I'm madly in love with your voice, your quirkiness, and you. Every time I see you in concert I look up at you with big doe eyes and a goofy ass smile. I may be a straight girl, but for you, my dear, I'd turn.
i think this song is trying to say that's it's okay when someone...you know, someone who you loved left....for GOOD. Not bfs and gfs i mean when someone passes on....it's really quite nice, they make it seem so natural and peaceful...
I think this song is about death..."love don't cry"-don't cry for me, family and friends..."frost or flame"-buried in the cold or cremated in the fire....it's a lot of metaphors in this song( i think that's the right word for it).
@LuisTheComrade at one point in my life i used to constantly listen to Bob Marley and his lyrics, and he is one of the best musicians in my opinion ... but over time i started to listen to more music/more bands ... and I now constantly listen to the yeah yeah yeah's ... u have good taste in music , its only a matter of time till u add this to ur collection. The poetry in her lyrics are amazing !!
@purplegoldfishshark8 No, I listen to actual good music. Some of my favorite bands: The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, The Rolling Stones, Deep Purple, The Who, Bob Marley, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, John Lennon, Quee, Pink Floyd, Van Halen, U2, ZZ Top...
I'm 19 years old, I'm currently living in a world where "music" is just a fad, and I'm proud to be one of the few people like me who still listen to good music and keep the spirit of music gods and legends alive.
@LuisTheComrade Some of those bands, I will admit, are amazing. However, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs are too. But hey, everyone likes what they like and I doubt we'll ever agree. I wouldn't say music is a fad, maybe to some kids, but there are people that honestly live music and have since they were small. But really, if you don't like it, you don't have to comment. That's just my opinion, though, and I do know you are entitled to yours. Agree to disagree, I suppose.
@purplegoldfishshark8 I have to give you credit. That was a mature response considering you're debating with someone who just listed one of the most stereotypical lists of good "classic rock" possible. Don't get me wrong, most of those are good bands but they're all so expected and I will never understand why some people refuse to accept that music evolves over time. Stuff from now is not going to sound like 3 decades ago, that's not how society works. Music is beautiful because its so diverse.
Ugh. If you didn't actually have shit for ears, you'd hear that none of this is random noise. There are clearly discernible melodies and rhythms in this song, mr dadrock. Nonsense lyrics, maybe, but when this man called Robert Plant wasn't writing about sex, he had no idea what he was talking about either. And this is coming from a major Zeppelin fan. Ever watched a movie called 'This is Spinal Tap'?
@LuisTheComrade Pitty . . . you appear to be just another music snob . . . too bad . . . you obviously like a lot of great bands . . . Hopefully you mature out of music snobbery . . . it is beneficial to none . . . particularly yourself . . . 'cause it just makes you seem like an ass hole . . . which you probably are not.
@LuisTheComrade why are you even here is more appropriate. these lyrics are not nosense. there isn't aven a way to describe how beatutiful this song is to me, and to many thousands of people that like and understand the yeah yeah yeahs. why won't you troll somewhere else, and don't ruin music that people like.
@UrCommander I agree, like an awkward situation calling for someone's darkest secrets exposed, vulnerable to the world. That could represent the "skeletons" in their closet. Great point! Thank you for that! :-)

I think "skeleton" is being used as a verb. Meaning: shatter my walls, make me bare, tear me open, and leave me vulnerable.
