The telegraph cables hum And few can decipher who the message is from And deliver it quietly 'Cause some don't get much company The water didn't realize Wind-battered, knocked over. |

On The Reminder I think she sings: The telegraph cables hum And few can decipher who the message is from And deliver it quietly 'Cause some don't get much company I really love the sea/mountain images because of how dangerous and beautiful the two are together; they're really different but they create something striking I'm not sure it's about a relationship so much as the state of life: humans can be lonely and dangerous and desolate. We hope all that we can for our children but they'll spend their days wind-battered and knocked over with their heads folded into their shoulders, looking at the grey sky which is trying to act innocent, like a "good guy". |
