All I can tell you about this song is that there is a theme of star signs going on. Otherwise, I have not got a bloody clue. It's one of those where the memory of writing it and whatever feelings prompted it have floated away into the mists of time, so this one means whatever you want it to mean.
Tell me what it means :D
lyrics
Don't you know how blue can go,
Sea struck to silence,
Don't you know how she died?
Don't you know how to talk?
East wind swept in rough on the beach,
Oh concern yourself with spirits and false angels,
And transparencies mask,
Or don't.
Never trust an air sign,
And don't look at ladies too long,
Or tears on your pillows, lighting your face,
Tell too many stories,
Tell me too much,
How much do I want to know?
Really want to know?
Well we're under anaesthetic rights,
Don't you know how to lie?
Don't you know how to die?
West wind swept in sweet on my cheek,
Explicit riches to cry for into ruin,
And trancing your fire sign,
For now.
Never trust the west wind,
And the sparkle of the star dance,
Or blood on your pillow, drowing your fear,
Will make pretty pictures,
Discov'ring your name,
How much do I want to know?
Really want to know?
Never trust an air sign,
And don't look at ladies too long
Or tears on your pillows, lighting your face,
Tell too many stories,
Tell me too much,
How much do I want to know?
Really want to know?
