If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song -
I love that song

satan

It brought tears to my eyes.
*satin -
The words confuse me. The girl wants to be buried with roses. That sounds and looks pretty. But then, she wants to be dug up and suck into some river? I dunno, maybe it's metaphorical xP

Apparently it's a bout rape I don't think it is
I sang it for the talent show I got throw to the seocnd round the band perry is so good
I spthink it may have been the song that got me through cause I cnat sing -
I think she means lay her down on a bed of roses so her coffin has roses and it has satin inside and the coffin is to be sent. Down the river at dawn
-
I kind of pictured her on some raft being pushed to sea, surrounded by roses, but I could be wrong. ^^
Whoa, rape? I didn't know that, I hope that isn't the case.
I'm glad you had a good experience performing it~ -
It's not about rape. It's about a girl thinking dieing is the answer to becoming famous. Confirmed by this stanza here:
A penny for my thoughts, oh, no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin' -
Yeah it was fun to sing thanks
Eh that's what it said on a couple of sites and an analysis but I doubt it
It's about how short life is and to make sure what you want to say is said you never know when you will regret it
That's what I pictured but lay was on a river -
What I've never did is done "

Marco, you're making me want to cry.
-
I'm sorry, Armin! It made me cry too. Some of the lyrics really... resonate with me.
-
I think she means that she wants to kill herself.
You know, like the thing with the knife?
And then the thing where it's like "Funny when you're dead how people start listening" is that no one cared about her before.
And that even though there's this guy who loves her, she still wants to take her life.
Pretty sure it's about suicide . -
Oh yeah never thought about it like that
I get that part
