| Well, now that you mention it it -could- maybe be about a prostitute, but that's not the way i personally interpret the song. The way i see it is...ok, no idea what the first bit about coming out of his cage is, perhaps that's just him taking a turning point in his life and like gaining confidence and going out and meeting a woman. k, so, yeah, he meets this woman and it "starts out with a kiss" but then he starts falling in love with her when perhaps he shouldnt (maybe he knew that she would not be interested) so he asks himself "how did it end up like this" ie, how could he make the mistake of falling in love with a woman that's only interested in having a spot of fun. --That's just my theory on the first half of the first verse, really. My main interpretation comes in when it starts to talk about this other man that the woman is spending time with. Now, there are one of two situations this guy is in. 1) Him and this woman have just been seeing each other, she's not attached to him really. However, because he's fallen in love with him, he's angry and upset because he knows that she doesnt want him, and is just going off with 'the next guy on the list'. 2) They are together, and they do want each other, but every time she goes out with other male friends he starts getting jealous and worried. He imagines("and it's all in my head") these other guys getting with her, and it starts "taking control" of his head; that's all he can think about. (2) seems quite likely to me, it fits in really well with the end of the verse and the whole chorus: the talk about jealousy, sick lullabies - his thoughts&dreams(turned to nightmares by his paranoia) and then he says "but it's just the price i pay" ie, he has to put up with this paranoia if he wants to be with her. Dunno, i could be -entirely- wrong, but that's just what i think :) | |

| I also think that in the girl calling the cab is a cab to go to the narrators place not home to her house with her husband/boyfriend. | |

| To Zeve: Your interpretation is more clearer to me And also ---> Antimyopia, your interpretation of the title of the song "Mr. Brightside" is very thorough. I just want to say thank you. Is great when we great minds. Thanks!1 | |

| What does actually "MR Brightside" mean? @MICMAK: "this is just the price I pay" i think this has nothing to do with real money. it just the price, that he did not get her..... | |
