Il videoclip trasla il significato originario del brano dallo scenario medico ad uno più trasversale. YoutubeIl punto di vista
Le parole del testo trovano declinazione in molte altre contingenze, di cui ognuno di noi ha probabilmente fatto più o meno esperienza. Il videoclip trasla dunque il significato primo del brano dallo scenario medico ad uno più trasversale: un lui ed una lei che pur vicini non si vedono, non si incontrano.
Sulla scena la leggerezza in forma di bolle di sapone così come i sassi che ci ancorano al terreno.
Un estratto
Il testo della canzone
And I ask do you sleep at night
And I ask can you swallow your pills
And I talk, I talk, I talk and you smile
And I only think to know how you feel
Who are you on the other side of the bed?
Who are you on the other side of the bed?
‘Cause light’s turned off
And you can shake my hand
But you can’t see what’s on
And you keep your hand in that brown pocket
And you keep your legs on this chair
And you talk you talk you talk and I -sometimes- smile
And you only think how all this is unfair
Who are you on the other side of the bed?
Who are you on the other side of the bed?
‘Cause I am rough
And I can touch your face
But I can’t hold your grace
And I wish to save you and your son
And you ask me to do it and I won’t
And It’s completely imperfect but It’s true
All this time I’ve been beside you
Who are you on the other side of the bed?
Who are you on the other side of the bed?
‘Cause I’m blind
And yes, I can see through
But I can’t reach, I can’t reach, I can’t reach /
– you.
