| Mazzy Star – All Your Sisters Lyrics

I think it's about knowing a person is your soul mate or twin flame but they don't realize it, yet. You wish they would be more receptive to that emptiness, you too, feel, and in the song the girl has determination. She is willing to be burnt and the devil may not want them to fill that emptiness, but she knows it has to happen and her persistence will surprise him, the devil. I think the sisters may be those who are jealous of the dynamics of the singer and the one she sings of, they too want to fill that void, but they see her and know that these two are written in the stars. God,this is amazing song. No, I am not high, but I occasionally enjoy some Mary jane. ;-) |

This song is my favorite song. Songs stick with you that mean something and this is a master piece. To me music is the best way to express passionate feelings and this song to me captures my raw sorrow that I hide away. I love how open the music, lyrics and singer are about expressing this. To me it is about life, how you desperately want something, but you feel like you are not worthy or that you cannot. and you are expressing that sorrow in a angry way. The smash her toe nails part... because of her lack of emotion/desire/belief for you that you have for her, life is a slap in the face and the day dreams are agonizing because dreamers cannot stop dreaming because they don't feel they have the means to step into the reality of their dreams/desires. Will life begin and end with waiting? The passion turns into depression, but you still hope and keep dreaming and the pain is always fresh. I am not satisfied with this day to day mundane life. I want more, I want to feel alive and want to be free and unhibited. I want to experience deep passion not just feel it with no release. I want to feast my senses with adventures to beautiful places and I want to explore what I am capable of, because I really do believe I am. Does anyone but a few get their happily ever after? |

This seems like a unhealthy relationship cycle, the singer seems to be talking about their significant other who they always have to lift up, they are getting heavy and he feels like he is sinking and cannot handle the weight of relationship anymore. But it is so hard to leave, all though it is making him emotionally vacant and his desire is the "double" he sees. he sees the good in this person he sees that, but he also desires a healthy relationship, the desire is the double he sees. He could have the love but without the swamp, from someone else. He keeps telling himself this is the last time. It is just a cycle though! It takes a lot out him, leaving him unhappy. He won't talk to those people that were close to him about the relationship and seeks comfort from a stranger because perhaps he knows what the close ones would say about his relationship. "I wish everybody knew
What's so great about you". |

I love this song. The emotion feels raw behind the words and music. I've listen to this since I was a teenager battling depression and low self esteem. To me :) it's about a person who can never measure up. He feels guilty for his weakness (sounds like drugs) he feels alone all though he's surrounded. Sounds like a childhood of being in a legalistic family. He feels weak and helpless, he wasn't giving any affirmation, he doesn't feel he's ready for the harshness of the world. It seems like everything is important to his father but his son and he knows it, his father is hard on him and beats him down- is critical and doesn't see his own flaws. It sounds like my father. It sounds like the singer feels worthless and not important, unheard. A pleaser, but never loved. I'm not for sure who he is saying he misses and loves. Maybe it's his father, maybe his father is battling addictions or is abuser and he (the father) is the wave. He feels unprotected in his own home. His father has just excuses, maybe. Maybe he misses his mother. Or maybe he is singing about a lost love, maybe that lost love is of himself (altering drugs) or it is a lost love of a women... and he feels the way he is now cannot measure up to his family, himself or maybe to her. He cannot get out of a pit he dug. I really think it's about being beat down and having a really glum look on life. Trying to escape, but not being able to. |
