Williy Gilligan from gilligans island is described in these words: Despite his bumbling nature, Gilligan has an innate innocence of character that causes the others to forgive his mistakes.
Feet cast in solid stone: Where I think he means he is stuck in this position, that he badly wants to get out of..
I got gilligan's eye : Maybe Simon is referring to willy gilligans character, meaning he bleeds with innocence(innocent eyes), hoping she will forgive him for his mistakes...
So I think he messed up badly, and is willing to do anything to get her "back". But she has a hard time forgiving him. She's still there, even though he can sense her feelings slowly fading away.
It reminds me of my ex, I didn't spend enough time with her. I was far to busy, wile she wasn't, meaning she just waited for me all day...When I felt her feelings faded, I broke up...Cause she deserved better. But all she ever wanted was more time with me.. Something I understood after I broke up, trying to get her back was impossible, she wouldn't forgive me for braking up. I still feel guilty to this day for not prioritising better. But she's got someone new, she's happy.. So my guilt is drying up :)
So I guess why I can relate to simon on this is becuase it's horrible to want someone who doesn't feel for you, but has felt for you before...Seeing their feelings fade more and more away, because of a mistake you made.. Making you feel stuck, desperate, out of perspective, and willing to do almost anything.. Sure glad I expirienced this at the age of 22, So I know I'll never do the same mistake again!
This may or may not be his point of view, but when I hear this song I sure as hell feel like what I described!
A really sad song with powerful lyrics, and I just love the guitar on this!!
feet cast in solid stone, i got gilligan's eyes
