To the port I see the lighthouse through the sleet and the rain.
And I wish for one more day to give my love and repay debts, but the morning finds our bodies washed up thirty miles west. They say that the captain stays fast with the ship through still and storm. But this ain't the dakota; the water's cold. Won't have to fight for long. This story's old, this is the end but it goes on and on until we disappear. Calm me and let me this is the calm taste the salt you breathed while you were underneath.
I spoke the words after the storm but never gave a thought to what they all could mean. A funeral keeps both of us apart. You know washed up on the beach that you are not alone. I need you like water in my lungs. Calm me and let me taste this is the calm the salt you breathed while you were underneath. That she left due to something he said. In this verse he is repenting for what he said and sees that it completely demolished their relationship.
The vessel groans The ocean pressures its frame To the port I see the lighthouse Through the sleet and the rain And I wish for one more day To give my love and repay debts The morning finds our bodies washed up thirty miles west Implies that they are nothing without their love.
They say that the captain stays fast with the ship Through still and storm But this ain't the Dakota And the water's cold Won't have to fight for long Refers to the SS Dakota of which sank years ago. He alludes to the wellknown tradition of captains dying within their sinking ships. He can either be saying that he will not uphold to dying as love dies or figuratively dying as love dies, as in not experiencing life anymore or taking anymore risks in fear of being hurt again. This is the end This story's old but it goes On and on until we disappear The dying of love is an archetypal theme that has happened before them and will happen after them.
This is the calm Calm me and let me taste the Salt you breathed while you were underneath Suggests she drowned. Really means that she feels the sting of his words. We are drowning I am the one who haunts your Dreams of mountains sunk below the sea Refers to her "resting place" or life without him that she pretends to feel will be better without him. However, he haunts those dreams by being a constant in her thoughts. After the storm I spoke the words but never Gave a thought to what they all could mean He is either referring to his mean words that got them into this horrid entanglement or said "I love you" but never really gave it a second thought as the truth but now sees that he did in her absence.
Rest in the deep I know that this is what you want A funeral keeps both of us apart Metaphorically, she died while underwater and a funeral is hosted in her honor. However, it truly means that the death of their love is keeping them apart. This is the end This story's old but it goes On and on until we disappear This is the calm Calm me and let me taste The salt you breathed while you were underneath We are breathless I am the one who haunts your Dreams of mountains sunk below the sea After the storm I spoke the words but never Gave a thought to what they all could mean Rest in the deep I know that this is what you want A funeral keeps both of us apart Washed up on the beach You know that you are not alone I need you like water in my lungs This is the end paige-e on May 26, Link.
General Comment Sierra, I had someone in my immediate family die about 2 weeks ago with a drug addiction I mean it does describe the exact feelings.
Brand New is amazing. Supurman on April 27, Link. Supurman, I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for your comment- it really is amazing how well Brand New described it.
Song Meaning So, as to the question of the title, since I think the lyrical meaning is well-worn territory, with the all-but-certainly intended meaning rehashed a billion times on these pages I'm not sure I buy the assertion someone made that "Play Crack the Sky" is a reference to lightning. I also tend to think there's no way it refers to the rock band named Crack the Sky. However, there is a song and album of that title released in '87 by this guy named Mylon LeFevre. The lyrics run thus: "Sometimes at night I close my eyes and wish, Sometimes I wonder if I'd ever be missed if you came for me, If you came for me.
I've never asked you for a whole lot of things, I've never begged you for the riches of kings, But I've one request and I hold it up to you Come on and crack the sky for me, Come on and crack the sky and take me home, Take me home, Come on and crack the sky for me, Come on and crack the sky and take me home, Take me home tonight.
I know you've got me where you want me to be, I know you've got a plan to use in me but I long for you, I long for you.
So, now I'll work until you're ready for me, I don't know if I can guarantee that I'll never cry, never try to get to you. It kind of applies to the literal level of the narrative given by the lyrics; sailors who are facing their death. All that's left for him is for God to "crack the sky and take me home tonight.
Utmost apologies if all of that has been gone through before, there are so many comments for this that I could never read them all to see. And of course that interpretation of the title is up for debate. But it makes way more sense to me than any other attempts I've seen to nail down what Lacey meant with it. You're absolutely spot on with the reference to that song, and I have no idea how you managed to stumble across that without the back story.
However it has nothing at all to do with Jesse liking the song, or wanting it at his funeral or anything, actually the title is just intended to be a really obscure in-joke sort of thing. I've got a recording of one of his solo shows where he explains the story behind the title, I'll try and paraphrase it as best I can 'cause he goes off on a huge parallel story about it!
Jesse then goes on to say, when him and John had a band together in high school, they had a job working as stage-hands, for a christian group that toured round shopping centres etc and had musical performances and also people doing religious stuff, preaching to people or whatever.
And in exchange for helping to set the stage up, they allowed Jesse and John's band to do a half hour set. But Jesse says he found it funny, because of all the 'bible thumpers' Jesse's words, not mine So, one time after they'd finished setting up, Jesse and John went out and just sat in the middle of this empty car park that the stage was in to see how funny it was watching the band playing to no one. And when the guy came on, John realised that he recognised the singer, and it was the Mylon LeFevre dude.
Trying just to forget about the past stuff. But John stands up, from the middle of the empty car park and shouts - just as the guy was stepping up to the mic - "Hey, play 'Crack the Sky! Jesse says that you could just see the guy's spirit break, that the only person around in the whole place was someone who recognised him from his old life. Jesse says that for some reason, this was about the funniest thing he had ever witnessed.
So that's the story behind it! General Comment my favorite line is I am the one who haunts your dreams of mountains sunk beneath the sea this line has such a powerful image that goes with it and i wonder every time i hear this song if someone else gets this empty feeling in them like i do.
Yes, it's a moving image Like a tumultuous, bipolar relationship
