Cover art for Impossible lyrics by Something For Kate

this song is really gorgeous, i just have a hard time deciphering what it's about. i think it is about the protagonist keeping something from this other person, so that their naiive, unrealistic ideals are not destroyed. it seems to me like the protagonist really wants to believe that this person's dreams can be realised, though.

the verses are very hard to figure out, although i love them. "mood-swinging from a chandelier". i love that wordplay. i think the girl may actually know that her 'parade' is 'impossible', but she's hiding that part of herself - 'something reminds you', 'a part of you believes', to not 'listen too hard to the beating of your wings'. i think that the line 'i hit the ground' may be related to the first line ('or you might fall') - the protagonist differs from the girl and 'listens too hard' to his own opinion of the girl's ideas.

the werewolf and chameleon analogies may hint at the girl or situation being very volatile - constantly changing form, 'mood swings'. mm.. tricky paul. i adore it though.
