| Vance Joy – From Afar Lyrics

This song could be about his feelings for one of his girl friends.. someone who he shares a platonic relationship with but wants something more. He wants this sort of romantic relationship but feels as though these feelings are misplaced ("that's just not the way that friends behave"). He loves this girl but if her love was food, he'd be starving. Repeating to himself that they're just friends is his own mind trying to beat these feelings out of him.. he always "knew he'd love [her] from afar" and that "will be the way that [they] remain." Beautiful song |

they honestly get better & better with each album!
this isn't my favorite track (probably's a tie between June Hymn & Don't Carry it All so far) but it just kills me with its simplicity! i think bc they know it's such a simple concept; the idiocracy and sometimes mindlessness behind violence, that they didn't fuss with complicated arrangement. also, the way he easily just summons war, avarice & hell throughout.. i think its a jab at how willing we are to resort to such lows and how easy it has become to reach them. the message is so important that i wouldn't even mind if it was cut down to just 10 words against a single drum. they drew me in with the lyrics with this song, everything else is just gravy. |
