Love's Tempest: Navigating Loyalty and Rebellion
Lyrics
Love is not a debtor's prison
Love is not a restrictive obligation; it doesn't imprison individuals.
You don't have to serve a sentence
There's no mandatory punishment or duty associated with love.
To pay back what you've been given
Contrary to owing something in return, love doesn't require repayment.
Now I live in fear of your schizophrenic genius
There's apprehension and fear regarding the unpredictable and creative nature of the partner.
It's a tempestuous despot
The partner's creativity is described as a turbulent and oppressive ruler.
That I can't seem to propitiate
The attempts to appease or satisfy this creative force seem unsuccessful.
Now I feel you're provoking me with your fidelity
The partner's faithfulness is perceived as a deliberate attempt to provoke.
But your loyalty and affections
Loyalty and affection are viewed as cunning and hostile actions.
Are somehow a vulpine act of hostility
The partner's actions are contradictory, causing confusion and conflict.
Now we're a bore, we're afternoon TV
The relationship has become dull and uninteresting, akin to mundane afternoon television.
This thing our minds are screaming to defy
The minds involved resist conformity and rebel against the mundane.
How can I bury this rebellion
The challenge is to suppress this rebellion while demonstrating loyalty.
While proving that I'm still your rock 'n' roll ally?
Struggling to maintain a rebellious spirit while still being a supportive partner.
Once more I turn to my crotch for counsel
Seeking guidance or solace in physical desires, possibly as a form of escapism.
And it won't disappoint me
Indulging in physical desires is a reliable source of satisfaction.
I know it's the shadow cast by what's looming in the ?
A suggestion that physical desires may be influenced by looming uncertainties or fears.
I was dreaming of the hunt
The speaker dreams of a pursuit or adventure.
You clapped your hands sharply twice to wake me up
Interrupted dream by a partner, signaling a return to reality.
Oh, darkness was gripping the sky
A sense of darkness or negativity prevails in the atmosphere.
I knew I could still be your rock 'n' roll ally
Despite challenges, the speaker desires to maintain a supportive role in the relationship.
