| Alela Diane – Dry Grass and Shadows Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Beautiful piece, really captures the half-dream state of lying in bed. Riffing on images from a lover's teeth is so creative, really makes the song. | |

Great postings above -- gives a lot of depth to a song I already loved. Any thoughts on how this line fits in? "There is nothing natural in nature my boy." Maybe that the world is so full of contrivances (nothing natural) that it takes effort to step back, perceive things in simplicity, enjoy the present? |

I figure "take me along when you slide on down" meaning she will get older ("going downhill," as in aging), and he hopes she'd consider him once she's no longer relatively young. And sole/soul survivor I think is a 3-way pun: the SS group (as mentioned by others), someone old enough to have live through (survived) the age of soul (Aretha Franklin), and sole survivor, emphasizes his feeling out of place, like he's the only (sole) oldster at the party. |

| wonderful images about starting over, "amputation" of the past, even assuming new identity. Amazing melody, production and structure, too. | |
