    Lyrics:
    pull the plug in September
    i don’t want to die in June
    i’d like to start planning my funeral i’ve got work to do
    pull the plug, make it painless
    i don’t want a violent end
    don’t say that you’ll always love me cause you know i’d bleed myself dry for
    you over and over again
    doomsday is close at hand
    i’ll book the marching band
    to play as you speak
    i’ll feel like throwing up
    you’ll sit and stare like
    a goddamn machine
    i’d like to plan out my part in this but you’re such a narcissist you’ll probably
    do it next week
    i don’t get a choice in the matter why would i? it’s only the death of me only the
    death of me
    pull the plug but be careful
    i don’t wanna die too soon
    i think there’s good in you somewhere i’ll hang on ‘til the chaos is through
    doomsday is close at hand
    i’ll book the marching band
    to play as you speak
    i’ll feel like throwing up you’ll sit and stare like
    a goddamn machine
    i’d like to plan out my part in this but you’re such a narcissist you’ll probably
    do it next week i don’t get a choice in the matter why would i? it’s only
    the death of me was so quiet
    no friends and family allowed
    only my murderer, you
    and the priest who told you to go to hell and the funny thing is i would’ve
    married you if you’d have stuck around
    i feel more free than i have in years
    six feet in the ground
    doomsday is close at hand
    i booked the marching band
    to play as you speak
    i feel like throwing up
    you sit and stare like a goddamn machine
    i’d have liked to plan out my part in this but you’re such a narcissist
    that you did it on halloween
    i had no choice in the matter
    why would i? it’s only the death of me

    It's highly possible that my interpretation of this is entirely not what these creators intended, but there's clearly so much thought and effort and passion put into this project that I want to explain what I got out of a few elements of the video:
    The moment when she puts the mask on (3:42) could be when she decides to put on a face/persona to convince him to feel bad for her (which doesn't work enough to make him stay because he thinks she's faking it and/or because he's a jerk). Through the process of trying to express to him how hurt she is and trying to convince herself to not let him get under her skin (or to get him out from under her skin, I guess, because he already has gotten under her skin), she "dies" like their relationship -- that's why she's still a skeleton when the mask comes off.
    I LOVE the part with her stabbing the pomegranate (2:34) and how that connects to Persephone and Hades -- the motifs of death, betrayal, heartbreak, etc.
    The lighting, OH MY GOD, the lighting -- the dark hallway with a light at the beginning rather than the end, the blinding light through the windows, the fluorescent dullness of the classroom, the sunset alone on the bleachers, the sunrise with him on the bleachers, the soft glow of the church, the dusty brightness of the funeral, the clarity of the field that fades to black, the spotlight on the stage in front of an empty theater -- it all expresses her feelings so well and (despite, or perhaps because of the variety in the intensity of the lighting) ties the whole story together visually.
    There's so much specificity that communicates such clear emotion, both lyrically, instrumentally, and visually -- I could go on and on about how well this is crafted.
    Every choice in this song and music video (and in all my ghosts, which is one of my new favorite songs) is so brilliant. The fact that music like this exists restores my faith in humanity; I can't wait for the album!

    • @endor8witch
      @endor8witch 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      i think the death mask and her face painted is her coming to terms, he's left her and she's wallowing in self-pity in the ending of their relationship. she's like a walking skeleton, feeling empty.

    [Verse 1]
    Pull the plug in September
    I don't wanna die in June
    I’d like to start planning my funeral
    I've got work to do
    Pull the plug, make it painless
    I don't want a violent end
    Don’t say that you'll always love me
    'Cause you know I'd bleed myself dry for you
    Over and over again
    [Chorus]
    Doomsday is close at hand
    I'll book the marching band to play as you speak
    I'll feel like throwin' up
    You'll sit and stare like a goddamn machine
    I’d like to plan out my part in this
    But you’re such a narcissist
    You'll probably do it next week
    I don’t get a choice in the matter
    Why would I? It's only the death of me
    Only the death of me
    [Verse 2]
    Pull the plug, but be carеful
    I don't wanna die too soon
    I think there's good in you somеwhere
    I’ll hang on 'til the chaos is through
    [Chorus]
    Doomsday is close at hand
    I'll book the marching band to play as you speak
    I'll feel like throwin' up
    You'll sit and stare like a goddamn machine
    I'd like to plan out my part in this
    But you're such a narcissist
    You'll probably do it next week
    I don't get a choice in the matter
    Why would I? It's only the death of me
    [Bridge]
    It was so quiet
    No friends and family allowed
    Only my murderer, you, and the priest who told you to go to Hell
    And the funny thing is I would've married you
    If you'd have stuck around
    I feel more free than I have in years
    Six feet in the ground
    [Chorus]
    Doomsday is close at hand
    I'll book the marching band
    To play as you speak
    I feel like throwin' up
    You sit and stare like a goddamn machine
    I'd have liked to plan out my part in this
    But you're such a narcissist
    That you did it on Halloween
    I had no choice in the matter
    Why would I? It's only the death of me

    Wow, the part of your funeral is absolutely impressive. The change of the melody, the recording, the amazing control of your voice, the intensity and the bad milk of the message leaves you wanting to send the bastard who probably hurt you to hell. Oh my gosh! I think I'm not the only one who wants more.

    This is such an emotionally perfect song. It's the exact feeling of breaking up with someone who you love but who you know simply doesn't (or can't) care about you. Just so futile and maudlin and frustrating. 10/10 absolutely no notes.

  • @theres_no_guarantees
    @theres_no_guarantees 2 ปีที่แล้ว +41

    My interpretation of this song is that she's going through grief, and she's not the one dying. The boyfriend who was always there for her is going to die soon, maybe because of suicide or illness. She doesn't want him to go, and there's some much pain. She's angry because he wouldn't stay for her, but he would stay forevermore for him. She wants everyone to celebrate him and say goodbye to his life, but he doesn't seem to notice her efforts. When she sings, "I don't get a choice in the matter, it's only the death of me," she means it metaphorically. Sure, she's not dying, but he is. Then, he's gone. She wants to hang on and make sure he doesn't get a bad name, but it's hard when he left her alone. She doesn't have a choice when he dies, ultimately hurting her with a wave of grief like death. If he would've stayed, she would've married him, but once he's gone, she feels free. It hurts, and there's no way to recover from it, but there's comfort and freedom beyond it. It hurts that the preacher says he's going to hell. It aches how he died on a holiday. Grief is wounding, and it can cause so much despair that it feels like death.
    But, I don't know. That's just how I saw it.

    • @LemonSte
      @LemonSte ปีที่แล้ว +27

      that's actually a pretty interesting take, I like it. I think though she wrote it more about just the despair of loving someone who is completely selfish, and their final act (cheating, leaving, etc) causes such pain and then numbness it feels like dying.

  • @An_Arbitrary_Miscellany

    There was a moment in the 90s when the depth and talent for women singer-songwriter alt-rockers were phenomenal. Liz Phair, Juliana Hatfield, PJ Harvey, Aimee Mann, Fiona Apple... many others. It was such an incredible period of themes and power and intelligent lyrics, as well as astonishing melody and music. I say this only because since then I've very rarely felt that in discovering a new artist. Definitely feels like you'd fit right amongst that illustrious pantheon.

    @3:34 I heard this for the first time today. Me and my ex of 4 years were supposed to get married. It was so toxic, and broke me so badly that I thought the only way out was to commit. So I overdosed one night when he pushed me too far. @3:34 made me realise that if he wouldn't have did me the favor of leaving soon after that, I would have married him. And been stuck in that horrible life, cause I couldn't walk away. I truly believe I would have died if he stayed. For the first time in years, I believe that I can live again, and I am free. I would have found freedom in disguise in death. But now I'm understanding I'm free.
