I like to think of this song as someone dying rather than a relationship. It's more kooky that way and well, Tori is kooky!
What does everyone think of the 'they say Confucious does his crossword with a pen' line? I get the impression that it means he's so clever he can do it with a pen without making mistakes (haha) but whatever it means, how does it fit in with the rest of the song?
@happyphantom I dig this line. Confucius was a sage in life, but a sage understands the limits to their understanding, which suggests a 'confusion' in the life we live. Being now in the afterlife, he's in a place with far more certainty, such that he can now do his 'crossword with a pen'. God these comments are so old. Anyone else still dig Tori?

@demerson a couple of weeks ago I logged into the email address I used for this account, which I almost never use now apart from for total junk stuff, and saw an email notification pop up to say someone had replied to this comment...what a blast from the past :)

And yeah I still like Tori! :) although more her older stuff these days, and I spend less time obsessing over song lyrics than I did in 2005... I'm also much less offended by the Kate Bush comparisons than I used to be!
