Radiohead - high and dry

주인공은 성공과 인정을 위한 치열한 삶을 살지만, 그런 과정에서 정작 소중한 인간 관계와 감정은 방치되어 고통받는다
결국 그는 잃어버린 것에 대한 그리움과 외로움을 느끼며, 상대방에게 자신을 더 이상 버리지 말아달라고 애원한다
이 노래는 성공 뒤에 숨겨진 외로움과 갈망을 잘 드러낸다

Two jumps in a week
I bet you think
that's pretty
clever don't you boy
Flying on
your motorcycle
watching all the
ground beneath you drop
You'd kill yourself
for recognition
kill yourself
to never ever stop
You broke
another mirror
you're turning into
something you are not

Don't leave me high
don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
don't leave me dry

Drying up
in conversation
you'll be the one
who cannot talk
All your insides
fall to pieces
you just sit there
wishing you could
still make love
They're the ones
who'll hate you
when you think
you've got the
world all sussed out
They're the ones
who'll spit on you
you'll be the
one screaming out

Don't leave me high
don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
don't leave me dry

Oh it's the best
thing that
you ever had
the best thing that
you ever ever had
It's the best thing
that you ever had
the best thing you
have had has
gone away

Don't leave me high
don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me high
don't leave me dry
