Skunk Anansie - Smashes and Trashes album
Got hung on Weak. I've come to interpret it in relation to recent and not so recent events revolving around Aria Jenneth, from Ché's limited perspective. Below the (slightly tweaked) lyrics, (un)spoken by persons to Aria, unless noted otherwise:
Utari: Lost in time I can't count the words I said when I thought they went unheard
Utari, and Ché to Utari and Aria: All of those harsh thoughts so unkind
Utari and Ché: Cause I wanted you
Utari and Nauplius: And now I sit here I'm all alone - So here sits a bloody mess
Utari: ...tears fly home
Nauplius: A circle of angels, deep in war
Nauplius and Utari: Cause I wanted you
Ché, Utari and Nauplius:
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I'm no one's fool
Weak as I am
Ché:
So what am I now, I'm love last home
I'm all of the soft words I once owned
If I opened my heart, there'd be no space for air
Cause I wanted you
Utari, Ché and Nauplius:
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I'm no ones fool
Weak as I am
Utari:
In this tainted soul
In this weakened heart
Am I too much for you?
Nauplius:
In this tainted soul
In this weakened heart
Am I too much for you?
Ché:
In this tainted soul
In this weakened heart
Am I too much for you?
Ché: Weak as I am
Utari: Weak as I am
Nauplius: Weak as I am
Ché, Nauplius and Utari: Weak as I am, am, am
Utari: Weak as I am, Am I to much for you?
Nauplius: Weak as I am, Am I to much for you?
Ché: Weak as I am, Am I to much for you?
Ché, Nauplius and Utari: Weak as I am
