God I love the horns! And I love the opening lines it sounds like he's just saying I always wanted to have a cigarette with you, but he can't just come right out and say it. Which is what makes the volta great. Cause if you give it some thought, cigarettes use to have fiberglass filters, so eat glass makes sense with all the other smoking references throughout the album.
Ok this song seems to be the death of the main character, as she's been convicted of her crime and now sentenced to death. I'm not quite sure if Miranda is her or a daughter. But obviously no one has come to the main character's aid.
"And when Miranda sang Everyone turned away" as in nobody dared to help. And "Used to the noose they obey" I think just signifies that they all know what would happen to them in society if they stood up for her killing her husband. Which is what I believe is going on in this album, along with some other story I haven't totally figured out yet.

Does anybody else feel this way or am I crazy?
