this is a beautiful song indeed, i sometimes go to sleep with this on, but isn't the first verse about necrophilia? don't get me wrong, the song is awesome, but the thing about getting a bone where his love lies beneath the leaves is a little strange. or maybe im just insanely misguided.
@ManiaKattaK Well the way I always interpreted it is that he's talking about *metaphorically* digging up his loved one to find something, a part of her -- hence the bone, part of her dead body -- that he can keep as a memory. I think that would be coherent with the line about saving it all on photographs.
i dont get how these lyrics refer to necrophilia? bone could mean anything

@ManiaKattaK If you think it's about necrophilia, then the second verse applies as well, still talking about the "bone":
"I'm going to dig a deep hole and crack open this bone...."
Or it could just be an innocent metaphor for something, who knows :)

@ManiaKattaK its saying he misses her so much that he wants to dig up her bones so he can feel like he is with her..
