| Soul Coughing – Soundtrack To Mary Lyrics | 13 years ago |

It's definitely a love song. In my opinion, it's about a love that's gone but he can't stop thinking about it. I think of the lyrics in the first verse as "all my time, yea... dirt on your hands". As if to say "all the time that we spent together (my time) was a waste... a crime committed by you(dirt on your hands)" In the bridge section, the lyrics should be "I know the sound that you made, and I can't seem to 'un-remind' myself" Here, i think he's constantly remembering things about her, and though he may try to stop, he can't stop remembering. As for the chorus, I feel like he's saying that Fall (as in the season) is the soundtrack to Mary (or his relationship with this Mary character). I may be biased here though. Fall is my favorite season and always brings with it a heap of melancholic nostalgia. I had also dated a girl named Mary for a long time. And fall season brings back memories of her. So ironically enough, Soundtrack to Mary is kinda my soundtrack to the fall season. Anyway, I'm probably biased, but there's my take. |
