Cradle
Unveiling Hidden Desires: Decoding 'Cradle' by The Joy Formidable
Lyrics
I can see he says what he means
I can see he expresses his thoughts clearly
I can't say what he means when he says that
Uncertain about the true meaning when he speaks
I'll pretend a pretty pretend
Engaging in a facade, a superficial act
When all I wanna see is the end of this
Desire for the conclusion or resolution of a situation
I can see he says what he means
Reiteration of his clear expression of thoughts
We'll deal him sticks and stones and apologies
Facing criticism and seeking forgiveness
I wish
Expressing a desire or longing
Oh, I wish it was through
Wishing for a resolution or completion
Scrape the skies
Metaphorically reaching for ambitious goals
Get up off your knees
Encouragement to stand up and persevere
Just lift the marks
Remove the scars, seek new beginnings
And new-found releases
Finding relief in newfound freedoms
I'll pretend a pretty pretend
Returning to a false or idealized reality
When all I wanna see is the end of this
Yearning for the conclusion or resolution
I wish
Expressing a repeated wish or desire
I wish
Reiterating the wish for resolution
I wish the cobwebs would cover me
Desiring to be obscured or hidden
Cover me
Requesting to be covered or protected
Cover me
Repeating the desire for cover or protection
My vicious tongue cradles just one
Repetition emphasizing the harm caused by words
My vicious tongue cradles just one
-My vicious tongue cradles just one
-My vicious tongue cradles just one
-My vicious tongue cradles just one
-My vicious tongue cradles just one
-My vicious tongue cradles just one
Continued emphasis on the harm caused by words
