Mojave 3 – Battle of the Broken Hearts Lyrics 13 years ago
The "inaudible part" sounds to me like, "inside", or, "it's sad."

Voxtrot – Mothers, Sisters, Daughters & Wives Lyrics 13 years ago
Beautiful song. Though, he sounds a little co-dependent / in denial to me. Move on, brother. You can't predict how someone will be in the future.

Shearwater – La Dame et la Licorne Lyrics 18 years ago
I really have a strong feeling that this song isn't meant to be taken as literal events. To me it is intensely psychological symbolism.

The version I have (from the 2006 Palo Santo CD) has this lyric right after "on the roads and the fences":

my head is on fire
my body's disturbed

It also omits the lyric: "to the enemy lines".

It seems to me to be more about a tortured person trying his all to feel love, but failing. The fourth verse particularly shows this.

Other songs on the CD also express this kind of gentle, passive, frustration with a woman or lover and attempting to love her. Hail Maiy is a good example.

So very powerful.
