I'd have to agree with a lot of what you said. I think that you've got a lot of the right ideas pinned down. This song is loaded with drug references that can be easily misinterpreted. The only thing I don't get is the identical twins bit, but I am leaning towards what danyule said because Conor has made the reference to being with women/a woman whom had two different personalities (i.e. in "ten women"). |

now that i've listened to it a few more times full blast, i'd actually have to take back that last comment. it does, in fact, sound like "my sweet". :) |

i agree with all these comments. this is my favorite song on the album, and i was immediately hooked the first time i heard it. i also have a hard time not considering each individual track a song of the musician who obviously wrote it to begin with. i'm trying to curb that and experience monsters of folk as a whole band, not a group of my favorite musicians just guest starring on each other's songs. now to contradict what i just said, this is obviously another beautiful m. ward song. :) |

while it's definitely "bodhi" tree, i'm not 100% sure it's "you, my sweet", although that was my initial reaction. when i listen to it with my speakers on full blast, i hear "you must sweep", and i must say, that actually makes sense if you put the reference into context. however, it also does sound like "my sweet". *shrugs* |
