Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Living life, don't you cry. My life - pain is God.
Many nights, painful thoughts occur. Love me - again I'm wrong.
In denial I tried to be your friend. I tried to be a good boy.
All I see, a hate deep inside. Startle me, someone save me.
Now these memories
Still I hide
They bury me
All I want to do.... (you are not my real mother)
Is kill you.... (so I beat and stab and fuck her)
(x4)
Looking back I was never ever right. You were my step
mom who always wanted me out of your sight. I would come walkin' in and
I'd say, "Hello," but you'd slap me and make some fucked-up comment about
my clothes. But I tried to let it pass, but the pictures in my head were
with you with a knife up your ass laying dead. So I popped some more caps
in your ass. Now your son is such a fuck -- motherfucking bitch never try
to play me!
You make my life -- not so....
All I want to do....
Is kill you....
(x2)
All I want to do.... (you are not my real mother)
Is kill you.... (so I beat and stab and fuck her)
(x2)
Wish! You! Were dead! Now!
How.... I know
How can I cry over someone I never loved?
How can I cry over someone I never loved?
Never loved.... Never loved ....
Many nights, painful thoughts occur. Love me - again I'm wrong.
In denial I tried to be your friend. I tried to be a good boy.
All I see, a hate deep inside. Startle me, someone save me.
Now these memories
Still I hide
They bury me
All I want to do.... (you are not my real mother)
Is kill you.... (so I beat and stab and fuck her)
(x4)
Looking back I was never ever right. You were my step
mom who always wanted me out of your sight. I would come walkin' in and

How.... I know
How can I cry over someone I never loved?
How can I cry over someone I never loved?
Never loved.... Never loved ....

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
