Landfill - by Daughter
Throw me in the landfill
Don't think about the consequences
Throw me in the dirt pit
Don't think about the choices that you make
Throw me in the water
Don't think about the splash I will create
Leave me at the altar
Knowing all the things you just escaped
Push me out to the sea
On a little boat that you made
Out of the evergreen
That you helped your father cut away
Leave me on the tracks
To wait until the morning train arrives
Don't you dare look back
Walk away, catch up with the sunrise
This is torturous
Electricity between both of us
And this is dangerous
'cause I want you so much
But I hate your guts
I hate you
So leave me in the cold
Wait until the snow covers me up
So I cannot move
So I'm just embedded in the frost
Then leave me in the rain
Wait until my clothes cling to my frame
Wipe away your tear stains
Thought you said you didn't feel pain
Well this is torturous
Electricity between both of us
And this is dangerous
'cause I want you so much
But I hate your guts
I want you so much
But I hate your guts
Well this is torturous
Electricity between both of us
And this is dangerous
'cause I want you so much
But I hate your guts
I want you so much
But I hate your guts
I think the imagery painted by this song totally captured and triggered the emotions in our inner self. It is a truly beautiful song, which relates well to us.
Well, I'm not sure of the real interpretation of the song. However, in my opinion, I think the song is about the girl being used and tossed away like a garbage by the guy. Although she pretends not to care and ask him to walk away from her life, yet she still yearns for him. She still loves him very much. It was dangerous because she cannot stop herself from continuing to love him. Her love for him will make her succumb to love, destroying herself.
So what's the moral of the story? Head up, stay strong. Fake a smile and move on. Things will get better as time passes.
