Lyrics

What the hell is this?

Expressing confusion or disbelief about a situation.

You said, "It's art, just fuckin' mirror it."

Quoting someone who suggests that the situation is artistic and should be reflected without clear guidance.

Where did we go wrong?

Pondering where a relationship went wrong.

If not here, where do we belong?

Questioning the place of belonging if not in the current situation.


In a shot of sun off an airplane far above her?

Reflecting on finding beauty or meaning in unexpected places, possibly in distant views from an airplane.

In the glint of the foot-burnished manhole cover?

Finding significance in mundane urban details, like the glint of a manhole cover.

In a light, a sign of one kind or another?

Searching for meaning in various signs or symbols.

In the gleaming eye of a fighter or a lover?

Questioning whether meaning can be found in the intense gaze of a fighter or a lover.


Sitting here at the Horton's,

Emphasizing the importance of the current moment at a specific location (Horton's).

So you know this is important.

Stressing the significance of the situation being discussed.

If not here, then where?

Raising the question of where else one could be if not in the present situation.

If not now then when?

Asking about the appropriate time for action if not now.


When a feather's an immovable force?

Raising the concept of an unstoppable force, possibly a metaphor for a challenging situation.

When the stampede's an obstacle course?

Describing a chaotic and difficult situation, likening it to a stampede.

When Ancient Train has hit Ol' Transient Horse?

Mentioning a collision between traditional and transient elements.

When we're a Vancouver divorce?

Suggesting that the relationship has become a "Vancouver divorce," possibly alluding to a specific type of separation.


Now that we've hammered the last spike

Referring to the completion of a significant project or milestone.

And we've punched the railroad through,

Describing the accomplishment of a challenging task (punching the railroad through).

Thought there'd be more to say

Expressing surprise that there isn't more to discuss or do after achieving a major goal.

Thought there'd be more to do.

Feeling unfulfilled or disappointed with the aftermath of completing a significant endeavor.


I love your paintings-don't take your colors away.

Complimenting the partner's artistic abilities and expressing love.

I've grown more fearful of them every day.

Admitting increasing fear or discomfort with the partner's art over time.

Swimming up their dark rivers to discover your source,

Metaphorically swimming through the emotional depths of the partner's artwork to understand its origin.

A source of strange and unrequited remorse.

Noticing an unsettling and unreciprocated sense of guilt or regret associated with the partner's art.


And I found the end of the world, of course,

Confirming the discovery of a significant endpoint.

But it's not the end of the world, of course.

Clarifying that the endpoint is not the literal end of the world but rather a metaphorical "Vancouver divorce."

It's just a Vancouver divorce.

Summarizing the situation as just a "Vancouver divorce," suggesting a specific type of separation associated with Vancouver.

It's just a Vancouver divorce.

Reiterating the idea that the situation is a "Vancouver divorce," emphasizing its unique nature.
