Fuel - Shimmer what the hell is this song about??

[Larry David]

i mean seriously....wtf is this dude talkin about?



She calls me from the cold
Just when I was low, feeling short of stable
And all that she intends
And all she keeps inside, isnt on the label
She says shes ashamed
And can she take me for awhile
And can I be a friend, well forget the past
But maybe Im not able
And I break at the bend

Were here and now, but will we ever be again
cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again

She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry surprise, pink linen and white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her
She says that love is for fools who fall behind
And Im somewhere in between
I never really know
A killer from a savior
til I break at the bend

Its too far away for me to hold
Its too far away...

Guess Ill let it go

it's about a girl who keeps stringing this guy along because she doesn't know what she wants out of their relationship and even though he thinks the world of her he knows he needs to let her go. it's pretty simple to interpret.

Except that's only one view on it. MANY PEOPLE believe the song is about drugs.
How a drug has all these promises of a better life/feeling, yet all that is written on the label isn't really what you get. Let me smoke a cigarette and get in a quiet place. Be back soon ...
