The Spill Canvas - The Tide Lyrics Meaning
So I think well I kind of thought of the ones that are already posted what I'm going to post is just other possibilities
-well maybe when it talks about how dade(I think that's his name please correct me if it's not) thinks about when his dad will come home and then it says he's not well maybe the father went to war and died
-or when it alk about how the mother was bedridden maybe she was abused by her husband and she really loved him and then he left and maybe that's whay she says love is just a hoax because she loved their father but he did horrible things to her so just because you love someone doesn't mean they will love you back or not hurt you
-and dade is cool well kind of he's a total romantic like me and he just can't stop thinking how could love someone so passionately ,fully , and it endsand it's the wost because you gave yourself to that person let yourself open to thatv person more than you ever have with anyone else it was hard to do that
and that person finally came along and then it ends
and yuo get hurt
veda (I think) well all people are different and have a different mindset and priorities so she's jealous I get jealous too
maybe one day if she lived she would have grown out of it
but she didn't have that miuch confidence yeah a little immature there bnut no one is totally mature because we all have different definitions of "mature"
but getting back to the point veda. I think her mind grew up too fast because of what she had to deal with
and before she didn't even like boys but maybe because she looked up to veronica and she tried to emulate her and she lost herself while doing that
-veronica wow she has hormones who cares some people think she all about sex which that's how you see it I'm not goin' to critisize you for how you think
but maybe she's just not as deep as dade
-and idk......................
uh I guess that..............................
.............................
maybe she's kissed guys before but she's never had that chemistry or sparks and she just really wants to fel a connection with someone
-about the tide uh I never really got that one I guess it could be like a sea of bad people or something like that but I don't think it was suicide but that idea pops into my head
-actually now thinking it was everyone because I think its all of society that was the tide they grew up too fast but I don't really know if I can explain further because I don't really get it myself
-and their other I think she loved them in a bit of a crooked way that why she told them the things like love is just a hoax and "live by every word"
because when she gave them advice she was thinking about he loife and how if she could do it again she wouldnt fall in love
and she would doeverything she couldnt now
