| Tunng – Bullets Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song is about looking for answers and not finding them but also, similar to what songyone said, being happy at how much depth is in each of your problems ("we're happy then again we're not"). "Catching bullets" is about how things, literally, get thrown your way and you have to find out how to deal with them. "We're catching bullets in our teeth Its hard to do but they're so sweet" We have all of these problems (bullets) but they make us feel important, responsible, or special (sweet). "We cut our fingers off To give ourselves those little extra insights" Looking to pain to give him an insight. "You whisper prayers into the dark Up to a god in whom you've never believed You always do You split the secret up six ways But it won't make it any easier to see" Looking to religion. "It's strange to find such light In such endless night" Although your sitation is so problematic, you're still somewhat glad that you can take it upon yourself. "And now we don't remember" The process will start all over again because a new problem is coming your way. It's a classic bittersweet song. You want to hate yourself for enjoying these bad things but you can't help but feeling a little proud. |
