I think this song is really cool.. It's about religious people. probably a religious person she tried to get close to.
first you'll roll your eyes to heaven
say you never had love so divine (people who believe in god say they feel this "love")
but it will go from
more than ever
to not enough
in no time (self explanatory)
you will push and
you will push un-
til you push me away
i hear you cry out for your water
and i know you'll curse it someday
that part is pretty straight forward. then she says something truely beautiful.
"But we are 78% percent water, even our pumping hearts." that really doesn't sound like much, but the first two verses talking about water. "put your feet in, and you would pray" and "i hear you cry out for your water" etc. but then this verses WE are water. To me, it means we are our own gods. We shouldn't have to look for love from some idea in the sky. we should find love from ourselves. from other people.
look at the word water in this song as a metaphor for god or religion or that type of stuff. and you'll understand it a lot better.
