It sounds to me like the ending of a relationship. I can see he says what he means (I love you/wanna stay together) I can't say what he means when he says that I'll pretend a pretty pretend When all I wanna see is the end of this (She doesn't want to continue it/has mixed feelings) I can see he says what he means We'll deal him sticks and stones and apologies (All of those terrible things we say when hurt/then take back afterwards) I wish Oh, I wish it was through (Good god I just want out of this terrible fxcking relationship) Scrape the skies Get up off your knees Just lift the marks And new-found releases (Screwing herself up to end it finally) I'll pretend a pretty pretend When all I wanna see is the end of this (Perhaps waiting it out in hope that things will change) I wish I wish I wish the cobwebs would cover me Cover me Cover me (She feels teribble and guilty for wanting out) My vicious tongue Cradles just one (She's a strong woman, but not with him) |
