hmm that's interesting maybe it's a reference to his new son? he didn't want him or something... & bag of golden brown is heroin maybe he was fucked out of it when he got her pregnant & wishes it hadn't happened

Actually KendoKai, I believe that it would be more accurate the line, "It's in your frequency" as referring to the woman's menstrual cycle. Either that or the rhythm of her body, like her essence of existing and the pattern she is in. This could mean that she is going really fast in a reference to burning brightly and dying quickly or she is slowing down...he doesn't specify. But those two interpretations make a lot more sense to me.

first i had thought that "post blue" means "post misery,sadness" or any feeling associated with blue. Hitting very much the bottom maybe?. But now i totally agree with pregnancy. (at least for now:) But family tree and pills just fit in. He is comforting his girlfriend i guess. (at least maybe?) Maybe it is in me.

haha , typo corrections are always welcome :) Sepherenia : could be , i think it's golden brown (heroin) cuz the whole "tap the vein that bleeds" makes me think of drugs :) If someone has the official lyrics and can verify this text , please do !

sorry sepherenia, bag of golden brown refers to alcohol. because it is usually wrapped in a paper bag. i thought that was an obvious one
