Widow’s Weeds Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Climbing up to metal doors
Splash of red we’ve seen before
Cryptic message on the ground
Stare straight up before looking down
Lean into this scene
Wearing widow’s weeds

[Verse 2]
Run inside and suddenly
So many limbs all over me
Pretty people wild and free

[Pre-Chorus]
Here is where I’ll leave you be
You would do the same for me

[Chorus]
Behind the roads
Beneath cities
A shape will form from little lights
Moves on you
Then covers me
From head to toe in widow’s weeds
In widow’s weeds

[Verse 3]
Make a blanket from your hair
They’re getting close but we don’t care
You whisper gently unaware

[Pre-Chorus]
That here is where I’ll leave you be
You would do the same for me

[Chorus]
Behind the roads
Beneath cities
A shape will form from little lights
Moves on you
Then covers me
From head to toe in widow’s weeds
(In widow’s weeds)
(In widow’s weeds)
(In widow’s weeds)

[Bridge]
It’s starting to shine
We’re ready to shine

[Pre-Chorus]
Pulled all the muscles in our heads
Won’t allow to look down again
No regrets
The scene is set
But don’t forget

[Chorus]
Behind the roads
Beneath cities
A shape will form from little lights
Moves on you
Then covers me
From head to toe in widow’s weeds

[Outro]
Here is where I’ll leave you be
You would do the same for me

Cover art for Widow’s Weeds lyrics by Silversun Pickups

In keeping with the theme for the album, I think this song is about being okay with your world changing and having it change you. Stop holding on so tight and grow, because life is fluid; it keeps moving and so should you.
