| Joe Pug – Hymn #35 Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I feel this song is mostly about God, or at least a higher existence that exists in everything. It uses the principle that God is everywhere and nowhere at the same time. It has the good and the bad caused by God. Some of the lines that really stand out are "the unexpected harvest" as well as well as "sickness come to the best of folks." This shows the two opposite sides of how God can be both benevolent or malevolent. |

So I know sex and death are the two main viewpoints on this song. But if this isn't about having sex, and particularly having an orgasm, I don't know what is. Maybe it's Freud talking, but this song has sex written all over it. I feel it is particularly the first time having sex (1st in general or 1st with your love) then having it again later in the relationship. I feel the lyrics are about reaching that moment that transcends all describable feelings and sensations. "We're staring at the sun Oh my own voice Cannot save me now Standing in the sea It's just One more breath And then I'll go down" ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I take it as the reservations and nervousness of it being the first time? "Your mouth is open wide <--her facial expression from sex The lover is inside <-- penetration And the tumult's done <--that point right before orgasm Collided with the sign <--i always thought it was "sun" not "sign" which would be the indescribable feeling of having an orgasm You're staring at the sun <--facial expression You're standing in the sea <--physical feeling as well as from sweat Your body's over me" <--physical description Note the trees because the Dirt is temporary More to mine than fact, face, Name, and monetary ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I can't really link this other than talking to your lover and talking about how troubles are temporary and name and money are meaningless? Beat the skins and let the <-- code for sex Loose lips kiss you clean <-- foreplay or vag lips Quietly pour out like light <-- not sure Like light, like answering (chorus comes over this part) the sun You're staring at the sun <-- already said You're standing in the sea <-- already said Your mouth is open wide <-- already said You're trying hard to breath <-- just some heavy breathing The water's at your neck <-- the buildup to an orgasm There's lightning in your teeth <-- another indescribable feeling/sensation Your body's over me <-- already said Again, I could be dead wrong and just come off as a huge perv right now, but that's my take on it. |

| The Tallest Man on Earth – Walk the Line Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
So I could be completely wrong, but I feel this relates to the fall of an angel? Maybe the most famous of them? If you read Paradise Lost, he really becomes personified as a tragic fall rather than merely being a purely evil creature. The "I ain't gonna walk the line" referring to disobeying God? Followed of course by the "Please, don't shoot me down" then the falling and defeat and stubbornness of "I ain't gonna walk the line." |
