Frightened Rabbit – The Greys Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is about the hopeless depression one feels after being left by a lover.

This pain is magnified for the singer because of unbearable physical circumstances

Xiu Xiu – The Fox & The Rabbit Lyrics 17 years ago
Well this song has always come off from the point of view of someone who has been hurt by another through having hope, only to be let down.

I like people who are wrong
could you then feel like I do

He is aware that his hope is false rooted but cant help it

Collossus bestrides the haves and have nots
go softly this is being sung for you

this song is directed to a dominating person with quite a bit of influence over the singer who has gone back and fourth on their word before

wake up wake up
the wish you made is plucked
go out get up
you've done enough enough
wake up wake up
to take the time to cuss
go out get up
you've seen enough enough

this is the singer reasoning with himself telling him not to put faith in this person, about how its hopeless and he needs to stop letting them control him. he needs to check with reality but cant force himself to do so.

do you think that you deserve it?

questioning if this person is worthy of his trust.

I am waiting here for you
looking out across the brooke
my hands resting on my chest
but still I stare into the night

the singer is waiting for this person to change, to make everthing right as they had promised.
Nothing changes. this person is making no effort.

when the fox hears the rabbit cry
he comes running but not to help

When the singer talks to this other person the other person seems to care for him, but in reality it is not out of compassion but out of the sadistic joy of watching the amount of pain one can cause another


thats just what I always got from the song. I may be wrong but it makes sense to me
