| Tori Amos – Job's Coffin Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
"Job's Coffin" is a group of stars found in the constellation of Delphinus. It's quadrilateral shape represents the Coffin but why it it "Job's" coffin, I do not know. Night Of Hunters as an album referrs to stars a great deal (Seven Sisters is the name of yet another group of 7 stars). The meaning and story of the song itself, seems to find the female character learning that a man is not needed in order to accomplish ones desires. It's about finding the inner "fire" within yourself and emerging a stronger and more understanding person. The lyrics reflect the female character in Nigh Of Hunters being aided by the Fire Muse (I think) to break free from the mental constraints associated with the broken relationship. |

| Tori Amos – Carry Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Carry represents the end of the song cycle that is Night Of Hunters. The female character eventually learns that there are greater problems in life than those concerning love and relationships and accepts what has happened between her and the male character and manages to come to terms with it. She finds peace. Even though the shattering of the relationship hurt, The journey the female character has from dusk to dawn allows her to move on. There is no resentment of what happened. The male character is, is seems, no longer a part of her life physically, but will never be forgotten. |
