Little Fury Things Lyrics

Cover art for Little Fury Things lyrics by Dinosaur Jr.

I don't think you can ever say what it means. I think it was purposefully made to be not easily understood so that the listener could take his or her own interpretation from it.

When I heard this, I got a totally different interpretation then the whole stalker thing because of what I was going through. The line "Tried to think what's over me, it makes me crawl Then she runs away from me, faster than I crawl" means, to me, like when you're trying to figure out where you're going in life and how to deal with the situation and you get so caught up with that you lose her as she runs away faster than you crawl. Crawling symbolizes moving through life slowly and confused while others run away.

Beautiful song... Listen to it and make your own interpretation.
