Shimmer
Shimmering Horizons: Unveiling the Poetic Depths of Throwing Muses
Lyrics
You in the water
You are submerged in the water
Underneath the tarp
Beneath the protective covering
It don't rain under the water
Rain doesn't fall beneath the water surface
It don't rain inside my heart
Emphasizing emotional resilience, rain doesn't penetrate my heart
Don't follow me home
Do not accompany me to my residence
Don't follow me home
Reiteration: Do not accompany me home
You walking in the gulf stream
You are navigating in a strong ocean current
Tail between your legs
Expressing submissiveness or defeat with your tail between your legs
It's not funny if you ask me
Humor is absent when directly questioned
It's just funny in your head
Humor resides only within your thoughts
Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on
Repetition for emphasis: urging to endure or persevere
My tongue is filled with sugar
Metaphorical description of sweet speech
And my back is filled with pain
Physical discomfort or distress in the speaker's back
Your tongue is on my shoulder
Intimacy depicted with the placement of the tongue
And there's nothing on my brain
The speaker's mind is unburdened or empty
Don't follow me home
Reiteration: Do not follow the speaker home
Don't follow me home
Emphasis on the request not to follow the speaker home
Shake barrels of whiskey down my throat
Imagery of consuming alcohol excessively
I'll still see straight
The speaker claims they will maintain clarity even after drinking
Ride out on a pony
Departing on a small horse, even in a state of disarray
Even loose I won't be late
Promising not to be delayed, even in a loose or free state
Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on
Repetition for emphasis: urging to endure or persevere
I'll ride on a pony
Continuing the theme of riding on a horse
Till I'm dusty and I'm old
Persisting on a horse until old age
My head is filled with flowers
The speaker's thoughts are positive and filled with beauty
And I'm dressed in shiny gold
The speaker is adorned in shining gold
I'm dressed in shiny gold
Repetition: Emphasizing the speaker's golden appearance
Keep an eye on me I shimmer on horizons
The speaker encourages being observed as they radiate on the horizon
Keep an eye on me I shimmer on horizons
Repetition: Continuing the encouragement to be observed on the horizon
A shimmer on horizons
A visual shimmering effect on the horizon
A shimmer on horizons
Repetition: The shimmering effect is reiterated
A shimmer on horizons
Repetition: The shimmering effect persists on the horizons
A shimmer on horizons
Repetition: The shimmering effect endures on the horizons
A shimmer in your eyes, son
The shimmering effect is now in someone's eyes, suggesting reflection
A shimmer in your eyes, son
Repetition: The shimmering effect is in someone's eyes
A shimmer in your eyes
Reiteration: The shimmering effect is in someone's eyes
