Spreading the Evening Sky With Crows
Monuments of Life: Spreading Wings in the Loneliest Sky
Lyrics
An old women she just told me
An old woman shared with me
This is the lonliest life she has ever seen
Describing the loneliest life she has witnessed
Every wrinkle is a monument
Each wrinkle represents a significant moment or experience
Meant for dust and decay
Intended for eventual deterioration and return to dust
The painter understood this
A painter comprehended this concept
Spreading the evening sky with crows
Metaphorical imagery of crows filling the evening sky
The sky all black placenta
The sky likened to a black placenta, a powerful and dark symbol
Its too big to ignore
The enormity of the sky is impossible to overlook
pull out the lawn chairs,
Suggesting a leisurely activity of unfolding lawn chairs
And watch the angels rip out their wings
Observing angels removing their wings, perhaps a metaphor for loss or change
My sweet eternity,
Addressing someone as "my sweet eternity"
You were more than I bargoned for
Expressing that the mentioned eternity exceeded expectations
I guess all good things come to an end
Reflecting on the inevitable end of positive experiences
each breath is a monument
Each breath is regarded as a monument, emphasizing significance
Every blink of the eye
Every blink of the eye holds importance
Or is it like a photograph,
Pondering whether life is akin to a photograph, capturing moments
Another day gone by
Suggesting the passing of time with the reference to another day gone by
pull out the lawn chairs,
Reiteration of unfolding lawn chairs, reinforcing a contemplative atmosphere
And watch the angels pull out their wings
Witnessing angels removing their wings, repeating the metaphor for change or loss
My sweet eternity,
Addressing someone as "my sweet eternity" again
You were more than I bargoned for
Acknowledging that the mentioned eternity surpassed expectations
All good things come to an end (x2)
Stating the universal truth that all good things come to an end (repeated)
