Flowers and a Wreath
Mending Hearts and Broken Homes: Still Life Still's Evocative Journey
Lyrics
You and me in medicine hearts
You and I have hearts that require healing or care.
What do you want from them
What are your expectations or desires from others?
Some sort of home in the hate
Searching for a sense of belonging in a hostile environment.
I'm leaving my house today
I'm leaving my home today, suggesting a significant change or departure.
Now I'm afraid of scars on the statues
Now I fear the imperfections or wounds on the symbols or monuments.
Weather in our love until your my new friend
We'll endure challenges in our love until you become my new friend.
Fuck I want to try to be everything else
Expressing a desire to explore and be diverse; a sense of dissatisfaction.
I want the wolves to come inside our house
Desiring challenges or difficulties (wolves) to enter our shared space.
What's the problem, it made you feel
Asking about a problem that affected your emotions.
I feel you buried in your new red heels
Feeling the presence of someone in new red heels on a deep level.
Fists that crash
Physical aggression or conflicts.
In my face
Direct impact on the speaker's face.
Bleeds on the fashion you make me ache
Bloodstains on the fashion, indicating the impact on personal style or identity.
When I have a home I'll write this down
Planning to document experiences when a stable home is achieved.
Try to explain the XXX theme
Attempting to explain a complex or taboo theme (XXX theme).
Of course it's money that brought you to love
Highlighting the influence of money on love.
I use to sit and watch her eyes
Reflecting on the past habit of observing someone's eyes intensely.
Sink into her skull all night
Imagery of sinking into deep thought or contemplation.
The television lighting our broke up rooms
Television illuminating the spaces that have been emotionally shattered.
I heard it's your birthday with your bones
Acknowledging someone's birthday, possibly in a difficult situation.
Someone's underground but I woke up
Reference to an underground presence, possibly secretive or hidden.
Brush the dirt off the leaves
Cleaning away the negativity or troubles (dirt) from life.
Flowers and a wreath
Symbolic representation of both life and death, suggesting a cycle.
You and me in medicine hearts
Repetition of the theme of hearts needing care and attention.
Scratching at the surface next to him
Scratching the surface, exploring the superficial aspects next to someone.
If you want you could swallow my fortune
Offering personal wealth or value for the other person to consume.
A bigger back yard means nothing
Rejecting the significance of material possessions like a bigger backyard.
It rained on the power lines where I grew up
Recalling rainy moments in the speaker's upbringing, possibly challenging times.
If I gave up would you still want to touch
Questioning if the person would still desire connection if the speaker gives up.
It rained on the power lines where I grew up
Repetition of the impact of rain on power lines, symbolizing challenges.
If I gave up would you still want to touch
Repetition of the question about maintaining connection despite giving up.
So I could feel you buried
A desire to feel a deep connection even if buried or hidden.
