![]() ![]() With the rain bringing in new lives that you need to be involved with and replenishing you with thoughts of being back in reality and getting a hold of what is real. (Dry your eyes)- Now is the time to get over the hump and end the mourning. The rain renews and is responsible for continuing and helping create new life among the earth. (Soon comes rain)- the rain is a metaphor for a refreshing start. (Love dont cry skeleton me)- He/she is telling the singer to not cry their tears will still not change that he/she is dead. So frozen or turned to ash no matter if the skeleton's physical form is changed, he/ she is still dead. (Frost or flame skeleton me)- Even if one of the world's most disastrous things happens rather it be a blizzard or a fire he/she is still a skeleton and once becoming a skeleton will never change from the root meaning of being dead. (Love left dry)- He/she is gone and there is no hope of him/her coming back. They cope with the loss by thinking this is what the loved one would tell them if they were to see them as a ghost. ![]() I think that the singer has lost a loved one and this is their way of dealing with their loss. Regardless of how you may choose to interpret it I think it is one of the best songs I've heard all year. This song seems to almost have a haunting quality to it. Maybe, they loved each other just as much as was humanly possible, but for reasons it was just to hard for both sides to bare. The coldness of feeling alone became more consuming then the flame of their love, and the lover in the song eventually left because he/she couldn't watch the singer go on as a "skeleton" of herself. Even though they might have been together (in a relationship) she still felt hollow and empty like a skeleton because she was always physically away from her lover. The distance and constant leaving made the love lose its idealistic glow. "Fall asleep Spin the sky" makes me think that the singer was always on the go and waking up in different cities or countries. I think this song is definitely about the end of a relationship. The lyrics are simple yet they invoke so much emotion. The publisher and editor, Captain Billy Fawcett, soon began publishing other material under the name Fawcett Books, which is still a major publishing house.I heard this song for the first time today and it made me cry. In World War II, the US developed a Sherman tank with a rocket launcher called the T40 Whizbang.Ĭaptain Billy's Whiz Bang was a popular American cartoon and gag magazine from the 1920s and 1930s. The Germans' 77mm field guns fired shells at a velocity greater than the speed of sound the soldiers would hear the shell "whizz" by before the heard the gun fire, hence the name. "Whizz bang" (or "whiz bang") was a nickname among Allied troops in WWI for high-powered German ordnance. Most of the lyrics seem improvised, and not much of it made it to "Butterflies for Brains." However, that doesn't mean they're bad there's something satisfying about this little word sketch, and it has an appealling kind of wistfulness, perhaps partly attributable to the fiddle, that is lacking on the more jaunty single release. Thi s is an earlier version of "Butterflies for Brains" it was recorded for Peel in 1989 but unreleased until 2005.
