Fever Ray – Stranger Than Kindness (Nick Cave cover) Lyrics 11 years ago
It's about sex, the song suggests that sex is 'stranger than kindness'

kindness is strange because its other people doing nice things for you for no personal gain what so ever which if you have trouble trusting others can seem like a very strange action

sex is strange like kindness its again people giving themselves up to others she cant imagine someone would offer their body to her hence making the experience strange like kindness

Fever Ray – Concrete Walls Lyrics 11 years ago
I think this song is about parenting a child especially from a mother's perspective

" I live between concrete walls, when I took her up she was so warm"
She lives between concrete walls because when trying to care for a child it can often feel like you are on your own especially if youre a new mother, the baby is obviously the warm thing she picks up

"eyes open the mouth cries, haven't slept since summer
The baby wont go to sleep and keeps crying, she hasn't slept since summer is an exaggeration cause thats what it feels like because she cant get her baby to fall asleep

"Oh how I try I keep the tv on and the radio"
She's desperately trying to get her baby to sleep even leaving the tv and radio on which are methods known to soothe babies and help them sleep
