Cover art for Legless Love lyrics by Devendra Banhart

A legless love certainly wouldn't be going anywhere without legs. Spider love should have a web to keep it together, not falling apart. But, no web. The next theme is both "cased in" and "buried". Words and songs are stifled through being cased in or buried. In conclusion, I think this is about the destruction of love in general, or a specific love between two people, because of buried expression or lack of articulation of true sentiment.
