| | Exit Music (For a Film) Lyrics Artist(Band):Radiohead
The drying of your tears Today.. we escape We escape. Pack and get dressed Before your father hears us Before.. all hell.. breaks loose. Breathe... keep breathing Don't lose.. your nerve. Breathe... keep breathing I can't do this.. alone. Sing us a song A song to keep us walking There's such a chill Such a CHILL. You can laugh A spineless laugh We hope your rules and wisdom choke you Now we are one In everlasting peace We hope that you choke.. that you choke We hope that you choke.. that you choke We hope that you choke.. that you choke If you find some error in Exit Music (For a Film) Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?

Review about Exit Music (For a Film) We hope that you choke. | Reviewer: Kara | 9/11/09 I think this song shows the somber exit from confinement to freedom. A love story filled with complicated variables. Such as the father not liking the other partner and so on. So they escape together and finally become one and on their own. But the way the song is played out is rather a quiet leave...they exit out of the difficult life together to reach the best for themselves. And in a way, the couple os proving a slap in the face to the father. As they say that they hope the fathers very rules of keeping them apart and perhaps the lost wisdom and spineless laugh that they couldn't be together would come back to choke him as he comes to terms that his daughter or son had ran away and left him alone. They give no remorse for the father for what he has forbid...for he gave them no mercy and made them take this as the only option to truly be happy. To exit. what I see. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/14/09 To me this film tells of a lonely protagonist who is soon to reach the inevitable point in his life, his death. There are two entities of this protagonist, his heart and his soul. "Breathe... keep breathing Don't lose.. your nerve.Breathe... keep breathing I can't do this.. alone." His body wants to stay alive but the protagonist's soul knows that despite the death of his shell, the soul will live on forever without the body. The lyric "we hope that you choke" is also referring to fate. exit music | Reviewer: dima | 7/6/09 This is a hymn to unhappiness. It can be interpretted in any way you want as long as you are feeling miserable. Unhappiness is part of life this is a melodic and harmonic testimony of its existance. One of my favorite songs... yes, that is brilliant... not so necessarily narrow | Reviewer: Thomas | 6/29/09 I understand that this song was made for the reason of being the music for the end of romeo and juliet, but come on now, its radiohead! they have tons of double meanings in their music! yes the song is about the walk towards death romeo and juliet take, but underneath it contains the essence of what shakespeare's message was for romeo and juliet, that being, change is inevitable and old rules and traditions can be extremely hurtful. no, radiohead did not come up with that, shakespeare did, but its important to understand the reason behind why romeo and juliet were running away from their parent's rules to their death. there's my two cents. i love this song and i love you radiohead! keep making more music, i love all of it from pablo honey to in rainbows! What I see | Reviewer: Lucas | 6/25/09 What I see is probably too obvious, but it's what it represents to me, not what I think it's about. I see a boyfriend sneaking into his girl's home and helping her to run away from home. And then it tells about their journey, like the part "sing us a song..." I picture both at night with a chilling cold, but they have nothing but each other, so they sing to keep themselves warm. After this they're talking to society and how it's destroying itself with all the rules and stuff. That was my take =) What this song says to me | Reviewer: Tim | 4/17/09 What I hear when I here this song is suicide. The protagonist is waking up and looks toward his day's plan of ending his life - 'Today.. we escape' When he talks of getting away without being heard, he is referring to how no one can know what he and who is talking to are doing today as they will try to stop them. The part about breathing is sitting in a car with the exhaust through the window. The protagonist is giving the recipient confort as they slip away. But they are both stil fearful - hence the suicide pact - "Breathe... keep breathing. I can't do this.. alone." He then asks his partner or maybe himself to sing as they slip away into darkness - "Sing us a song. There's such a chill" He then talks to those who would be appose to their choice to end their life. The refrain at the end seems sinister but the melody makes it somewhat beautiful. It is a message to the suicidal listener. He and his partner hope you don't have to suffer the indignity of suicide. They hope that you choke and therefore do no hurt your loved ones with your choice. Far from being sinister it's actually quite loving. I know this probably wasnt the intention of the song and that it reflects romeo and juliet. But I'm sure Yorke was aware of these undertones that he was emitting. Him being him! It can mean anything | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/19/09 I think even though the song relates to the movie almost perfectly, Thom Yorke has written to fit a lot of different situations as well. The reason why it is such a beautiful and haunting song its generic in its meaning yet still so personal. This is a song of revenge, anger and frustration. | Reviewer: Matix | 2/23/09 This is a hymn to unhappiness. It can be interpretted in any way you want as long as you are feeling miserable. Unhappiness is part of life this is a melodic and harmonic testimony of its existance. One of my two favorite songs... In my opinion | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/31/08 I was listening to this song & I just came out of a relationship with a worst breakup anyone could imagine.. I'm feelin down & angry.. this song really spoke to me . the part where it says "Breathe... keep breathing Don't lose.. your nerve. Breathe... keep breathing I can't do this.. alone." anyone can relate this to their own problem but at the end where he sings " that you choke".. thats exactly how I want my ex to feel. Thom Yorke is a genius .. Why are people confused about what this song is about?? | Reviewer: Amanda | 12/8/08 V1 (He is singing to a girl about getting out of a situation) V2 (Obvious disapproval from the parentals) V3 (He is telling her to stay strong, and what every they are doing to get out of the situation they are doing it together) v4 ("such a chill" going cold, dying) V5 He sings to another party, could be parents, could be society, either way a party that he thinks is fake and has power "Now we are one In everlasting peace"...shows that the other party didn't want them together, but now they are one in death. V5 they hope they "choke" on their own rules and wisdom. In other words realize they were wrong...foot in mouth type thing... Obvious it's about Romeo and Juliet and Thom is singing from Romeo's perspective... or that's my opinion...and it's called Exit music for a film and it was the exit music for the film R&J..sooo....yeh..it's not rocket science...they wrote this about the movie for the movie..
