The Piano Lyrics

Considering prior to writing this album, Polly Jean witnessed the death of her Grandmother (she was holding her hand at the time) I think this is about the way a family suffers with the death of a loved one. Thus explaining the lines 'oh god I miss you' and 'ghostly fingers, moving my limbs'.
