| Florence + the Machine – Never Let Me Go Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Has anyone read Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro? I can't help but draw parallels. “I keep thinking about this river somewhere, with the water moving really fast. And these two people in the water, trying to hold onto each other, holding on as hard as they can, but in the end it's just too much. The current's too strong. They've got to let go, drift apart. That's how it is with us." |

Such a cute, fun song aaah~ He's so in love and excited for their love, and protective of it and doesn't want to overdo it and have them lose steam fast. It's like he's already worried about it being over before it's really started... So cute how anxious he seems~ |

| The National – Fake Empire Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I never really took a deep look into this, I just instantly thought it was an adorable love song; when you're with your loved one you're in your own personal world, your own "fake empire," and the rest is just them being cute as fuck together <3 | |

I can see what doc7 thinks, but I've always thought of it in a different way. I think "You tried to taste me, And I taped my tongue to the southern tip of your body." describes the beginning of the sexual part of the relationship, and shortly after "Our bones are too heavy to come up, Squished into a single cell of wood." means something like "we're too tired to get out of bed; it's like we're a single entity." I don't think it has to relate to the last verse about old bodies; I think the instrumental is meant to show time passing, and that they [the "single cell of wood", now referred to as two pieces) have ~rubbed against each other~ so much that they're "whittled down," the old bodies thing could either refer to, yeah, they're older now but still together, or just, really fucked out? Excuse my terminology haha. And I think the sparks thing refers to how starting a fire with two really smooth pieces of wood takes a really long time, but they'll keep goin' at it, ~ow ow~ until they finally get it going. Which again could refer to, yeah they're older so it takes more time, or just keep ~going~ in general mmhmmmm. But yeah, I don't really think about old people at all during this song, despite the mention of "old bodies" haha |

I really like this one. And I'm guessing he's a fan of The Smiths. "There's a problem to my crisis it lasted 22 years, 7 months, and 7 days" Never Had No One Ever by The Smiths "I had a really bad dream It lasted 20 years, 7 months, and 27 days" |
