| Modest Mouse – Satin in a Coffin Lyrics | 14 years ago |

The songs about inner demons, in his case heavy drug usage. I think he actually means satan, but he said satin to make it more accessible and not scare people away. "You were laying on the carpet Like you're satin in a coffin You said, "Do you believe what you're saying?" Yeah, right now, but not that often Are you dead or are you sleeping? Are you dead or are you sleeping? Are you dead or are you sleeping? God, I sure hope you are dead" He's put the addiction behind him, and hopes it won't come back. "Well, you disappeared so often Like you dissolved into coffee Are you here right now or are there Probably fossils under your meat?" Only part I can't figure out "Now the blow's been softened" It's less painful, and he feels less guilty because of all the sin in the world(not in a traditional sense) "Since the air we breathe's our coffin Well, now the blow's been softened Since the ocean is our coffin" Are sin is in the environment "Often times you know our laughter Is our coffin ever after" Laughter often hides guilt "And you know the blow's been softened Since the world is our coffin And now the blow's been softened Since we are our own damn coffins" Are bodies are our coffins from drugs and junk food and shit like that. "Well, everybody's talking about their short lists Everybody's talking about death!" People are focusing on temporary happiness, like drugs and sex, things that can often cause you to die. |
