A Perfect Circle – The Nurse Who Loved Me (Failure cover) Lyrics 5 years ago
@[Lupi:34780] You're definitely overthinking this too. "apple of my eye" is an expression. It means something you cherish. The part about apples is obviously a play on words. I have no idea how you got an Adam and Eve reference out of that, or that the apples are somehow bad desires.

Also, the music being dreamy is just how APC made it. This is a cover of a grunge rock song from the 90s that definitely does not have a dreamy feel. So you can just throw all the stuff you said about them being like a child out the window.

I think this song is obviously about the Florence Nightingale effect where patients fall in love with their nurse, as well as addiction to painkillers.

And it seems like it's about someone in a mental institution too. The "shrinking in your head" is probably referencing psychiatry(shrinks), and having your face down on the rug is probably referencing being forcefully subdued.

I can't think of what the "I think you left me for the government" part could mean.
