Flume

I am my mother's only one It's enough

• he's saying this because he was abandoned/betrayed by people close to him

I wear my garment so it shows Now you know

• he's naked and vulnerable. now you know what it looks like to see him without his masks.

Only love is all maroon

• maroon is the color of dried blood. not only does love hurt, but it doesn't quite look as glorious after it's done with you.

Gluey feathers on a flume

• pieces of himself left behind as he parted ways...

Sky is womb and she's the moon

• womb is new birth. he's journeying down the flume. moon- could be guidance. he's still attached to whatever he left behind.

I am my mother on the wall, with us all '

• mother on the wall is a photograph of someone who passed away. she is not "with us all". neither is he.

I move in water, shore to shore; Nothing's more

• again, he is wandering down the river/stream..

Lapping lakes like leary loons

• feeling so alone it's driving him mad. same idea implied with the moon.

Leaving rope burns Reddish rouge

• rope burns don't happen unless he tried to hold on... he did. it hurt. he had to let go. now he's wounded reddish rouge.

that's how I understand it. - Stefan
