| Sugartooth – Sound of Her Laughter Lyrics | 4 years ago |

This song helped me through a very dark phase of my life as I could exactly identify myself with the lyrics word by word. In addition I love melancholic music like Katatonia etc. One nice thing about the track is that the picking and chords are not too difficult to play, so that they can be learned within a few minutes on your acoustic guitar. But now to the meaning. Hearing "her laughter" behind the doorway is extremely agonising when you are completely depressed and your ex-partner on the other hand is having fun. In such a moment you wish you could simply disintegrate or "fly away" to be a bit more happy. The chorus intensifies the fact the suffering goes on and on. "Beyond these four walls, the children running" is a cheerful thought when children are playing. "I open my arms, embracing nothing" But there is no child to embrace, as she took them away from me. "In my daydream, the morning's so cold" could mean that waking up in the morning and no one's there, is a creepy cold feeling of emptiness. "Smoke is clearing, got a lungful" Getting high can 'eventually' clear your thoughts. Well that's it, these were my two cents. Oh, by the way, one year later the bitch was gone and I had the kids, so everything turned out OK in the end. |

@[CptAlpha:37994] Great interpretation Cap ! Mostly everything you wrote makes absolutely sense. There's one little thing I would like to add though. "But I went stompin' all over your head" obviously means that he treated his partner badly. "Like a bull in a china shop" just means really, really badly and has not really anything to do with the aircraft. Don't you think ? Unfortunately I can identify myself with the lyrics which makes the song even sadder . . . but just for me. Watch and Chance must have been the band's summit, at least in my eyes. It was the first "real" music that I was listening to at the age of 7 and 9. English not being my native language, I didn't grasp a word at that time, but I devoured the music. |
