Song MeaningInteresting opinions about the meaning. I personally see it (because of the video) that.one. of the meanings of the song is related to the deep, dark thoughts and fears in the recesses of our minds. Those disturbing thoughts that can creep up out of seemingly nowhere and really torment a person; in extreme cases to taking reckless or dangerous actions.

Mostly though we all have such thoughts that might come up in the nights for example and rob us of our peace and comfort. Taking it all more metaphorically it's about both possession and also controlling oneself.
We're in the city of wonder Ain't gonna play nice Watch out, you might just go under Better think twice (better think twice) Your train of thought will be altered So if you must falter be wise (if you must falter be wise) Your mind is in disturbia It's like the darkness is the light Disturbia Am I scaring you tonight? Living For The City Stevie Wonder lyrics sheet. Visits (Day/Week/Month): 0 - 1 - 2; Language: EN; Album: Innervisions; Translation: Living For The City.
It's about those disturbing ideas that we think we'd like to act upon, and also about rational and irrational fears that possess us. General Commentmy take on this song is kinda different.-'What's wrong with me?Why do I feel like this?I'm going crazy now'^ she took some sort of drug. No more gas in the rigCan't even get it started'^ she wants to escape or stop from what shes doing, but she cant. Her 'car' cant start because it has no gas.'
From all the meaning explainations I've read by now (which I really enjoyed), I think this must be what the song really means! You seem to be right about the 'misspelling words', since the song makes A LOT more sense this way. It explains everything!
It's so satisfying to see various meanings of one song though, so then you can listen to it in many cases as it can fit in many situations. Oh, I think this one also explains the 'Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum' which pictures her being a senselessly delirious, if that makes any sense xD Yup. My English suck xP. When I first heard it, that is exactly what I thought.
I also struggle with bipolar disorder and when you are out of control, this is what it feels like. Only people who have bipolar disorder can understand what its like and I related to the song in that way as well.I'd like to know if Rihanna wrote the song or if someone else wrote it and what their intention was myself. I truly think that a person that goes through this wrote it because I can't see how anyone could be so in depth with what happens to you could write it.
I mean that other person who wrote about government and conspiracy theory could be correct, but I take it more literal. But then again, I'm biased. Close.but no!!
General CommentSorry this is long. It's worth reading. I promise you.I'm SURE this is it. Sleep paralysis. You guys have suggested insanity/panic attack. Sleep paralysis is when the mind is half asleep and half awake. You can see all the dream image but you are still awake.
Here, I'll explain my view of the lyrics-Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum (What's wrong with me?)Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum (Why do I feel like this?)Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum (I'm going crazy now)Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bumNo more gas in the rigCan't even get it started(You can't move at all in sleep paralysis, SP from now on. Your body is completely paralyzed.)Nothing heard, nothing saidCan't even speak about it(Because you can't move in SP you can't speak. Your mind may also block out noises so you don't hear any 'real' sounds.)All my life on my headDon't want to think about itFeels like I'm going insane(After SP you feel crazy and whatnot, wondering why all this happened.)YeahIt's a thief in the nightTo come and grab you(This is what got me. Most people report a presence in the room. It's mostly evil.

To some people it's the grim reaper or devils, to others it's thieves/rapists/murderers)It can creep up inside youAnd consume youA disease of the mindIt can control youIt's too close for comfort(It's really creepy. General CommentWell I am trying to get out of a relationship with a man who is Bi polar, delusional, seemingly schitzo, and this song fits the situation and my mind frame perfectly.His obsession with me, and my caring for him which has turned into an obsession, all came out and took over my life, like a thief in the night. My life was turned upside down.
He is passionate, intense, paranoid, and downright scary and violent sometimes. The things I have been through in the past week are worse than things I have seen in movies.It's like a drug, and I am going crazy. I am changing and scaring myself.

My mind is in disturbia. The worst part is knowing something must be wrong with me to connect so tightly to someone like him.
I am scary, like a monster!I think the song is about falling in love with a pyschopath, and losing your mind trying to get out.
