Cocoon Lyrics

Wow, Amazed that I'm the only one who felt this way about this song:

I think this song is about a girl who lost faith in men, and ended up building a mental cocoon that kept her same from harm, but at the same time kept every man in her life at a safe distance so a man would never be able to hurt her again. This song is the moment she finally lets another man get close to her, and she finds that he pulls her out of the cocoon, restores her blisses, and finally she feels alive again. :)

Really, only me who felt this way about this song? Wow, thought it was obvious. :O

@Human-beef The cocoon must actually be the girl\'s womb since she got pregnant by her boyfriend. Don\'t think another boy is involved. And there is long-distance love too, you\'re right, but it is only proven in the last verse showing she\'s expecting his child (throwing up being a sign of early pregnancy), while the boy must be in another country, for undisclosed reasons. The door sounds in the song may suggest that her boyfriend comes and goes from her bedroom, only closing it during the act when he fulfills her sexual desire.
