Definitely fitting in with the "newborn" theme of the rest of the album, the title refers to "tendrils", which are defined as:
"A twisting, threadlike structure by which a twining plant, such as a grape or cucumber, grasps an object or a plant for support. "
So basically a fresh, or newborn child, clings to his mother or father like a tendril. The lyrics make a lot more sense that way, referring to a child biting off more than it can chew- longing to enter the world that everyone seems to hate. The "Shame shame throw yourself away" line is like a parent angrily ranting almost sarcastically to her child.

Or that's how I take it.
