| The Weakerthans – Plea from a Cat Named Virtute Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
This song is hard for me, cos I feel like the owner of the cat, but I love what I'm hearing from the cat. This cat's voice in a song makes more sense to me than the people that try talking to me. But I also don't want to give up this wallowing. I sleep a lot, I barely eat...but then I remember The 'thans' Aside: "I'm unconsoled, I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be."
I love this cat named Virtue and I want him to keep talking to me, but I can't just 180 my life, deny how I feel and my inclinations. But maybe, just maybe he can inch me there, one degree at a time. |

There's so much he wants to share, but he feels shut off and ignored from the world, and it's making him weary. There's that one girl that truly matters and he sees her everywhere because she's the bright point to his weariness. There's the irony of the hands, with a slight feeling of helplessness. Time goes on mercilessly, causes come and go. He's totally devoted to her but doesn't know how to tell her. The pamphlets are him, just trying to share with the world, with her, but he can't quite express himself well enough to convey what he needs to, and he fades, stuck where he is, but determined not to give up.

"Politics of Lonely"... Does anyone know what that is? Is it another witty line from Samson, or is it something concrete, like a book, or such?
Ever since this song, my friends and I randomly yell Yahtzee... |
