@[ChloeHowells:34092] This particular lyric in this song *guts* me when I hear it, and I like your interpretation. I miss her too, hard to believe it's nearly 9 years now... |

On the surface it sounds it's about a man who is counting down the time until he gets out of jail. There seems to be a darker sub-text, though, starting with the opening chorus: "I hope everyone missed you, you know they want you to stay". I think it's about a man who's in jail for domestic assault and is fantasizing about hurting the object of his 'affection'/obsession when he gets out. "Don't stop to do what you're thinking, you're just wasting your time." sounds like a threat. |

This, to me, is a 'call and response' song - It's Alicia's prayer, and God's response and promise that He will be there. I always find comfort and empowerment in this when I hear it. <3 |

I think this song is about the genocide of the native peoples of the Americas. Very deep, very moving and it's rare if I don't cry when I sing this song. |

I always thought this was about a Vietnam vet who suffered from PTSD and eventually succumbed to madness.
The best version of this is on "Live At The Old Waldof', IMHO. |
