Titan
Titan of Love and Shame: Embrace the Blame
Lyrics
You smoked beside the stage
You were smoking next to the stage.
With the can in your hand, you then said to me
While holding a can, you said to me,
"I'm tired, please make it true"
"I'm tired, please make it true."
"And do what I, what I have asked of you"
"And do what I have asked of you."
How much will tide me over?
Questioning how much will suffice for a temporary fix.
Titan of love and shame
Referring to someone as a powerful figure associated with both love and shame.
It's time we all embrace the blame
Suggesting it's time for everyone to accept responsibility.
You spit a spotted mile
You spat out a considerable distance.
Turn around in the bed and then said to me
Turning in bed, you told me,
"I'm tired, please make it true"
"I'm tired, please make it true."
"And do what I, what I have asked of you"
"And do what I have asked of you."
How much will tide me over?
Repeating the question of how much is needed for sustenance.
Titan of love and shame
Reiterating the reference to a powerful figure associated with both love and shame.
It's time we all embrace the blame
Emphasizing the need for collective acknowledgment of responsibility.
Hissing cars that spit beneath the salt stars, thin moon
Describing cars making hissing sounds beneath the night sky, with a thin moon present.
Generous highways that lead me back towards you
Mentioning generous highways leading back towards someone.
When I pass your house the light is on in your room
Observing a lit room in someone's house as he passes by.
Drag my feet beyond the block, I am behind you
Dragging feet, feeling behind or disconnected, while following someone.
How much will tide me over?
Repeating the question of how much is needed for sustenance.
Titan of love and shame
Reiterating the reference to a powerful figure associated with both love and shame.
