Good Grief Lyrics

Cover art for Good Grief lyrics by Bastille

I think it's about losing someone who is very dear to you, like a family member. Some sentences are very strange, but I think it reflects the different kind of relationships you can have with family members like grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters. Lyrics like 'put my in my place', 'dancing at a funeral (I hope the person died of very old age and death is the relief), 'watching through my fingers' and 'every stumble and each misfire' reflect the mixed emotions one could feel in different relations and in losing someone you love.
