@[angel10207:4760] Awesome response! :) Well it all just kind of happened perfectly when this song really touched my soul. The way the sounds and the lyrics meshed with the feeling of looking at all these pictures and memories of mine that spanned the years. Friendships came and went, girls stayed then left, people died and some were born. Basically the perfect ingredients for a song becoming one of your all time favorites :) Thanks for reminding me to listen and feel! :D |

The last verse Devendra sings "dress like girls dress like boys so give me that music instead". Can't find where it's from does anybody know? I'm assuming he just made it up. What an interesting and marvelous version of an already brilliant song by the way! Makes me feel like I'm smokin a rollie in a brazilian cafe somewhere off in dreamland. |

Holy mother of God. The fact there was 0 comments here doesn't surprise me. It is a testament to the utter innocence and simplicity of the song. The words are not childish, but child-LIKE. Absolutely enjoying the simple beauty of life. You can be literal and say it's from the perspective of a bird with the nest building. It's our job as humans to extrapolate that over our own existence. Build a home, build your life, out of string and grass, out of the simple things in life. Things like enjoying nature, laughing with friends, and skipping stones ;) The final verse is acknowledging that we all fuck up. We all get it wrong, and often. But those moments where we get it right. Oh, do we get it right. We don't even realize we're getting something right because we are so in the moment enjoying the beauty of life with each other. And those moments we get it right is what we build our lived out of. We build our homes from string and grass, from laughs and love. I just want this song played on every speaker in the world and to hold the nearest person next to me. Every human being in one great world-wide hug where we all come together. K now I'm getting romantic. God thank you Feist for sharing this beautiful moment every human strives for. Peace everyone. |

Wish you weren't being downvoted so heavily. I think you could very well be right. Brandon Flowers is mormon and probably finds a lot of inspiration from his religion, and I think it's foolish to automatically dismiss that maybe he could be singing about what you spoke of. |

Last time I saw them in April they played this song and I cried.
It was patience that we had, the miles we had left, that held us there until we could let go... |

| Aesop Rock – Water Lyrics
| 12 years ago

This is one of my favorite lines by Aesop, ever:
"And when science proposes to art besides that peace-full sea
I'll be that cat with a ring on a pillow shouting finally"
I think in his head he's saying he'll be the ring-bearer at the wedding because he'll be so excited that science and art are finally on the same page which is what humanity needs (to integrate and work together) that he'll have first row seating to the wedding.
But I prefer my own image and philosophy that this lyric conjures up in my head. Which is, by the time science and art become one he'll have already gotten married and moved on with his life. It didn't matter to him if it never happened, but of course there's always that side of you that wants to see humanity rise to a higher level. So I envision myself waking up in the morning on my pillow next to my wife. She tells me that science and art are finally married. "Finally" I say. But I say it in a chill way, I'm happy, but I didn't let the outcome of it all run my life. Like I said it didn't matter either way I as a person am not going to sit around waiting for something that might not ever happen. I'm going to get married (doesn't have to be marriage whatever you think life is all about) and live my life and not be dependent on 'what if's'...Does that make sense to anyone? Cause I fucking love that line. |

No idea what the hell exactly she is singing about. But I think people rush to this site when they first hear a song in hopes that someone else commented on the lyrics and figured it out for them on a logical level. When I listen to this song, and really feel it, that's all there is to it. I'm guilty of coming to this site to read what someone has wrote so I can say ok THAT'S how I feel...What he said! But this song just feeds my soul. Even though she sings, there are no words. Just feel what she has to say and notice the emotions that come up. Don't try to rationalize for once in your life. I just looked through all of my tagged pictures on facebook. Thousands of pictures that spans over 4 years. Listening to this song while tracing back the steps of my life...It all made sense. It made sense where I was, where I'm going, and where I'm at right now. I think that's the sign of a fucking great song. Enjoy and god bless your life. Whoever you are....I love you... |

Love the way MMJ ended the album with this one. This song really spoke to me as I have been going through a pretty rough break up for many months now. And although it's just my interpretation I can relate to this song really well because of what I've been going through personally with this girl. It starts with him realizing and accepting the fact that he just jumps into relationships and gets caught in romanticism and idealizing what isn't really there. But he does it for the romance! It's almost like a drug addict coming to grips with his addiction. He comes to terms with this while in a relationship with the woman. He realizes he was just ''under the influence'' and not being who he truly is. And he HAD to get out to find out who he really was without these types of attachments in his life. "I hope you'll be where my home is." This line really speaks to me. I pushed my ex away but at the same time I still wanted to be with her. Maybe he is saying he hopes you can forgive me or that I hope you keep in me in your heart so that one day we can get back together once I sort out my shit. "And though there's a new lifeline, I won't forget the one I left behind...A new life to create." He's finally moving on and isn't dependent on this relationship anymore but he will never forget the way in which it served him. When people break up there is so much bitterness but it takes many years for many people to come to the conclusion that they HAD to go through that shit to get to an even higher/more blissful state of awareness. Think about where you are now if you have a significant other. Do you look back on your exes with contempt or do you think, "gee, I'm really grateful I went through that so I could realize what I TRULY wanted...it taught me so much..." Every experience we go through is merely a teaching for the next lesson to be learned. I've had a couple brews so I'm probably rambling but I have listened to this song about 100 times in the last month and am absolutely taken aback by it. I hope you dug something I said and could relate if even slightly! Peace <3 |
