| of Montreal – I Was a Landscape in Your Dream Lyrics

i may be not looking hard enough, but i don't see anything in the lyrics that suggests this is about a boyfriend/girlfriend or some sort of similar relationship.
i think this is about the urge to control, and its varying degrees of expression in different people. regardless of the degree that they're aware of it, people are always trying to alter the way that they are perceived through less-than-genuine behavior. who here hasn't laughed when someone told a bad joke, in order to not seem rude or uncool? laughing without really enjoying the positive emotions that go with it?
the image of a labyrinth reminds me of this complex maze of fabricated human culture that we all force ourselves and each other to navigate. laugh at that unfunny joke, and you're stuck having to remember to laugh at it every time its retold. it gets hard keeping track of all that shit that piles up, like a labyrinth. |

speed this song up about 60% and it turns into a mournful, funky progression supporting a nasty solo from deaner to boot. trippy, i'd like to know what the stanza means. |

| Ween – Did You See Me? Lyrics

nice big words.
i believe strongly that this song is about/inspired by/relating to a trip, and given the fact that this is ween we're talking about its always a distinct possibility. on such a trip, it is possible for one to feel indescribable connections with nature and the universe, to feel intimately linked to them. the tree, the sand and sea, the universe, flying, waving free, coming down... these feelings are profound, not easily explained to someone else in mere words, and as such must oftentimes be enjoyed by the beholder alone. they are asking "did you see me?" because they so badly want someone to share the experience with, knowing full well that the answer is probably "no." this is reflected in the angst with which the lyrics are sung.
not to mention that trippy-ass warbling sound that gets ridiculously intense; fuckin ill. |
