| Fleet Foxes – Icicle Tusk Lyrics | 14 years ago |

All wrong. Sorry guys. Icicle Tusk is the moon. The song is about a man who lost his sense of purpose and his subsequent loneliness after defeating his rival in a duel. The 'surveillance keeper' is merely the subject of his memories; his rival. The 'keyhole peeping' is just a metaphor in which the narrator describes the way he remembers the subject - peering through a window into the past. The event is romanticized by the narrator, with the moon being the most significant part of his memory. One of Fleet Foxes very best? I think so! |
