Lyrics:
When the violet hour is soft upon your eyes
When the wine runs out and all we have is time
Out of all the broken tongues you hear tonight
I hope I say it right
Blue corduroy ’89
Oh I was a pleasant boy, soft and mild
When a foreign place don’t make you feel alive
And a patient heart forgets how to be kind
It’s a burden that will carry through your life
And god knows that ain’t right
Only god knows if he’s right
Fields black as coal spring to life
And I have dreams of a bitter war in a peaceful time
When you realize it’s not your fight
And you can’t avoid a chance to reconcile
Lay em down, the stones, the stones will never cry
No stone will ever cry
No stone will every cry
When the poison fruit tastes sweeter than you like
It’s a fertile place to propagate a lie
While you’re waiting for the nausea to subside
Let’s drink to what is right
Let’s share a drink tonight
Spend it in wartime and save up in peace
Love will be all that you need

I never comment on RUclips, but I need to now. I have been listening to SYML for years...my favorite artist by the way. I still don't understand why it isn't more popular.

OpenAi analysis:
First Strophe:
When the violet hour is soft upon your eyes
When the wine runs out and all we have is time
Out of all the broken tongues you hear tonight
I hope I say it right
This strophe sets the scene for the song, with the speaker hoping to communicate effectively despite being in a foreign place. The reference to the "violet hour" suggests a moment of reflection and introspection. The line "when the wine runs out and all we have is time" highlights the importance of making the most of the present moment.
Second Strophe:
Blue corduroy ’89
Oh I was a pleasant boy, soft and mild
This strophe introduces the reference to "Blue corduroy '89" which may have some personal significance to the speaker. The speaker describes themselves as a "pleasant boy, soft and mild," which could suggest a simpler or more innocent time in their past.
Third Strophe:
When a foreign place don’t make you feel alive
And a patient heart forgets how to be kind
It’s a burden that will carry through your life
And god knows that ain’t right
Only god knows if he’s right
This strophe addresses the feeling of disconnection that can come from being in a foreign place. The speaker reflects on how a lack of connection can lead to a loss of kindness and empathy, and how this can be a burden to carry throughout life. The line "only God knows if he's right" suggests that there may be a higher power that knows what is truly best for the speaker.
Fourth Strophe:
Fields black as coal spring to life
And I have dreams of a bitter war in a peaceful time
This strophe could refer to the idea that even in moments of peace, there can be internal conflicts or struggles. The "fields black as coal" could represent the speaker's own state of mind, and the idea of them "springing to life" could suggest a moment of realization or enlightenment.
Fifth Strophe:
When you realize it’s not your fight
And you can’t avoid a chance to reconcile
Lay em down, the stones, the stones will never cry
No stone will ever cry
This strophe addresses the idea of letting go of things that are not meant to be, and taking the opportunity to reconcile and make peace. The line "lay them down, the stones, the stones will never cry" could be a metaphor for letting go of grudges or negative feelings, and recognizing that they hold no power over the speaker.
Sixth Strophe:
When the poison fruit tastes sweeter than you like
It’s a fertile place to propagate a lie
While you’re waiting for the nausea to subside
Let’s drink to what is right
Let’s share a drink tonight
This strophe touches upon the idea of false information or temptation, and how it can be tempting to give into it even when it goes against what is right. The line "let's drink to what is right" could suggest a moment of celebration and reflection, and a commitment to what is truly right and good.
Final Strophe:
Spend it in wartime and save up in peace
Love will be all that you need
This final strophe is a message of hope, with the speaker encouraging the listener to focus on love and to appreciate the moments of peace in life. The line "spend it in wartime and save up in peace" could suggest the idea of making the most of both the difficult and the good times. The speaker is suggesting that despite the hardships and difficulties of life, love is the one thing that will always be enough. Despite the trials of wartime, the speaker suggests that it is important to save and cherish love, as it will be what sustains us during the more peaceful times. Ultimately, the message seems to be that love is the most important thing in life, and that it is what will help us to endure and overcome any challenges we may face.
Do you agree with these? Any new ideas?
