Exploring the depths of a tumultuous relationship, "Push Pull" delves into the emotional struggle between closeness and distance. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of two people caught in a cycle of attraction and resistance, symbolized by the repeated actions of pushing and pulling. This dynamic creates an internal conflict, where one person feels deeply connected yet unable to fully embrace the relationship due to fear or uncertainty. The imagery of climbing up in the air and building a constellation lair suggests striving for an ideal state of union that remains just out of reach, highlighting the complex dance of intimacy that defines human connections.
Push Pull
Lyrics
You were young and you'd start
With a reverence unimpaired
There was an echo far and faint
Beneath the air remained
You were young and you'd stare
Where my limbs hung far and fair
Make a ladder of what folds
And climb up in the air
You push and you pull and you tell yourself no
It's like when you lie down, the veins grow in slow
You push and you pull but you'd never know
I crept up in you and I wouldn't let go
There was no light and I swear
I could see your raring fear
I heard the plains moaning back
I saw the thunder roll o'er black
There was no light and I swear
We sat still in our fear
Make a ladder of what folds
And climb up in the air
You push and you pull and you tell yourself no
It's like when you lie down, the veins grow in slow
You push and you pull but you'd never know
I crept up in you and I wouldn't let go
(And I)
Carve out the spaces (and I)
Imparted graces (and I)
I couldn't shake it (and I)
I built a constellation lair
Out of the moles that hovered there
A fever billowed with the wind
And I bade the sky therein
I built a constellation lair
Out of the moles that hovered there
Make a pardon of what knows
And climb up in the air
You push and you pull and you tell yourself no
It's like when you lie down, the veins grow in slow
You push and you pull but you'd never know
I crept up in you and I wouldn't let go
You push and you pull and you tell yourself no
It's like when you lie down, the veins grow in slow
You push and you pull but you'd never know
I crept up in you and I wouldn't let go
