| Bill Callahan – A Man Needs a Woman or a Man to Be a Man Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
To me it's more about withstanding loneliness and the ecstatic joy of love.
"The man needs a man" is more about the need to express yourself in front of the others.
The woman is gone but the man still loves her and for him the world is shining and sparkling and full of magic. This is where all those fireworks, lions, bears spiders and dragons come from.

Both feelings are blessed: feeling free - like on the water being driven by waves - and memory about the one you care. |

This is when you lose control. Your mind is gone and even the flesh is bare because the skin is gone |

| Pixies – Broken Face Lyrics

|
|
"I got no lips, I got no tongue" is the feeling when you cannot put into words everything which is on your mind. You cannot do it because words lie. And also you cannot do it because you may not. The feeling is strong and it is burning inside of you and every word that you say is just a "spit" |

This is a cry for someone who has passed away. The father, for example... We could share with him something we cannot tell anybody and at the moment when it hurts - "the sun is burning in the deepest space" - through the storm we call him... Clearly there is no reply - "my words get blown away" - but we cherish a thought that he can still hear us. |
