Lyrics for Ms by alt-J from An Awesome Wave
We can’t lose touch but we can let go, a blue and white gun made from Lego.
All the vowels vow to hold your name, keep your estate clean of me.
I’ve pillowed you so many times this week,
Close eyes, open, close again, forget and fall asleep.
The dark seeks dark,
The dark seeks dark,
Darker,
Darker,
The nights of all my youth pressed into one glass of water.
Scattered truths, bewildered beast boohoos, we have our weight: ten thousand ladybirds.
All the vowels vow to guard your name, keep your estate clean, happy.
Some things lie too deep for tears to well,
Close eyes open, close again, feel as my body spells
Dark seeks dark,
Dark seeks dark,
Darker,
Darker,
The shadow burns across like embers tide paper.
Darker, darker, darker, darker.

I feel like this song is about losing someone after you get married and have kids: All the vowels vow to guard your name - Changing your name Blue and white gun made from Lego - Kids Keep your estate clean of me - Moving in together Bewildered beasts boohoos - The children being sad and scared Keep your estate clean, happy - Wanting your partner to keep the children happy It also had a tone that feels sad and happy, sort of like losing someone and masking it for someone else. The happier tone towards the end could also show how things heal with time.
