Red House Painters – Medicine Bottle Lyrics 7 months ago
@[matrixmouse7:53863] although this post was made 22 years ago, it’s comforting believing that you will see this someday. This song is angelic and beautiful. I think the song is just the writer’s imagination. “Its all in my head she said” could be implying that he lives in his head all too much, inevitably making himself “depressed”. I think he becomes so stuck in his sorrow he kills himself. The last little bit “ its all in my head she read” could just be his suicide note. I think the girl was incapable of understanding he may have a chemical imbalance in his brain, leading him to be depressed without reasoning. She thought she could “fix” him, they fell inlove, then she left because he is a wreck of emotions she can not deal with, I know that I am going back and forth in this, im just putting myself in his shoes.

Also, he says “i may wake to a knife in me” and “blood dripping from the bed” prompting the fact that SHE killed him. he mentions a poem after this, maybe telling us that she wrote a note trying to frame his depression for taking his life.
