Rhymes of an Hour Lyrics
I think it's about crisis... and someone thinking about a way to deal with the situation, and NOT struggle with it '[...]cannot hear what you're saying', NOT to run '[...]can't leave my troubles', and NOT to work things up '[...]i'm going home'... For me, it's all about that particular times when you're stuck, incapable of doing anything... and begging for a quiet moment, a pause in the crisis, just to breath and think clearly...
this song is so ambient and peaceful, i love mazzy star and portishead oh what talent
i'm listenng to it right now and i must say, its beautiful. Ah I love Mazzy Star!
..I'm going "home" (into my bed), I lie and sleep under deep...(deep =intensive meaningful)...for "the rhymes of an hour" I listen music then...lieing in bed, floating away with music...how reliefing in those times we live in these days
i love this song for some reason, a quite, sad but sweet sound to it.
just heard it the other dqay at the end of an episode of House, really kinda striking the context it was put into, and really fit into the end of the show.
This song is amazing, it reminds me of a girl struggling with self confidence while being a drug addict. "And I can't believe I'm nothing,'cause I'm coming down", she's loosing her friends, her family and her self belief because of drugs, yet she still isn't sure she wants to stop them.
Think it's about start seeing suicide as a possibility, wondering about the afterlife
Perhaps some of the best, craziest music ever recorded. Sounds like every 15-year-old crisis I ever experienced, from both sides, surely round a campfire, with tambourines and a simple guitar line and harmonica and a real stoned bassline. Who turned Bertolucci onto this?
