Can Ya Feel?
Beyond Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stand near me baby
Trying to find myself
I'm looking at the window
Seeing no one else

I can't remember
Whether it's night or day
My mind is burning
And it don't feel right

No, I can't feel nothing!
I can't feel nothing! No! No!

Thinking of oceans
Birds in the sky
A feeling's coming
But it just ain't right

Sky's sliding at stars
Winking at the night
The orange world is sinking
Tommorow's burning bright





I can't feel nothing! (x4)

Overall Meaning

In Beyond's song "I Can't Explain," there is a sense of confusion and disorientation in the lyrics, as the singer is struggling to connect with their surroundings and themselves. The opening lines of "Stand near me baby, trying to find myself," suggest a desire for intimacy and closeness, but the following line of "I'm looking at the window, seeing no one else" implies a feeling of isolation and separateness. The singer's inability to differentiate between night and day and their burning mind are indicators of their state of unease.


The chorus of "I can't feel nothing!" emphasizes the disconnect the singer is experiencing, as they feel numb and unable to connect with anything or anyone. The following verse suggests that the singer is attempting to find solace in nature, as they think about oceans, birds, and stars. However, their attempts are unsuccessful as they "just ain't right." The orange world sinking and tomorrow "burning bright" suggest a sense of impending doom and chaotic change, adding to the singer's sense of disorientation.


Overall, the lyrics of "I Can't Explain" convey a sense of confusion, isolation, and unease, as the singer struggles to connect with their surroundings and emotions. The numbness and disorientation that they feel suggest a desire for understanding and clarity, which they are unable to find.
