Coma
Innocent Bystander Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As we begin let me start it from the end
From a noose into a friend
Salivating in a hurry
Hurry now as the colours they will seep
But the more I fall asleep
There's an angel right beside me

I know the road is long
Acidic afterglow
Colours of yellow swings a door
I'll happily go if I just

Fall for anything, walk with overhauls
Not for anyone, coma
Worries, worries me, overtaking you and me
As we're living in a coma

From the end let me start where we begin
Where the signals they descend
Accidentally if only
Silver key for the ones in misery
Like an island in a sea
There's angel right beside me

I know the road is long
Acidic afterglow
Colours of yellow swings a door
I'll happily go if I just

Fall for anything, walk with overhauls
Not for anyone, coma
Worries, worries me, overtaking you and me
As we're living in a coma

Coma, I've been living in a coma
I've been living in a coma




I've been living in a....
I've been living in a coma

The chorus of the song conveys a sense of surrender and acceptance, with the repetition of the line "I know the road is long."
