strange
strange
Thought I knew you well
Thought I had read the sky
Thought I had read a change
in your eyes
She felt like she knew this person before they met and he/she reminded her of someone she knew and that's what drew her to this person.
so strange
Woke up to a world
that I am
not a part
except when I can
play it's stranger
Then she realized that this person has no connection to her. Sure, maybe this person has some striking resemblance outside or inside of a person in Scarlet's life that she misses or lost or whatnot, but this person does not have that pull that Scarlet has and it's quite heartbreaking.
After all what were you
really looking for and I wonder
when will I learn
Blue isn't red
everybody knows this
and I wonder
when will I learn
when will I learn
guess I was in
Deeper than I thought I was
if I have enough love
for the both of us
She understands that she's been kind of silly, thinking that this person would have a connection or pull to her when this person is showing no interest.
"just stay"
you said
"we'll build a nest"
so I left my
Life
Tried on your
friends
Tried on your
opinions
So when the Bridges froze
and you
did not come home
I put our snowflake
under a microscope
Well he/she gave in to this pull that Scarlet was placing on him and now she became sort of like "Honey" to him. Very passive, very "whatever you want" and she isn't liking it so she is really trying to figure out what this really is.
After all what was I
really looking for and I wonder
when will I learn
Maybe my wish
knew better than I did
and I wonder
when will I learn
when will I learn
guess I was in
Deeper than I thought I was
if I have enough love
for the both of us
so strange now I'm finally in the
Party has begun
it's not like I can't feel you still
but strange
what I will leave behind
you call me one more
time
but now I must
be leaving
She's thinking, "Well, now I have him but I'm not fullflled by this." and she knows that although she did not waste any of her time with this person because she is well aware that everyone has an importance, she knows that it's time to end this and she leaves him/her.
Here's Tori's description of it:
On STRANGE, Scarlet's journey takes her to the sites of some of the last stands of the native American people, including Little Big Horn. From there she journeys on through the Bad Lands. "Scarlet has taken on the beliefs of her lovers and on another level those of her country. But she's begun to question them. We are taught that America stands for democracy. But that's not what she's seeing."
-- Scarlet's Walk bio
"Strange comes, I think, in the cold and the ice and the snow. There's a beauty to it that's always, um...made me fall in love, I guess. I can fall in love in the snow and have done many times. (laughs) I guess it's a good thing to remember. The ice is very sexy to me. And they're blowing this ice smoke back and forth. That's what, anyway, that's what it does for me. So, yeah, I could fall in love in the snow and have done many times. And so, I guess Scarlet's falling in love in the snow here and she, uhh, she follows him. Maybe she's in love with a moment in time, as much as anything else. And maybe part of it is a memory of someone that she's breathing into him. But at a certain point, she...she knows that, umm, she can't be the only one that has enough love here."
