| honestly, i think this song is more about abuse. speak to me low? thats kind of like speaking 'down' to someone. low...down. yea. most abusive relationships involve the abuser telling the victim what to wear, how to act, who to be...aka 'Tell me things you want me to know.' the narrator stays with the person to cling to how it used to be. how they used to love her. the narrators at a crossroads. shes in love, but shes scared of her love. shes scared of him coming home and hitting her, abusing her, etc. so she hangs out the window and her final decision seems friendly, nice, peaceful to her. she imagines him coming home and finding the body and being upset because now he has to deal with the body. but everything will be ok because now he cant hurt her. | |

Every single piano i've ever met in my life never sounded as good as melted Casio keys burning in a sea that sings out in 3-D. direct references to this painting by salvador dahli: http://www.colorado.edu/Sewall/kit/Atmospheric%20Shull%20Sodomizing%20a%20Grand%20Piano%20(Salvador%20Dali).jpg |

| i think the first few phrases before the "shake your..." part are references to movies, literature, and music...aka culture. then i also think it might be saying that we rely a lot on technology and become part of it, but then at night we dream and thats the difference bcuz machines cant dream....or feel....theyre not human. when its saying the skies collapsed and the suns been sold i think its saying how like even nature has been caught up in the technological world where everything has an owner, nothings free, everythings commercial. so during the "shake your..." part its saying rid urself of it. | |

"Cursing at the dawn like an adulterous priest." this is a reference to The Scarlet Letter. there's a scene where Reverend Dimmesdale goes up on the scaffold that Hester, the married woman he impregnated, was made to stand and be humiliated for her sin. he goes up and confesses his sin to the heavens and tries to redeem himself. he goes slightly mad in this scene. |
