Out of the blue
Astarti String Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

********************************
I'm a man without a soul...Honey---
Who lost it while parading it, in a town full of thieves--
why'see I didn't want to be with any people I know.
But god knows, I didn't want to be alone--
So I showered down--left my little room
And jumped in my car for protection from hostility
Well it ain't easy to be bold--in an unknown city--
I was feeling strong mouthed, but weak willed.
When I ran into the cure...for my ills--
Don't tell me what your name is--
I want your body, not your mind,
I want a feeling, worth paying for before I say goodbye
But as I was talking, I couldn't look her in the eyes,
I just kept wondering,--
How many men unleashed their frustration between her thighs?
Well my adrenalin, was curdling like cream,
as I was being led by the hand.
through the sound of sirens--
and the distant noise of some drunken jazz band,
through the stench of disinfectant--
that "INFECTED" my head,
through the darkness of a corridor
and into a strangers bed.
Well I didn't want to hurt your feelings, honey
but I couldn't suppress my own,
I had to pull myself outta this nosedive
by proving something to myself.
She was lying on her back
with her lips parted.
Squealing like a stuffed pig--
I was going through the motions
faking the emotions,
and wriggling around like lizard in a tin.
Trying so hard to cleanse myself,
I was turning into somebody else.
I was trying so hard to please myself,
I was turning into somebody else.
I was trying so hard to be myself
I was turning into somebody else.




Come my love--with your desire--
Out of the blue...and into the fire!!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Astarti String Orchestra's song "Out of the Blue" convey the story of a man who has lost his soul and is searching for a feeling of worth in a town full of thieves. He struggles with his fear of being alone, and though he is feeling strong-mouthed, he is still weak-willed as he looks for companionship. He meets a woman, but instead of connecting with her on an emotional level, he searches for a feeling that is worth paying for. But as he goes through the motions of physical pleasure, he is struggling with his own identity, as if he is turning into someone else. The song is a reflection on the struggle of finding one's true self in a world that demands conformity.


The lyrics of "Out of the Blue" have multiple interpretations, but together they tell a story of a person who is seeking an escape from their mundane life, hoping to find something outside of themselves to make them feel alive again. The singer of the song is searching for an experience that can help him find his identity and validate his existence. The woman is essentially a vessel for him to feel alive again, and he is struggling to be in the moment and enjoy the physical act of sex, as he wonders about the woman's past experiences. He seeks the thrill of the unknown and the excitement of experiencing something new, but in the end, he is still struggling with his own identity.
