| Scattered Trees – A Conversation Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
so in love with this song and the scattered trees. my personal take on it is that it is about a break up. one of the lines that stands out to me the most is "you said i'll be there when you wake up from this dream, when you turn your life into a story". to me i take it as the other person thinks that the narrator isn't living life the way she see fit and she don't want any part of him until he change. but she still left that promise that she would be there once he does change. I love how he responds with "oh and i'll tell every ghost, everyone that i see, i'm waiting here i'm ready for you". It sounds like he did try to change and now thinks he is ready and wants her back. but the way the song ends i wonder if she ended up moving on, while he changed and kept his promise and she didn't. this song should bring a lot of hope, because so many people today strongly believe that people do not change. this song can always put a smile on my face. |

when he states "but god you mean more to me than any three hole punched fake scripture could come from me" i believe he is refrencing the songs that he writes "three hole punched fake scripture", and that God means more to him than any of songs he has written. i think this whole song is about how all the gigs and shows and thats are his ultimate goal in life still fall short unless he is are following where God leads him. |

oh and this line: "your hair is long but not long enough to reach home to me but your beard someday might be" i think it's really beautiful in saying that your hair or external looks wont get you anywhere but your beard or wisdom/internal being might get you there. well that's what i get from that line and it always helps me open my eyes a little. |

i think the music video for this song revels a lot my absolute favorite part in the video is the end when the woman is looking back at the castle on the side of the mountain. it's her looking back on her idealized memories of the house on the mountainside. and I love how it is being slowly destroyed by the solders. The upbeat ending of the song and that part of the video is amazing and makes me feel like a can conquer anything from the past. I also love how the mans point of view is portrayed in the video as well. He goes back to the house or the memories of the past and he burns them down himself but he has to escape into the sea to clear his mind to find peace that only the Lord can give. |

i think he says "i lost kim, when i went" he did write a song called kim so its possible and makes more since. the first line of the chorus These rumours are leaving its "These rumors of leaving" and the (?) is holding. "Like some dead weights holding you back" thanks for putting these up love. |

heres my personal take. i think you all had parts of it that were somewhat close. she starts out referencing a recent break up. "see how close i can get to keep my socks from getting wet" she wants to still be friends but doesn't know how close she can really get to him with out it hurting. "parade me around, don't let me let you down" sounds like she is constantly reflecting on the past relationship. and "i've got dirt on my shoes, tell me what i'm gunna do" sounds like he likes to bring up flaws she had in the relationship as well. "give my beat box a squeeze, bring me back to life, get me off of my feet" sounds like she is asking for someone to help her out. get her out of the rut she is in because she can't stop all this up and down emotions. And the next part would make sense. "give me a reason, send me a postcard, tell me a story, why are you so far" she goes from questioning why, to seeming as if she doesn't care she just wants to hear from him, to she wants a story about him, a deeper connection, to a confession of missing him. Then the "cramming for nothing, i'm pushing on buttons" seems as if she keeps trying to solve why they broke up. "tell me why, you're fooling no one" is my favorite line! it's like she is pissed off at him and wants to just tell him that he can't pretend that he didn't really love her. he can't pretend that he didn't care and he can't pretend like he didn't hurt her. he's not fooling anyone cause everyone was there to see it happen. then the next part is my favorite too! "crawl out the window, make my way down the brick wall, you don't have to be there, to catch me I won't fall" that is pure genius. when ever you get hurt you build a brick wall a mile high and she is saying she is trying to escape and take down any walls she put up. and by doing that she realizes that she can conquer anything without him. she doesn't need him any more. and then i love so much how this song is so honest. right after she says she climbed down her brick wall she says "now i'm sleepwalking, but fooling no one" and then she explains that by saying "hang in the alley, take cat naps from now on" she really hasn't gotten over him and she is thinking about him often but she keeps it to herself, hanging in alleys where no one is around. But saying she's fooling no one, even though she thinks its deep inside her she knows it shows. and she finishes with "sleep for days don't ever change" she is talking to herself, how she is saying in this constant sleep of never getting over him, never changing. "you'll be here in the morning, just to hear me say" it stops with that because the song starts all over again. the story never ends because she keeps going through that cycle. the next morning she and everyone else that she keep referring to will hear her do it all over again. |
