Heavenly Showers
Morning Regrets and Shower Serenades: Twin Peaks' Heavenly Showers Meaning
Lyrics
When I woke up this morning in a cold sweat
Waking up with intense anxiety or fear
Death was telling me to follow his cue
Death metaphorically urging the narrator to follow
Well, I woke up this morning with a regret
Morning realization of regret
Of not spending the night with you
Regret for not spending the night with someone
And I looked around my bed and saw the books and the records and the booze
Surveying the items around the bed (books, records, booze)
And I shook the thoughts of you from my head
Attempting to dismiss thoughts of the person
And in the shower started singing a tune
Singing in the shower to distract from emotions
No, I don't feel too sad, but I could
Expressing a lack of intense sadness at the moment
No I don't feel too bad now darling, but I sure could
Confirming the absence of feeling too bad currently
But I don't, and you better bet that I won't
Committing to not succumb to negative emotions
When a girl came walking on by, I smiled and I nodded hello
Interacting with a girl who responds negatively
And she screamed and she swung and nearly tore out my eyes
Girl's aggressive reaction causing harm
And started dancing when I fell to the floor
Dancing in response to the violent encounter
And I woke up in my bed, and saw the books and the records and the booze
Awakening in bed, revisiting the surroundings
And I shook the thoughts of love from my head
Rejecting thoughts of love and emotional entanglement
And in the shower started singing a tune
Returning to singing in the shower as a coping mechanism
No, I don't feel too sad, but I could
Reiterating the absence of intense sadness at the moment
No I don't feel too bad now darling, but I sure could
Reconfirming the current lack of feeling too bad
But I don't, and you better bet that I won't
Emphasizing the commitment to avoid negative emotions
