Every man loves the surreptitious smile that hides the fiend behind. Such a great line. So many great lyrics by DCD. I wish I could see them in concert one day! Please play live again!
I always played this for my ex when we were together.... I had hoped it made an impression, especially the part about conscience.... It didn't, but that's ancient history.
I would like to hear how other individuals interpret this song, especially the lyrics, "forlorn somnambulistic maniacal". Hopeless frenzied sleepwalking?
What I like about DCD is the dystopian picture they paint, yet while still leaving some glimmer of hope.
