I'm with "engravement" on the opening line. Bipolar depression can manifest itself in periods of euphoria and clarity. I have also read that it can bring on a feeling of hyper-sexuality. Pretty much explains the first two lines. Even before I knew this or knew much about David Berman, I always instincitively felt the line "I was hospitalized for approaching perfection" referred to a mental/emotional crisis. The rest of the song is a very well-written poignant, abstract and poetic songchronicling the decline and demise of a relationship..... soaked in regret, questioning, and sadness. my cover of this song https://davidpsmithmusic.bandcamp.com/album/mantennae |
