| Manchester Orchestra – I Can Feel a Hot One Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I think this song is about a car crash. "I was in the front seat, shaking it out And I was asking if you felt alright I never want to hear the truth I want to hear your voice, it sounded fine My voice, it sounded fine" That's after the crash. He's in the front seat shaking off what just happened. He wants to hear her voice, and the line "I never want to hear the truth" implies he knows something is wrong, he just refuses to accept it. "I took it like a grown man crying on the pavement Hoping you would show your face But I haven't heard a thing you've said In at least a couple hundred days What'd you say?" He's sitting on the pavement grieving her death longing to see her walk out of the car. "To pray for what I thought were angels Ended up being ambulances And the Lord showed me dreams of my daughter She was crying inside your stomach" I'm guessing with that line he died as well. Now they're both together in "heaven" with god. And some more lines that fit in with the crash: "The blood was dry, it was sober" "For a moment, I could feel the force Fainted to the point of tears" "Manna is a hell of a drug And I need a little more, I think Because enough is never quite enough" |
