Suture Up Your Future Lyrics

I'm gonna suture up my future
I ain't jaded, I just hate it
See, I've been down too long
It's kinda hard to explain
Gone and buried all I carried
All my evil through a needle
As it pulled through the eye of what was
And what will are now gone

Don't sweat it
Thread it to forget it
To feel like you've already gone on
To the rest of, the rest of the life that you've got
Take a picture, bury it all away
Bury it all away

Tried to fake it, I just can't take it
I don't care if it hurts
Just so long as it's real
I won't waste it, turned to face it
I'd sharpened a knife, then used it till bone made it dull
Tried explaining, done explaining
I got caught in a plant
Of all this talking at once
I've been giving my love away
To the things that tear it apart
I'm gonna suture up my future

Thread it to forget it
To feel like you've already gone on
To the rest of, the rest of the life that you've got
Tie the loose ends and bury it all away
It's like this, it's like this

"This song is about looking forward and not giving a fuck what's behind." straight from the man himself at 3 voor 12 Acoustic Session, Desmet Studios, Amsterdam.

Song Meaning

This song just sounds like someone who's had their heart broken and now they are depressed about it. In the second verse they decide to try to cut themselves just so that they could feel something (I don't care if it hurts/Just so long as it's real) and they realize after they cut that the depression they have is brought on by themselves and not someone else. So in the end they are stitching the cut closed which seems symbolic of them moving on and sewing closed the wounds of the past.

My Interpretation

The lyrics are wrong as fuck.

I’m gonna suture up my future I ain’t jaded, I just hate it See, I’ve been down too long It’s kinda hard to explain done and buried all I carried All my evil through a needle As it pulled through the eye What was and will are all gone Don’t sweat it Thread it to forget it To feel like you’ve already gone on To the rest of, the rest of the life that you’ve got Take a picture, bury it all away Bury it all away Tried to fake it, I just can’t take it I don’t care if it hurts Just so long as it’s real I won’t waste it, I turned to face it I’d sharpened a knife, then used it till bone made it dull Tried explaining, done explaining Got caught in the plaid All this talking at once I’ve been giving my love away To the things that tear it apart I’m gonna suture up my future Thread it to forget it To feel like you’ve already gone on To the rest of, the rest of the life that you’ve got Tie the loose ends and bury it all away It’s like this, it’s like this

its about putting the past behind you

putting the things to rest that have been taking up too much of your time and energy

doing this all so that you can HAVE a future

Just heard this song a few minutes ago, pretty sweet even for an acoustic version.

yer that seems to make more sense, ooops

This song is about burrying your past AND future or about living in the present. And how hard it is actually. You can go deeper into that but right now I'm realising it's not worth the fucking effort. Just keep it to yourself.

A really good song, the new album is much, much more than I expected. Great proggress indeed.
