Lyrics

Love of my life

Expressing affection, referring to a significant person as the love of their life.

When you gonna crawl out of my dreams

Questioning when the person will become a reality instead of just existing in dreams.

When you gonna show me what it means to be alive?

Asking when the person will reveal the true essence of living, seeking a deeper connection.


Love of my life

Reiterating the affection, expressing a desire to merge or disappear metaphorically.

I just wanna sink into the floor

Expressing a wish to escape or avoid reality, possibly due to emotional distress.

Do you think they’ll find my body under floorboards?

Raising the possibility of a grim outcome, contemplating extreme scenarios.


And I’m holding onto till the luck runs out

Committing to a relationship despite challenges, holding on until luck runs out.

I’m a garden in your drought

Metaphorically comparing oneself to a garden in a drought, suggesting emotional emptiness.


Don’t say tomorrow if you mean goodbye

Advising against false promises of tomorrow if the intention is to say goodbye.

I don’t wanna get clean, oh get clean tonight

Expressing reluctance to let go and embrace change, resisting the idea of getting clean.

It’s getting late so I’ll sleep by your shrine

Acknowledging the lateness of the hour, indicating a sense of urgency or finality.

I don’t wanna get clean, oh get clean tonight

Reiterating the resistance to getting clean, maintaining a connection despite challenges.


Racing down the highway to Unknown Pleasures

Describing a journey down a metaphorical highway towards uncertain pleasures.

You respond with silence to my forevers

Noting the lack of response to promises of eternal commitment.

and I got just about nothing figured out

Admitting a lack of clarity or certainty in life.

but the feeling goes away when it gets loud

Suggesting that intense feelings or emotions can drown out uncertainties temporarily.


Don’t say tomorrow if you mean goodbye

Repeating the caution against false promises of tomorrow leading to goodbyes.

I don’t wanna get clean, oh get clean tonight

Reiterating the reluctance to undergo a process of cleansing or change.

It’s getting late so I’ll sleep by your shrine

Acknowledging the lateness of the hour again, perhaps emphasizing urgency or finality.

I don’t wanna get clean, oh get clean tonight

Repeating the resistance to getting clean, expressing a desire to stay connected.


And I’m holding onto till the luck runs out

Reiterating the commitment to hold on until luck runs out, using a garden metaphor.

I’m a garden in your drought

Repeating the metaphor of being a garden in a drought, emphasizing emotional emptiness.


Don’t say tomorrow if you mean goodbye

Warning against false promises leading to goodbyes, emphasizing the impact of words.

I don’t wanna get clean, oh get clean tonight

Expressing resistance to getting clean, maintaining a connection despite challenges.

It’s getting late so I’ll sleep by your shrine

Emphasizing the lateness of the hour, possibly underscoring a sense of urgency.

I don’t wanna get clean, oh get clean tonight

Repeating the reluctance to undergo a process of cleansing or change.
