| Mumford & Sons – The Cave Lyrics | 15 years ago |

I get the allegory of the cave, but I think there is more to it then that. St peter was crucified upside down per his request, He wanted to go out like he came in to the world, (Normal child birth the head being the opposite of the mothers), hence walking finally right side up in to your maker's land. I believe the song to be about a destruct relationship, the relationship is over and the narrativor is trying to prevent the other from offing themselves. The subject sucked all they could from the relationship and now the narrator left, and the subject is despondent and Mt. The narrator is trying to prevent the unpreventable, but knows even after pain and tears of them offing themselves they will be better off. Both of them. |
