CHVRCHES – The Mother We Share Lyrics 5 years ago
@[2tonbackpack:29073] This is pretty much exactly the interpretation that was starting to germinate in my brain. The part about omens makes me think of genetic markers or other events that may have portended the mother's poor health or descent into something like alcoholism; the omens also make me think of the implications of alcoholism, other substance abuse problems, or mental health for offspring and the way a mother's struggles could (but hopefully aren't) a predictor for the two sisters.

My interpretation is colored by a more positive sibling relationship where my sister and I are support systems for each other, and in that sense "[she] can make it easy on me" even though "the way" (perhaps the life long struggle to cope with this) "is long."

Sorry that this reply is about five years after your initial post, but thanks for sharing!
