|
its about a man who broke up with a woman, and she's with another dude, but he's wishing her the best obviously in the festive season, i think thats a trigger for this song - as in that season you wish to be with your loved ones he hates her for them not being together, but he still loves her and he is caught between the two feelings "i miss your manic scratching, and your howling at the moon" best lyric,, can't seem to get over it |

i think that it depicts two very true opinions that we have, and everyone sits on either side of the argument the first (the one which the woman holds) is that everyone else shouldn't concern us, that we need to live for us, think of it in a capitalist sence if you will then the narrator argues the point that we do need to care for other people, a socialist veiw you could compare i'm not saying that cave had a political agenda when writing this, but thats just how it comes across, he's just showing the two ways of living - whether you take notice of those around you, or if you do not the smile at the end, to me, is that the protagonist was just trying to hit a nerve with the woman, that his arguement was just to shit her |
