Semi Charmed Life by Third Eye Blind(lyrics)

[@jasonlatoski6298]

To whom ìt may concern we survived the 90s and we find ourselves crawling back to the things we escaped because they are the only thing that brings us comfort and or solace when we need it most

[@MusicLeeSarah]

​@@Chrissy-xi8jn0 my god right everyone always said don't be in a rush to grow up and and when I have kids it's like don't blink or you'll miss it and I always felt like as a kid god it's taking forever to grow up and when my kids were little it was like they'll be babies forever and now I'm like when did my kids grow up? when did I get old? why was I in such a rush so long for the things of yesterday? I used to ask myself why I didn't listen to people when they told me those things but had I listened I still feel like I'd be asking the same questions

Blew me away, been Jamin this as a teenager, they'd played it at our high school prom and now seeing alot of the lyrics IK they didn't even listen to the list of songs we submitted 😂

[@nichtsistkostenlos6565]

When you really listen to the lyrics, they're even more haunting than they seem, even when you realize it's about meth addiction. The verse is him recalling his relationship with a girl who's clearly also addicted and not being able to distinguish the good times in his relationship from the times that he's high while slowly realizing that his entire relationship is built on this codependency on the drug. The chorus is essentially a plea to get out the situation, but he can't seem to stop himself. The upbeat nature of the music, I assume, is to try to replicate the feeling of the drug and how it seductively pulls you in, but once you're in it (as in actually listening to the lyrics), you realize how depraved the singer feels. It's honestly a really sad song.

[@tinafoster8665]

@Walter The Terrible hehe, true tho xx

[@tinafoster8665]

Perfect analysis, they both start out only wanting a little motivation, then wonders why he can't be satisfied with just sex and falling asleep like he used to, well Einstein ( him, not you) how you do that, is you stop doing this s***. As much as you might hate stopping to do it, you simply stop doing it , you let yourself run out and you don't get any more. As a subject with which I have some personal experience LOL, I can say that although I can say I'm an addict I'm not an idiot addict. Of course I realize every addict says that, but really the truth is in the pudding. Either you are about what you say youre about, or you're not, and I like getting high, but I don't like dying to do it. And at the end, you are right that it is really a sad though happily presented tune, because he's actually saying goodbye more to the meth then he is to his girlfriend

[@tinafoster8665]

I just realized also, what you were saying about the chorus? That goes into something my boyfriend always says, meth and Coke and stuff like that, you always treat like a guest who leaves every night, not somebody who stays

Thank you for posting the correct lyric "heading off the ground", as in a euphemism for "getting high", everywhere I look online it's posted as "head made of the ground", which makes no damn sense, especially considering the following line: "I'm scared, I'm not coming down".

Hahah facts

[@kidz4p509]

Straight from what I found on Wikipedia: "Semi-Charmed Life" was written solely by frontman Stephan Jenkins. Jenkins intended to write a song that acted as a San Francisco response to Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side", with the "doo, doo, doot" chants present throughout the song being directly inspired by Reed's song. In regards to the style of the song, Jenkins explained that it is meant to reflect changes that were occurring in the San Francisco music scene, particularly a growing interest in hip-hop. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Jenkins said that the concept of the song was developed through his observations of friends using crystal meth at a Primus concert. The juxtaposition of the music and lyrical content was intentional, as Jenkins intended to illustrate the "bright, shiny feeling" one gets when using crystal meth. However, Jenkins maintains that the meaning of the song more broadly relates to changing periods in one's life. He further explained the meaning of the song: "It’s about living in the Lower Haight [in San Francisco] and all the machinations that were going on at a time where my friend group was finally out of the [educational] institutions that we’d been in our whole lives - because we’d all been in school since kindergarten and everybody now was in their early 20s and out of college. And then probably underneath that, also the weight of coming to terms with the kind of agony that your life is always about to change and never be reliable." - Stephen Jenkins. Jenkins was initially against the decision to release "Semi-Charmed Life" as the lead single from Third Eye Blind, as he did not believe that it was representative of the work as a whole. Guitarist Kevin Cadogan was concerned with the explicit lyrical content of the song, as he had fears that radio stations would refuse to play the song. Elektra Records suggested that the band release "Semi-Charmed Life" as their debut single as opposed to "Losing a Whole Year", then prompting the release of several radio edits of the song. Upon the song's success, Jenkins explained that he felt most listeners misinterpreted the song to simply be a "happy summertime jam".

[@VEHICLEFAN5500]

is a track about longing for something different and wanting to escape from the mundane day to day life, while also battling with feelings of yearning and regret. The protagonist is looking for a way out from their current lifestyle which is described as a "semi-charmed kind of life" - a life which is filled with drugs, partying and superficial relationships. The chorus speaks to this idea of wanting something more than the same old routine. The bridge conveys the idea of wanting to return to a happier time before the "velvet it rips in the city" and the outro expresses a desire to go back to a place before the life of excess and addiction even began. The song speaks to the common feeling of wanting to break free from the status quo with its catchy chorus and wistful lyrics.
