| Woooow, is it just me...or they have kind of like a U2-like vibe?? I love the song, and think the meaning can easily be adapted to the meaning we each want to give it. | |

| Damn, I hadn't noticed those comments up there (about U2), anyway, I feel happy not to be the only one who thinks so. | |

| Actually there are not any guitars. Tim Rice-Oxley created the guitar effects on the album using a keyboard and effects pedal. | |

| Ahem, First entry ^^ ! I interpret this song the way that he's with a girl and he feels bored and doesn't know how to take back animosity in his relation. | |

| to begin w/.. i like this new up-beat keane!! lyrical-wise.. i feel like it connects to me. like he knew me nad wrote it 4 me!! (it's weird...) but apart from a relationship, what if he's talking about life?? its twists and turns (see MV) stressing us out (-"is it any wondor i feel tired...uptight...") and confusing us (- "i don't know what's right") and paranoid (-"afraid" "betrayed")?? interesting about the "lonely cathedral". does he find nothing in a church?? (like me?? and death cab 4 cutie's crooked teeth??) strange ideas, i kno that's what i feel..... :) o and "love is just a lyric in a children's rhyme" :D | |

| I think he feels his ex has screwed him over, and he feels betrayed. It sounds like he just wanted a normal relationship, but his significant other was maybe wild or immoral or whatever (hence "the good and true"). It's quite relatable. And I actually thought this was U2 the first time I heard it.. his voice sounds a lot like Bono's. | |

| They DO sound a bit like U2 in this song, particularly the song Zoo Station. Maybe it's just me, but I like Keane with the addition of guitars. | |

| I think this song is amazing. They sound a lot like U2. But that's not a bad thing. Are those... guitars I hear, Keane? Oh, I also think that maybe the theme of this song was borne out of the conflicts between the band members while making this album. I read that they nearly broke up while making it, and maybe this song reflects the emotions they felt during that time. | |

| At first I didn't pay too much attention to this song when they premiered it on BBC1 but now I'm completely obsessed with it. I think i might even BUY the album! Definitely not Bedshaped but I think better. I think it might be ,although the quote from Rolling Stone might be true, about someone being naive and believing the world truly was a good place but then coming to realise that everyone was just laughing at him for his ideas. He feels betrayed and bitter for being treated like a fool. He's clearly questioning the world and blaming it for his anger which these days can be understood! In a way it ties with the Rolling Interview it's like the anthem to our generation. | |

| Yes i thought that they were not guitars, sounded more an effect the Tim created! i suppose an easy way to notice is if u look at any live rendition of this track, there are no guitars there!!! | |

| something he didn't expect has taken place, and now he's completely confused. it was something he never would have thought to happen - like one's wife having an affair or one's child dying. | |

| I just wanted to say I love the line "love is just a lyric in a children's rhyme". It's so beautiful and so depressing. I hope the whole album is as good as this | |
