Lyrics
Oh Glass Beach, you know nothing of me
Expressing a lack of understanding or connection with Glass Beach.
And I sense no curiosity
Not sensing any curiosity from Glass Beach.
Amuse yourself with feelings of how
Suggesting Glass Beach entertains itself with emotions, possibly without understanding.
Like Libra you're growing fainter now
Comparing Glass Beach to Libra, implying a fading or diminishing presence.
Like yesterday's bouquet
Comparing past experiences to a wilted bouquet, indicating a sense of loss or deterioration.
Looks a little sad today
Highlighting the somber appearance of a once joyful or vibrant memory.
Confusion I'll greet like an old friend
Anticipating confusion and treating it as a familiar companion.
As tonight they set me right
Referencing a corrective action tonight that will address the confusion.
In the end I will be forgotten
Acceptance of eventual obscurity or being forgotten.
As tonight they set me right
Reiterating the corrective nature of tonight's actions and the acceptance of being forgotten.
So here's one for all the cynics then:
Addressing cynics and suggesting they hate for personal actions, not for one's offspring.
Hate me for what I've done, not for my idiot children
Expressing a preference for being judged for personal deeds rather than one's children.
I want to think you won't
Expressing a desire that the listener won't remember like last year's snow, indicating a fleeting or temporary memory.
Remember me like last year's snow
Emphasizing the wish to be forgotten, extending the metaphor of last year's snow.
Confusion I'll greet like an old friend
Repeating the anticipation of confusion as a familiar presence.
As tonight they set me right
Reiterating the corrective action tonight to address confusion.
In the end I will be forgotten
Restating the acceptance of eventual obscurity or being forgotten.
As tonight they set me right
Reiterating the corrective nature of tonight's actions and the acceptance of being forgotten.
