Still

I also see it as the death of a relationship, but I feel it more as if it's about the fear of its real end. The love was once so strong that maybe they hope that staying together they could love each other again, searching for a sign by the other that something is changing in positive, but it's just like continuing the agony and fueling the bad feelings that are replacing the love. They're both afraid to be the one to say "stop, it's over", 'cause they're aware that after that there will be no coming back.

This song is so beautiful. I can't get it out of my head. Anyway, this is what I think it's about: I think it's about two people that have fallen out of love with each other, but feel like they have to try and be together. It's the last moments of a relationship, a relationship's dying breaths. The relationship is failing, but the two people feel they have to stay together because in reality, they don't know what they would do without the other person. They want to be together, but their hearts are preventing them from loving the person. "Still with feet touching Still with eyes meeting Still our hands match Still with hearts beating" They're pretending they are still in love, it's a show for the public, and themselves.

So yeah, that's the idea I was getting.

Like so many, I think this is about two people falling out love with each other, but still clinging to the ghosts of the love they once shared. I was in this exact situation, living with a boyfriend for two years, the last six months was a living imitation of this song. I'm not even sure I could describe it any better than this song does. Laying in bed next to someone you used to adore, both of you awake pretending the other one isn't, both craving intimacy if only to bring back that love...but it never does. The words behind words, the viciousness that feeling trapped in a dead relationship brings out, it just spreads like poison. Eventually we parted ways and I left when I just couldn't do it without losing everything of myself,but it was hard to get to the point that I could separate from someone who had a hand in every part of my life. Not just emotionally, but financially as well. I think that's a big part that makes you feel like you have nowhere to go. You're living with someone, sharing financial responsibility, and if you're young or don't have a lot of money saved, it really does leave you in a prison you made yourself when a relationship dies. Anyways, that's my interpretation.

I think this song is about a process of falling out of love but not necessarily because of the lack of love. I think that the love is still strong but they both stand on different principles and after different things. They may be a very different, very opposite individuals to begin with but fell madly in love and these differences are causing them to hurt each other - unintentionally; "Two feet standing on a principle Two hands digging in each others wounds"

While this: "Two feet standing on a principle Two hands longing for each others warmth" I think shows that no matter how different they are they still need each other and can't seem to let go, making the relationship somewhat unhealthy.

That's what I think at least. I really adore this song, very beautifully written.

Elena Tonra mainly wrote from things she experienced in some way. I believe this song is about a loss of a lover. But I don't think it was just any lover... I believe it was the only one she had fully fallen in love with and that's what made him so special. I believe that it's a story of a love gone wrong but neither of them wanting to admit that. I believe it's a song of neglect and regret. I think she wants to take everything back that she did wrong and make everything okay and so does he and that's why neither of them have left even though their love is clearly burning to ashes in front of them. Neither of them want to accept the fact that it's over... because once they do they will lose each other forever.

this really describes my situation of love right now..

I think shes destroying herself In order to save a relationship that is hanging by a string. ("I'll wrap up my bones and leave them out of this home out on the road.") She stays because he is the only home she knows even though its not a warm one anymore its still a home. She swallows all the hateful words/actions forcing herself to find the fire that drew them both together but that fire is gone. Its all so cold and bitter now. All she knows is she still loves him and he loves her and isn't love supposed to be enough? Through It all she will keep on pretendin everything is okay in hopes that one day it will be.

These are just my thoughts on this beautiful song that I can not stop listening to.

This song is about a broken relationship. There is no passion, no desire to be with each other, but the thought of not being together is too painful. The comfort level and love is there and always will be, and letting that person go and moving on is a concept that neither person wants to exercise. The positive memories, the fact that the two of them are best friends and yet so toxic to one another will prevent them from being honest with themselves and will allow them to continue on in a painful relationship. The lack of intimacy slowly breaks down both of them and eventually even the slightest touch is rare. It hurts like hell, and yet they keep it going. It's an addiction and takes a lot to finally let go and move on. A realization needs to occur, that things will never be right. It was never meant to be. It was a lesson in life and an experience that both will never forget. The love will always be there, but the hurt will never be settled. Moving on and experiencing a different kind of love with someone else is the only thing that will allow you to move on. Never fully. This song can speak to anyone who has been in an abusive relationship, or just generally an unhealthy one. Letting go is the hardest thing in the world, and pretending just seems easier than actually moving on and cutting ties fully. Too many people experience this, and yet once you move on, acceptance kicks in and it changes you in a positive manner.

Obviously speaking from experience...
