| James Blake – Unluck Lyrics

Again, this song is about being an only child, and perhaps James' resentment of that. Being an only child myself, I totally relate to this song in a way. I read "only child, take good care, I wouldn't like you playing, falling there" as perhaps his parents' protection of him and perhaps how he felt trapped as a child because of his parents being too overprotective of him. I see "treated walls" as a bubble of some sort, caging him in from other people and the dangers of the outside world. Who knows? Maybe I'm reading into this too much, but I just read Unluck as the fact that as an only child he's the only thing, so to speak, his parents have, so they'll do any thing to protect him from danger. |
