Grass
Embracing Fear: Amazon Crimes' Green Grass Symphony
Lyrics
Big house
Expressing the presence of a large residence
White picket fences all around
Describing the existence of traditional suburban boundaries
Green grass
Referring to well-maintained, lush vegetation
Mow it once a week
Indicating the need for regular lawn maintenance
She said
Quoting a person expressing reluctance
"I don't do that"
Stating a refusal with a sense of fear
I'm scared
Acknowledging a state of fear
It's okay to feel that way
Offering reassurance that it's normal to feel scared
But what if
Pondering the possibility of being too old for fear
I'm too old to be afraid
Expressing concern about age-related fear
Come back
Requesting a return or reconciliation
Don't let it play out like this
Urging against letting a situation unfold negatively
Hold on, for another perfect kiss
Encouraging holding on for a moment of perfection
Fuck that
Rejecting the idea of needing to feel awake
I don't need to feel awake
Expressing a lack of desire for alertness
But, I'm scared
Admitting to a constant state of fear
I'm always ready to break
Indicating a persistent vulnerability to breaking
Big house
Repeating the imagery of a large residence
White picket fences all around
Reiterating the presence of suburban boundaries
Green grass
Repeating the mention of well-maintained grass
Mow it once a week
Reiterating the need for regular lawn maintenance
She said "I don't do that"
Quoting a person reaffirming a refusal with fear
I don't do that
Repeating the refusal without engaging in lawn maintenance
I'm scared
Reiterating a state of fear
It's okay to feel that way
Reaffirming the acceptance of feeling scared
But what if
Repeating the contemplation of age-related fear
I'm too old to be afraid
Repeating the concern about being too old for fear
Come back
Reiterating the plea for a return or reconciliation
Don't let it play out like this
Repeating the caution against negative unfolding
Hold on, for another perfect kiss
Reiterating the encouragement to hold on for perfection
Fuck that
Repeating the rejection of the need to feel awake
I don't need to feel awake
Reiterating the lack of desire for alertness
But, I'm scared
Reiterating a constant state of fear
I'm always ready to break
Reiterating the acknowledgment of being always ready to break
