PartySick 159,824 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 I think I do tbh looking for meanings and metaphors because I don't believe she'd write a song solely about s-x or something similar...well not now-a-days at least lol Take Sexxx Dreams for example. When I listen to that song, I hear the story of Gags laying in bed with her lover with whom she has a turbulent relationship (Luc inspired, probably). So she lays in bed and thinks of who she really wants to be with and how she's in her s-x dreams. HOWEVER. When I hear it, I don't focus on the "s-x(xx)", I focus on the "dreams". I listen to it as if she's saying that lover in bed with you is your inhibitions. He's a representation of what's holding you back or whatever's preventing you from going forwards. The dream lover? That's actually your passion. That's what you strive for in life, whatever that goal may be. So you lay in bed after a hard day, touch yourself (SHICD reference, maybe? Cry, drink, whatever) and think of how great life will be/could be when you finally reach your goals. I mean, of course that may not be what she was intending but that's what that song means to me. Her songwriting is just So do you think I'm waaay off with that? What are some songs that you like to look deep into and a--lyze the meanings? 🌸Flourishing and vibrant🌼 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
