The Killers - Spaceman (Album Version)

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

It started with a low light
Next thing I knew, they ripped me from my bed
And then they took my blood type
It left a strange impression in my head

You know that I was hoping
That I could leave this star-crossed world behind
But when they cut me open
I guess I changed my mind

And you know I might have just flown too far
from the floor this time, cuz' they're calling me by my name
And they're zippin' white light beams
Disregarding phones and satellites

And that was the turning point
That was one lonely night

The star maker says "it ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says "everybody look down
it's all in your mind"

But now I'm back at home and
I'm looking forward to this life I live
You know it's gonna haunt me
So hesitation to this life I give

You think you might cross over
You're caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
You better look it over
Before you make that leap

And you know I'm fine
But I hear those voices at night sometimes
They justify my claim
And the public don't dwell on my transmission
Cuz' it wasn't televised

But it was a turning point, oh what a lonely night

The star maker says "it ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says "everybody look down
it's all in your mind"

My global position systems are vocally addressed
They say the Nile used to run from east to west
They say the Nile used to run
From east to west

I'm fine, but I hear those voices at night sometimes

The star maker says "it ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says "everybody look down
it's all in your mind"

It's all in your mind

It's all in my mind

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

what's this song about?

[Trevdaman]

Being abducted by aliens

[cowardlygoomba]

@Trevdaman I thought it was about suicide.

"Next thing I knew, they ripped me from my bed

And then they took my blood type" = he's in the hospital after trying to commit suicide

"You know that I was hoping

That I could leave this star-crossed world behind" = he wanted to die

"You're caught between the devil and the deep blue sea

You better look it over

Before you make that leap" = you'd better think about it before you jump.

[Trevdaman]

@cowardlygoomba that is a good point, but in a few interviews Brandon Flowers said it was about being abducted by aliens

[Poopyheadnumber1]

@Trevdaman i thought it was suicide? 

[Trevdaman]

@Poopyheadnumber1 No, it's about being abducted by aliens

[Crow2544]

It doesn't matter cause it means another song from day & age!

[MyPolymerHeart]

I went to their concert in 2009. They had this thing that if you texted this # on this bill-board type thingy that your message would go on it, and someone asked a girl to marry him XD how sweet

[MsTigerpower]

Oi! if Brandon said that then surely killers fans would believe him? he wouldn't lie, he is actually a trustable non-liar WHATEVER person xD <3 as usual, LOVE THE KILLERS! ;D
