"Unintended" is the fifth single by English alternative rock band Muse, and the fifth and final original from their debut album, Showbiz. It was released on 7" vinyl—backed with a live version of "Sober"—, double CD—backed with "Recess", a live acoustic version of "Falling Down", "Nishe" and a live acoustic version of "Hate This & I'll Love You"—and cassette—backed with "Recess"—on 30 May 2000 and reached number 20 in the UK Singles Chart—an improvement of 2 positions on "Sunburn" and the highest of all the singles from the album.
The song was also featured on Trigger Happy TV during a skit in which a man, dressed in a snail suit, lay down on his stomach and inched across a street and also in another skit inside a cinema where many men dressed in tall wigs walk into the front row thus blocking the views of the audience behind them.
The lyrics tell the story of a person coming out of depression because they have recently found happiness from love, and they now wish to see their life through to the end.[citation needed]
Wish you'd stayed the night last night,
Woke up wanting to hold you tight.
Always want but just can't be, you're all that I see.
And you take my breath away, never thought I'd feel this way.
But there's nothing left to say, I'll have to wait another day.
Had a vision, Unintended.
Their thoughts running through my head.
Fairy tales that never ended,
Hearing words I thought you said.
You smiled when I brought you here,
Whispered sweet nothings in my ear.
And what was it that you said,
As you slipped into my bed?
Never told me why you came,
Was I just another game?
Things won't ever be the same,
I'll never love again.
Had a vision, Unintended.
Their thoughts running through my head.
Fairy tales that never ended,
Hearing words I thought you said.
Had a vision, Unintended.
Their thoughts running through my head.
Fairy tales that never ended,
Hearing words I thought you said.
Hearing words I thought you said
Words I thought you said.
Thought you said.
Thougth you said.
Thought you said.
You said.
Their thoughts running.
Had a vision, Unintended.
Their thoughts running through my head.
Fairy tales that never ended,
Hearing words I thought you said.
Had a vision, Unintended.
Their thoughts running through my head.
Fairy tales that never ended,
