Fruitful Reflections: Unveiling Life's Choices in 'Apple Tree' by Hollow Doubt
Lyrics
Oh Mother
Expressing a connection or plea to the maternal figure.
Does your life have meaning
Questioning the purpose or significance of the mother's life.
When you start to complain?
Asking if complaining defines her existence.
And when you struggle to draw breath
Describing a struggle for breath and questioning acceptance of such a fate.
Would you be content with this?
Reflecting on whether the mother would find contentment in such circumstances.
Oh Apple Tree
Shifting focus to an apple tree, possibly symbolizing a family or heritage.
How far does your fruit fall?
Questioning the extent of influence or impact (fruit) from the apple tree.
Will I be swept away?
Concern about being overwhelmed or influenced negatively.
Does maternal love outweigh the wrong?
Exploring the conflict between maternal love and the mistakes made.
As Happiness fades through fingers
Acknowledging the fleeting nature of happiness slipping away.
But you're a snake, a fucking snake
Expressing frustration and betrayal, labeling someone as a snake.
Oh Father
Shifting attention to the father figure.
When you body bends and breaks
Describing physical deterioration due to self-righteous behavior.
From self righteous destruction
Referring to destructive actions driven by a sense of moral superiority.
And maybe one day you'll see the damage
Hoping for the realization of the harm caused by the father.
You have inflicted on me
Acknowledging personal suffering caused by the father's actions.
Oh Apple Tree
Returning to the apple tree metaphor, questioning the reach of its influence.
How far does your fruit fall?
Repeating concern about being overwhelmed or negatively impacted.
Will I be swept away?
Reiterating the conflict between maternal love and mistakes made.
Does maternal love outweigh the wrong?
Revisiting the transient nature of happiness slipping away.
As happiness fades through fingers
Reemphasizing frustration and betrayal, labeling someone as a snake.
But you're a snake, a fucking snake
Continuing the narrative about the father being a negative influence.
And when time ends
Anticipating the eventual end of time and the decline of both parents.
You'll both wither away
Reflecting on whether the parents would be satisfied with their legacy.
Would you be happy with what you made?
Pondering the impact of parental actions on the speaker's well-being.
Oh Apple Tree, how you curse me
Expressing a sense of being cursed by the apple tree, suggesting ongoing negative consequences.
Oh Apple Tree, how you curse me
Reiterating the feeling of being cursed by the apple tree.
