yeah bof, it is about death.
obviously empathized by the chorus (it's time)
but you can tell it's from death's point of view, ex:
So just close your eyes, son
And this won't hurt a bit
Death says before it takes a life
Death's perception of the ones left behind after a death:
And they all pretend they're Orphans
And their memory's like a train
You can see it getting smaller as it pulls away
And the things you can't remember
Tell the things you can't forget that
-they try to supress the memories & pain.
History puts a saint in every dream
Well she said she'd stick around
Until the bandages came off
-they have their religion to lean against in their time of sorrow, while grieveing.
But time heals all wounds, so the saint only sticks around for a while, until the survivors are strong again
which is fairly true: most people become more religious after a loss of a family member or friend
beautiful & sad song, kudos to tori for all the excellent covers - the strange little girls album is phenomenal, not to mention the corresponding artwork.
