Jacket
Memories Woven in Threads
Lyrics
When you borrowed it that night
Reflecting on the night you borrowed the jacket
You wore my jacket for the last time
Signifying that it was the last time you wore the jacket
The jacket used to be our history
The jacket holds the shared history of the relationship
Now its only covered with your cold memory
Now, the memories associated with the jacket feel cold and distant
So much time I spent with you now
Reflecting on the time spent together
Now all that's left are tears from falling off your bed
Expressing sadness through tears left on the bed
Marks made by your sleeping head
Physical marks on the jacket from the partner's sleeping head
Lipstick from a drunken kiss
Remnants of a passionate moment, possibly regrettable
Ice cream stains that now I miss
Nostalgia for mundane moments like ice cream stains
I read the band names on the clothes
Observing band names on the jacket, representing shared interests
GBH, Black Flag and Dr. Know
Listing punk bands, indicating a rebellious or non-conformist spirit
I saw the Devo patch on your sleeve
Noticing a Devo patch, a specific detail from the shared past
And you were in my jacket without me
Feeling a sense of loss as the partner wears the jacket without you
So much time I spent with you now
Continuation of reflection on time spent together
Now all that's left are tears from falling off your bed
Reiterating the emotional impact with tears and marks on the bed
Marks made by your sleeping head
Highlighting the physical marks made by the partner while sleeping
Lipstick from a drunken kiss
Revisiting moments, including a drunken kiss and its aftermath
Ice cream stains that now I miss
Nostalgia for simple, everyday stains like those from ice cream
Blood from when you scraped your cheek
Recalling a moment of injury with blood on the jacket
That dirt from walking by the creek
Remembering outdoor adventures with dirt from walking by the creek
Coffee spilled on our first date
Referencing a spilled coffee incident, possibly a memorable first date
I used to let you wear it in the rain
Allowing the partner to wear the jacket in the rain, a symbol of trust
So much time I spent with you girl
Reflecting on the substantial time spent with the partner
Now all that's left are tears from falling off your bed
Emphasizing the residual emotional impact with tears and marks
Marks made by your sleeping head
Reiterating the physical marks on the jacket from the partner's presence
Lipstick from a drunken kiss
Recalling a drunken kiss and its mark in the form of lipstick stains
Ice cream stains that now I miss
Nostalgia for the innocence of ice cream stains, now missed
You used to wear it in the rain
Reminiscing about the partner wearing the jacket in the rain
