Dearest Blind
Drowning in Dearest Blind: Unveiling the Depths of Love's Deception
Lyrics
But
Introduction, setting the tone
She said she wanted you
Refers to someone expressing a desire for the listener
You know it must be true
Asserting the truth of the desire
She'll feast upon your grief
Describing a negative intention to enjoy the listener's sorrow
You know what she wants you to believe
Highlighting manipulation and the desired belief
I feel safe
Expressing a sense of security
With my toes in the sand
Feeling safe on the beach
With my back to the world
Turning away from the world, seeking solitude
And a stone cold hand that
Describing a cold, unfeeling touch
Submerges with the brine
Immersing into the sea
I know her laugh cuts like the ice
Acknowledging a sharp laugh but hinting at warmth within
But there's a warmth in her insides
Suggesting a hidden positive aspect of the person
Everyone else has yet to find
Implying uniqueness not yet discovered by others
And
Transition to repetition of desire
She said she wanted you
Reiteration of the desire for the listener
Submit and play the fool
Encouragement to submit and be foolish
You're washed up for your queen
Describing the listener as washed up, while the person is drowned in tears
She's drowned out royalty saline
Symbolic drowning of royal status
Ha
Expression of amusement or irony
Get up on the floor
Command to get up and act
I can't take this anymore
Feeling overwhelmed and unable to endure
When I climb on to my high horse
Escaping to a high vantage point for a different perspective
I find the view looks so much more
Finding the elevated view uninteresting or lacking inspiration
Uninspired
Expressing disappointment or lack of motivation
Dearest Blind, art thou coaxed and charmed by me tonight
Directly addressing "Dearest Blind" and questioning their attraction
By my hinds
Referring to hindrances or obstacles
Said
Reiteration of the desire for the listener
She said she wanted you
Describing the emotional state with contradictory colors
Her heart's so red it's blue
Emphasizing emotional intensity
That galley can't be tamed
Characterizing the person as untamable
Her slaps crash like the thrash of tidal waves
Depicting the impact of the person's actions like powerful waves
How'd you - why'd you do it
Questioning the listener's motives and actions
Look me in the eyes and tell me just what I despise
Challenging the listener to confront their own flaws
I know you don't need a great mind
Downplaying the listener's intelligence
To tell she hides behind her smiles
Highlighting deception behind smiles
And a multitude of lies
Accusing the person of multiple lies
You surprised
Expressing surprise or disappointment
And I'm lost in the way
Repetition of feeling lost and being "in the way"
Lost in the way
-Lost in the way
-Lost in the way
-Lost in the way
-I'm lost in the way
-Lost in the way
-Lost in the way
-Lost in the way
-Lost in the way
-In the way
-In the way
-In the way
-Always in the way
-Always be in the way
-I'll always be in the way
-In the way
-In the way
-In the way
-In the way
-In the way
-In the way
