I just discovered this band on iTunes and I'm liking them a lot. What a unique song. I've listened to it a couple times and I get a notion that the song is somehow about abortion, or at least it has a pro-life twinge to it. In the first paragraph, it sounds like they had sex or whatevs, then in the second paragraph it says "Your Son, Your Daughter, Swimming in the Water" like she has conceived. Later it says
"Human skin, can be hard to live in
You'll feel better in the morning
Wash your hands in the lake
You've got a heart, some way"
as if to say she has morning sickness, or perhaps it's hard to have a teenage pregnancy or soemthing, but that the baby is human nonetheless (You've got a heart some way").
At the end it says "Wash your face in the lake
You've got a diamond under your skin". It's like telling her to refresh herself, be happy, snap out of it, because children are precious. I could be wrong, it's just my interpretation. Beautiful song.
