Bat for Lashes – Pearl's Dream Lyrics 16 years ago
there's a place i must go
for my heart is a child
that stumbles lonely for the arms of the wild

I just finished reading The Scarlet Letter in a lit class, and I cannot help but think of Hester' daughter Pearl when I hear this song, especially these lines. In the novel, Pearl is very different from everyone in her Puritan community (good love town), and is often described as elfish and wild.

St. Vincent – Actor Out of Work Lyrics 16 years ago
i think this is a song about denial. she wants to think that she is independent (I can quit you) but eventually admits that she is indeed in love, but still won't fold completely by claiming the insanity of it all.
