Jackrabbits Lyrics

Cover art for Jackrabbits lyrics by Joanna Newsom

It's not about being born again, but is about coming out of a dark depression and finally finding oneself able to love again.

I imagine its about a man who lost his wife and drank away his sorrows until he finally found his way through it. He wasn't able to let go of his old love for a long time, staying faithful to her long after she'd passed.

There may be tangents with this and "Go Long" - also about a man struggling to let go of past loves. Almost every song on the album has a "pair".
