Lyrics
Feel your mood drip-dripping down
Describing the emotional state and its downward impact.
The pitter-patter of the rain from below your brow
Rain as a metaphor for tears falling from the eyes.
Your clouded mind makes all these puddles
A troubled mind creating emotional challenges.
He'll nurse your scarlet eyes with ult. motivated cuddles
A comforting presence providing motivation and support.
Watch him bury your past in the erosion zone
Symbolic act of letting go of the past.
His rein washing away the dirt over your own
Cleansing and renewal through a transformative process.
He who dances with ghosts
Introduction of a character who engages with the past.
His heart's bass drum is echoing
His emotional heartbeat resonating.
Building a serene sense of threatening
Creating a paradoxical sense of calm mixed with threat.
He isn't mean, just has a few "pet peeves"
Characterized as having specific dislikes.
He doesn't want you wasting time with friends and family
Discouraging close relationships, focusing on the present.
Watch him bury his past under cement and stone
Symbolic burial of personal history in a permanent way.
"Unimportant details" that will remain unknown
Dismissing small details as unimportant and hidden.
He who dances with ghosts
Reiteration of the character's engagement with the past.
And to you, he's so cute and childish
Perceiving the character as cute and childlike.
Always playing spot the difference
Emphasizing the character's inclination for observation.
He's so talented
Recognizing the character's talents.
Waltzing with the dead
Metaphorical depiction of interacting with the deceased.
He's so considerate
Attributing thoughtfulness to the character's actions.
They're always your skeletons
Acknowledging that past mistakes are always present.
It's always about you
Highlighting the self-centered nature of the character.
And now you're dancing too
Transitioning from observing to actively participating.
Watch their moods drip-dripping down
Reflecting the earlier emotional state in a different context.
The pitter-patter of the rain from below their brows
Repetition of rain imagery, extending the emotional connection.
Their clouded minds make all these puddles
Expanding the impact of troubled minds to others.
Seeping through the cracks of your cemented struggle
The struggles penetrating the character's solid defenses.
Watch him bury their pasts beside your own
Acting on behalf of others, burying their pasts together.
Your warnings inaudible beneath the stone
Warnings or concerns going unnoticed.
He who dances with ghosts
Reiteration of the character's engagement with the past, involving others.
