If I shiver, please give me a blanket

Keep me warm, let me wear your coat



No one knows what it's like

To be the bad man

To be the sad man

Behind blue eyes

Dude, she is hurting and it's your fault, or shall I say she is blaming yoiu for some stupid shit that you did or didn't do. Chick drama, typical crap. talk it out, if you guys can't communicate now, you got no reason to get married.

Good song tho.

Thanks.

So, that song is not an attack on me?

It means that she is hurting, and blaming me for it?

[Phreak101]

This is such a great song. In a nutshell, he is cursed with the label of being an evil person, which he is...not many of us try to put ourselves in the shoes of bad people to sympathize with them, hence the lyric "no one knows what it's like". He is defending himself to a degree, saying he does have still good within him "but my dreams they aren't as empty as my conscience seems to be".

He blames the world "you" for his curse, as do most evil people, but he is still willing to accept help from those who are willing to offer it. The irony of the song is who wants to help the bad man? How can you help someone if you have no idea what it's like to be in their shoes? He is doomed.

Very good song from a very good band. How this song is relevent to a fight between you two I don't know...maybe she feels like it's her fault and she wants you to understand what she's going through....

[Hard Head]

Thanks.

Exactly Your fault. Get used to it.

Nice work but this is way, way too deep for some chick to come up with PLUS with English as a second language, naaahhhh....

[steve0]

you better get her some flowers and say ur sorry, dude then have makeup sex !!!!

[scriptfactory]

She's saying you are evil and that you need help...

[CAUSASIAN]

Thanks guys.

I was just confused if she was singing the song about herself or about me.

[CAUSASIAN]

She's saying you are evil and that you need help...

That is exacty what I thought when I first heard that song.

Oh well..

[Phreak101]

Agreed

Women are evil, bro. I have had girls do the same thing. They send you stupid "song messages" that supposedly have something to do with the relationship and if you don't figure it out they get all mad at you.

If you want to stay with her my best advice is to kiss her ass. Give her some nice flowers, chocolate, whatever. Say you're sorry even if you didn't do anything.

If you don't want to stay with her you have a perfect exit strategy. She might even give you some sex before you leave, to try to keep you.

[SwoleCat]

I think it means grab a 40 ounce and get at it doggystyle with a fat spliff in your mouth, huge mirrors, disco lights, and incense.

Then again, I just skimmed it over.

Yeah I know. I was married when I was 17 to a Polish girl (big mistake) and got divored right away.

But this girl is weird, if you are nice to her, she acts like a moron. If you are mean to her, she treats you like a king.

I might use the exit strategy, I think I am too young to handle women seriously. And we dont have sex till marriage.

Don't forget the midget that runs out of the closet and tickles your balls on command...otherwise yeah I think SC's interpretation of it is about as spot on as mine....

[Hard Head]

To quote my favorite line from Monty Python

"RUN AWAY"

But you should hit it first, go like Swole.

[Prada]

Okay? So she listens to Limp Bizkit for guidance, spiritual aid, awakening and to send you unsubliminal messages?
You do know that Mr. Durst abuses illicit substances and Im not talking about steroids ?

[GQ-Bouncer]

it means your not paying attention to her and not making her feel special - she's feeling emptyness in the relationship

but seriously, i would advise you to start taking her to do fun stuff (like go rock climbing, hiking at exotic places etc.), be more intimate with her, make her feel special and stuff

good luck brutha

[grimmace]

i agree with swolecat

[Animal Cracker]

Well, when a couple is still at a "song" stage...as in "that is our song", "that is our break-up song" or that is our "summer song" or the "song I dedicated to you on 95.6"....there is still a great deal of maturing to do! Give her a few more ice-cream season...things will get better.

[Animal Cracker]

Besides...when was the last time I heard of any songs being used as flirting/break-up/invites-to-hump/I am-pissed-at-you message...oh yeah, Talk Dirty to Me, Poison..but then again, I was 15!

[Mizfit]

usually when we relate to songs it's because we relate to what the artist is trying to articulate

[decadbal]

dont know, i dont listen to that crap

[lowstace]

its the the Who one of the best songs ever behind blue eyes...I feel sorry for any one 4 when they hear that song thinks of limp bizit... did your soon to be wife play the Who song or limp bizit

I have done everything there is to do, trust me. Its just that she is ungrateful.

Anyway everything is cool now.

But I will get in a fight again surely in less than 1 month.

[SnaX]

Why don't you ask her why she left that song, instead of asking the internet.
Sure fire plan if you ask me. It usually works real well... the communication thing. If it bugs you that much, just remember that action cures fear.

I wasnt talking to her, that is the point.

Ignoring her for 3 days is very mature on your part.

[Phreak101]

You should send her back David Banner's "Play", the unedited version. She will know how much you love her then....Let me see you drip sweat!

Or Gun's N Roses "Back off Bitch". Always a GF pleaser.
