Cover art for Knockturne lyrics by Bonnie 'Prince' Billy

I see it as a very passionate love song, but a love that is hot and an afterthought and that leaves later... too soon; but the heat and the tension were worth it or on another plain. It was enough to turn the world. I wonder how he got burned, whether the relation ended so soon.. that this was it, the burn.
