Freudiana

An introduction to the world of Sigmund Freud

Lead Vocal: Eric Woolfson

I was alone in my room feeling sorry for myself.

Call me a prophet of doom, I could think of nothing else.

I found a Freudian book gathering dust upon my shelf.

I thought I'll give it a look, would it hurt or would it help?

Freudiana, do you want to be somebody?

Freudiana, do you want to change the world?

I met the Wolfman and the Ratman, Anna-O and Little Hans.

They were walking on a tightrope,

I never thought they had a chance.

And then a hand reached out to hold them just before they tumbled down.

But I was standing in a quicksand and I could not feel the ground.

Freudiana, do you want to be somebody?

Freudiana, do you want to change the world?

I look back and try to find the part of me that I don't know.

I won't stop till I see the truth.

There's such a long way to go.

I saw a picture of a stranger but I didn't understand.

He had a ring around his finger and something burning in his hand.

And I wanted him to teach me and I needed to believe.

But the shadows that he threw me were intended to deceive.

Freudiana, do you want to be somebody?

Freudiana, do you want to change the world?

e adesso si apre il gioco delle speculazioni: è un omaggio o un attacco alle teorie di Freud? è possibile capirlo solo dal testo o bisogna riferirsi all'autore del testo attraverso interviste o altro? quelle "ombre" che dovevano "ingannare" mi lasciano alquanto perplesso, though... e chi è la voce narrante? quale "caso" del dottor Freud ci sta raccontando la sua storia?

mi accingo a salpare verso il mare di incertezza, alla ricerca di una soluzione all'arcano dilemma
