    Such a powerful song about an abusive, dependant relationship. Her self cry for help; "there is a heart in here, where is the heart in here" shows how she wants to be strong and get away for herself but is so dependant on her abuser she finds it easier to be 'silenced' and waits for her abuser to come back. very sad song and depicts the emotions of some types of domestic abuse very well. great to see meaningful, challenging songs are still being made among the majority of other dullness.

      It's about much more than murder. It's about the pain of betrayal. Mental as well as Physical abuse. She was expecting romance. Instead, savagely Murdered. Although her body lay dead. Her love for him held on hoping for his return.
      No matter how Abusive he was to her.

    I introduced my ex to Little Green Cars about 6 years ago, it was a beautiful time and we loved this album as if it was part of our special bond at that time.
    Sadly we ended up breaking up and we didnt see each other for almost 2 years.
    Ironically the next time we saw each other was at another Little Green Cars concert, except this time we were complete strangers as if we had never met.
    It's amazing how now I only associate the sad songs with the memories we shared.

Now I'm watching this and fell in love even more. I understand the song even more and its beautiful, i can't have enough of the meaning of this video its so melancholy but in a happy way at the end. i loved it.

    Down to the river to silence me, love took me down to the river to silence me, [x3]
    My love took me down to the river to silence me,
    And when he left I could not speak.
    I lay on the ground I tried to scream,
    But no sound did come out, I could only bleed blue.
    I waited for him 'till the frost did come,
    My skin it turned blue and my body was numb.
    But my heart it burned out 'till it was no more,
    Still I wait on the ground I don't know what for.
    There, there is a heart in here.
    Where, where is the heart in here?
    This love's killing me but I want it to.
    So long you're gone, just like I always knew.
    But I'm still here waiting for you.
    But I'm still here waiting for you.
    My love took me down to the river to silence me.
    And when he left I could not speak.
    And what he said to me I can never say.
    Because it's breaking my heart to this very day.
    There, there is a heart in here.
    Where, where is the heart in here?
    This love's killing me but I want it to.
    So long you're gone, just like I always knew.
    But I'm still here waiting for you.
    But I'm still here waiting for you.
    Down to the river to silence me, love took me down to the river to silence me,
    There, there is a heart in here.
    Where, where is the heart in here?
    This love's killing me but I want it to.
    So long you're gone, just like I always knew.
    But I'm still here waiting for you.
    But I'm still here waiting for you.
    Here waiting for you.
    Here waiting for you.

    This song was so cleverly written. One example is just by the contradictions it includes; it is sung with such strong vocals yet the character portrayed in the song seems vulnerable and submissive. I wish more people would appreciate this kind of music instead of stereotyping it as 'depressing' or whatever. Beautiful song.
