DerMoment1608 Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 I have a question to one phrase in "By the time": By the time I'm dreaming and you've crept out on me sleeping What does "crept out" mean? All translations I found doesn't make sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neeve272 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 I have a question to one phrase in "By the time": By the time I'm dreaming and you've crept out on me sleeping What does "crept out" mean? All translations I found doesn't make sense It just means to leave quietly. To creep means to move quietly when you don't want to make any noise, so in this line it means that the person left the room/house while he was asleep, without waking him.

DerMoment1608 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 @neeve Thanks for your answer Now the whole song makes sense for me ******* I have some more questions to parts of Mikas lyrics. Mostly parts, which "feel" like phrases or where the translation in the dictionary didn't makes sense to me so I thought maybe there is another meaning. Sorry, it's very much. 1) at an open door (I was a boy at an open door. Why are you staring? Do you still think that you know? from "We are golden") Does it mean that everybody could see what he is doing? (Like the opposite of living hiding or invisible for others?) Or more like living at a house, were people would come and go all the time? And is there a wordplay? Because I've read this in an review: "With a chorus we’ve heard several times before, and grindingly chirpy lyrical wordplay, ‘I was a boy - at an open door - why you staring - do you still think that you know?’" I don't get the wordplay. Can somebody explain? -- 2) tripping over (And I'm dreaming I'm tripping over you from "I see you") In the dictionary it says that it means "stumbling" which would be a "negative" meaning. But the speaker says that he is dreaming of tripping over the other person. And you dream of "positive" things usually -- 3) Think you're a woman (Think you're a woman I think you should from "Blue eyes") May there is a hidden meaning? Cause this line doesn't make sense to me. Why should the speaker think that she is a women? I mean, she is a woman? (Well, if the speaker is a woman. From only the lyrics it's "gender neutral", it could also be a man. But Mika tells about a women in one video where he explains "Blue eyes") -- 4) Let it go (Well you're looking tough but you need a way to let it go from "Touches you") -- 5) What's the matter with + gerund (…ing) (What's the matter with going places from "One foot boy") If "What's the matter?" is used with an substantive it means "What's wrong", I think. (Like in "What's the matter with you?"). But if I use "What's the matter" in combination with a verb, does it "change" the meaning? I couln't find the combination in the dictionary, but I googled for examples and from the context it seems like it means "What is the difficulty/concern?" (What's the matter with going home at 2:30? What's the matter with going to church on your own?) Is this right or am I wrong? -- 6) Literal meaning of drown (All these places only drown me from "One foot boy") Does it have a positive or a negative meaning? -- 7) To bear a cruel cross (Its a cruel cross that I have to bear from "Toy Boy") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sienna Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 You have some good questions there DerMoment and I really hope one of the native English speakers would come in and help you! Some of them I have been wondering about too. All I can say is that there always seems to be hard to understand Mika's lyrics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmbm Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I have some more questions to parts of Mikas lyrics.

Can somebody explain? Well since Mika wrote the lyrics, we can't know for sure what he meant, but I interpret it as he's wondering what to do and if he should stay or go. "Open door" just works as the divider between him and the world. 2) tripping over (And I'm dreaming I'm tripping over you from "I see you") In the dictionary it says that it means "stumbling" which would be a "negative" meaning. But the speaker says that he is dreaming of tripping over the other person. And you dream of "positive" things usually Well he's upset because this person will never love him back, so therefore that would require a negative meaning. He's not bouncing on clouds in love or anything, he's in love with the person whom he hardly knows and he wants to tell them but he's too afraid so he just stares at them. It's depressing. 3) Think you're a woman (Think you're a woman I think you should from "Blue eyes") May there is a hidden meaning? Cause this line doesn't make sense to me. Why should the speaker think that she is a women? I mean, she is a woman? (Well, if the speaker is a woman. From only the lyrics it's "gender neutral", it could also be a man. But Mika tells about a women in one video where he explains "Blue eyes") Yeah, I have no idea ab out this one 4) Let it go (Well you're looking tough but you need a way to let it go from "Touches you") That can either mean to "forget about it" or to "express how you're feeling" 5) What's the matter with + gerund (…ing) (What's the matter with going places from "One foot boy") If "What's the matter?" is used with an substantive it means "What's wrong", I think. (Like in "What's the matter with you?"). But if I use "What's the matter" in combination with a verb, does it "change" the meaning?

What's the matter with going to church on your own?) Is this right or am I wrong? No idea.... 6) Literal meaning of drown (All these places only drown me from "One foot boy") Does it have a positive or a negative meaning? "Drown" usually has a negative connotation 7) To bear a cruel cross (Its a cruel cross that I have to bear from "Toy Boy") I remember someone saying that that's a famous saying. I guess it just means that he has a hard life. Hope that helped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vedrana Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I remember someone saying that that's a famous saying. I guess it just means that he has a hard life. yeah..."a cross to bear" - we have same expression in my language...like burden, something unpleasant in your life with what you have to live...i think it might have origin in some New Testament story...did Jesus had to bear cross on way to Golgotha for his own crucifixion? I'm not sure. (what was I thinking about on my religion classes God knows!)
