I tend to think the "sleeping uneven" bit is about sleeping in a hospital chair next to her bed. |

| Andrew Bird – Armchairs Lyrics
| 15 years ago

To me this song is about something that came to a sad end. Something that, with the passing of time and silence and peace is reborn. It reminds me of a relationship that ends, but the two people were "meant to be." And they went their separate ways but after the passing of 55 and 3/8ths years, they meet again. "The dark and empty rooms were full of incandescent hands" to me refers to clocks on a wall with light up hands, leading into the much debated line "time's a crooked bow" because when you look at a clock, most of the time, it looks like a crooked bow. I thing it's more or less a simple metaphor for time- lots of it- passing.
That's just what it means to me. I have no idea what is meant by the "epoxy and a pair of pliers." Maybe fixing what was broken? Straightening out time? Doesn't really matter I suppose. |

Drugs? The Lips' music is good for tripping on because of all the layers and sounds. But the lyrics to this song is about human love. Period. Of COURSE that means something different when you trip balls. |
