| C-Clamp – In Tow Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
What is so painful to wake up to? Why does there seem to be no substance? The only real clue is in the last line: "There's difference in what's lost and the face that comes together." Whomever belongs to the face, I can't help but wonder if it speaks to those times when you are looking back at a recently lost love - you know there were very good reasons for what was lost, but the face that comes together in your mind is only of the good aspects, and we torture ourselves in this way. |

| C-Clamp – Taste of Metal Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
As trite as it sounds, this song makes a very good metaphor for heroine use, or perhaps being confined to a hospital bed on a rainy morning, waiting for the next shot of some relaxant. "Confuse me sun, and I won't mind expecting what the taste of metal brings" can refer to someone who wishes to be distracted from worrying over what to expect from the injection. I like to imagine the "Longer Waves" as a heart rate monitor. When one is calm or sedated, the monitor shows languid, long waves. "Just wait..." sounds like one is waiting to feel the slow down of a depressant or opiate. "Fight stillness, brings me too close, heavy with ache, heavy with time and sleep and the last dose" sounds like one is languid and 'heavy' from the last dose of a drug. One can be scared that their sedation is creeping too close to death, or stillness. |
