| The Low Anthem – This God Damn House Lyrics | 6 years ago |

@[ifitsthebeaches72410:29632] I always interpreted this song as being about the tension in relationships. She hopes he'll be there, rather than leave while she's out. Maybe the relationship is failing - the narrator feels trapped by the house, maybe the house is the relationship. And, to Tipple above, I've never thought of those lines as sexist, since they work equally if the narrator isn't male, and they're promptly followed and paralleled by the newspaper line, which has no gender connotation, IMO. I think they're more about, per my thoughts of relationship tension, how there's coldness where there should be warmth and nourishment. |
