Christopher's River

For me, this is the best song for relaxing in summer.

"Our shadows softly on the grass, day would break we'd have out laughs, Our shirt tails in the wind..."

quite sunny day real estate.

when i listen to this i feel like im suffocating. cause i cant work out what it ,means. but i love it!

I saw them play it on an acoustic set in a Virgin store, 'twas rather good.

I love this song it's one of my favourite Biffy songs. I can;t figure out what it means though but it sounds as if it could be about him growing apart from someone or something like that.

Amazing song - it's my current choice to be played at my funeral. Hope that doesn't sound morbid, just something I've thought about.

This song makes me think of a father/son relationship. The singer is the son, and is dependant on the father to hold his 'head above the waves'.

'our shadows softly on the grass day would break we'd have our laughs our shirt-tails in the wind seems like yesterday my friend' This could be the son's fond memories of spending time with his father. The father is gone, perhaps passed away, and the son is feeling a great sense of loss- 'wish the sky would fall on me'.

Anyways, its a great song :o)

i think its about a friendship thats fallen apart as they have grown older and now in a difficult time in his life he wishes he still had his friend to help him through it, the memeries of his friend are of an easier time in his life, his childhood

umm what album is this from? i love biffy!

It's from "blackened sky". I agree with Gela, the whole friendship thing. He's remembering all the fun he had in the summer playing with his friends and now he's lost touch.
