For me, the song is about his love story: first he discovers love with this girl, and they often go and have fun 'down colorful hill', in a big house and a small bed (as he says in "Medicine Bottle"). They use to sit on the roof of the house swinging their feet, lifted by the wind, but then he already feels that there are gonna be some challenges ahead. He prays, and prays, and prays for a successful love, hoping it will last, but (I think I can hear him saying 'Prayers unheard, always die in time" or "Prayers answered always die in time), even if he hopes so, the possibilities of a long love are few. They keep going there and spend time together ('face to face sleeping'), but his love for her is fading away ('losing the dream'). He doesn't wonder about her anymore and he fears the changes coming, even if they were necessary. Here the music changes: the distorted guitar comes in and the drums start playing a very animated rhythm, signifying those changes. Then, his love stops, as the music sees a new melody growing now. 'Like empty roofs above Life for poor doves' They don't sit on the roof anymore, and now those roofs for poor and deceived 'doves' (he and her ex-love). 'Like empty roofs above Rid of our love' That's it: they don't love each other anymore. It ended, at last. I love this song and this album. My god, I love it soooooooooo much. |
