content was always my favorite color Lyrics

my world is firmly compressed into the pocket of your front breast.
we pass over cities and towns collapsed, in hopes that people find amusement amongst the depressed.
what you say - goes.
and your site beats everyone else's.
and we all know we've already won.

once in awhile, while looking on the lampost while they dance alone.
(they pivot and sway in the street ??? the light sure shed by our road flare)
(another layered line is going on with these two lines...)

la la la la la la la la, etc.

watching the ground move quick and fast
the car is stopped and i'm out of gas.
must be my fault.
whatever you say is correct by me
cause all i wanna save is a cat in a tree
i can't get it down
i can't get it down
i can't get it down
the doubt breaks inside me
as the light beat down from the giant's pockets onto the ground

you're a taker of vanities. a stealer of games.
now show me a night where us both can be safe.

you're what i want

i think what the song means is pretty obvious. he's in a controlling relationship, that he parallels with a "cat in a tree". he wants to save it, but he can't. she is what he wants... and it hurts him, but there's nothing he can do to fix the problems of the relationship.

ohhhh i love this song.

It may be about someone who's in a very controlling relationship. Or in a relationship in which the other person does bad things that they don't agree with, but can't do anything about.

That's just my take on it though.

this is a very good song, probably my favorite by the most serene republic. it's hard for me to extract the meaning out of the lines, but from the beginning it sounds like it's about a "safe, comfortable" relationship and everything is okay. and maybe at times the don't agree, like worshipaandc said, but all couples have their disagreements and in the end "you're what i want".
