Steady woman won’t you come on down I need you right here on the ground I’ve walked the outskirts of this town Been terrified by what I’ve found I saw a standing virgin bride Where holy Dionysus died She tore the heart from his side And laid it there and there she cried oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh She said "Hello I’m a monster too And what poisons me is what poisons you Into these animals we grew But when we were young our eyes were blue" I take my medicine on my knee twice a day but lately three it keeps the devil from my door And it makes me rich and it makes me poor I’m a beggar in the morning I’m a king at night My belt is loose and my trigger is tight I may come without warning At the speed of light Make it shine so pretty make it shine so bright I have come a long long way To stand before you here today They’re yours alone the songs I play To take with you to throw away oh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Oh I want an angel to wipe my tears Know my dreams my hopes desires and fears We may capsize but we wont drown Hold each other as the sun goes down I’m a beggar in the morning I’m a king at night My belt is loose and my trigger is tight I may come without warning At the speed of light Make it shine so pretty make it shine so bright

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque le dilemme humain entre l'espoir et la désillusion, illustrant des images puissantes de recherche d'amour et de rédemption. Le narrateur oscille entre des moments de désespoir, où il se sent comme un mendiant, et des instants de fierté, se percevant tel un roi. Il aborde des thèmes de souffrance et de dépendance, tout en désirant un soutien spirituel pour surmonter ses doutes. L'idée est que, même dans les moments sombres, l'espoir et la lumière peuvent émerger, nous rappelant l'importance d'une connexion profonde avec autrui.
