It's weird--the song has almost moved me to tears, but I can't even say in concrete terms what it means to me. But she conveys this emotion so perfectly.

Multiple interpretations... I like yours, it's really artistic. I must say I felt the same as you first. And then I thought about "sonic nurse" as a very political album. That's what poetry is all about, emotions first, then the commitment.
