Plains Lyrics

Lyric discussion by AGreenMan 

Cover art for Plains lyrics by Wye Oak

the song sounds like the singer is looking back on an old relationship as if it was a past life

The days whispered and shouted, And everything counted The signs were around, We looked so we found And seeking a pattern, None of it mattered

they saw all the warning signs that their relationship was going to implode but it didnt matter because it was unavoidable

try to remember pen to the paper pushing it out what's it about the pictures are empty voices have left me ... and i am ashamed and every day is just the same

The writer is trying to come to terms with this by putting it into a song, but feels disconnected and ashamed, living a monotonous life.
