We live on a mountain
Right at the top
There's a beautiful view
From the top of the mountain
Every morning I walk towards the edge
And throw little things off
Like car parts, bottles and cutlery
Or whatever I find lying around

[Pre-Chorus 1]
It's become a habit
A way to start the day

[Chorus]
I go through all this
Before you wake up
So I can feel happier
To be safe up here with you

[Chorus]
I go through all this
Before you wake up
So I can feel happier
To be safe up here with you

[Verse 2]
It's early morning
No one is awake
I'm back at my cliff
Still throwing things off
I listen to the sounds they make
On their way down
I follow with my eyes till they crash
I imagine what my body would sound like
Slamming against those rocks

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And when it lands
Will my eyes be closed or open?

[Chorus]
I go through all this
Before you wake up
So I can feel happier
To be safe up here with you

[Chorus]
I go through all this
Before you wake up
So I can feel happier
To be safe up here with you

[Chorus]
I go through all this
Before you wake up
So I can feel happier
To be safe up here with you

Björk explains: "I guess that song is about when you're in a relationship and it's going really well and you're really happy and maybe you have given up parts of yourself. To fall in love and be in a relationship for a long time is like giving a lot of parts of you away because the relationship becomes more important than you as individuals. It's a bit of a tricky balance. I think everyone in a relationship needs to know not to forget themselves..." (from an interview by David Hemingway)

Björk once said that this song is about that stage in a relationship where the initial excitement is gone, and staying together becomes a conscious choice. Nobody else has dared to explore that theme much, let alone turn it into such a bombastic song.

When the pulsating synth comes in on the hook I just can't. This is one of the most unsettling, morbid, and tragically beautiful whirlwinds of eclectic sound I have ever heard. The disturbing imagery. The way the strings contrast the quantized drums and synthesizers. The way Bjork erupts on the chorus. The breakdown when she repeats "safe again" is so full of warmth and longing you can almost feel the desire emanating from the song. It's like as the anticipation for this reunion with her lover builds so does the music. Perfection

I’ve always viewed this song as a confession of all of the ugly, angry, and destructive things we do that we would never let our loved ones see. In the first verse, we set up a scene where Bjork and her lover are pictured at a mountaintop where Bjork is throwing things off of a cliff, possibly eluding to self destructive and even self harming behavior. The chorus appears to be the core of this confession, or perhaps the things she longs to tell her lover but cannot. She wishes she could say that her world is breaking and they are the thing keeping her together and making her feel safe. The opening few lines of the second verse always send chills up my spine somehow. “It’s early morning...No one is awake.” It sounds like something we’re not supposed to hear as the listener. During the closing lines of the second verse, these confessions of self destruction turn to suicidal ideation in a seamless shift in metaphor. She wonders what would happen if she chose to end things instead of wasting them away bit by bit. When the beat kicks in more during the second chorus, I’ve always seen it as her lover waking up and Bjork going back to see them, feeling “safe again”, as those two lines repeat.

@sherryscooter242

4y↑100

My interpretation of the lyrics...for some of us, we never know if we're going to find a soul mate. When we do, and it exceeds our wildest expectations, we're both in awe and afraid. Afraid that we're going to screw it up by not being perfect enough, not being happy enough, not being as amazing as our partner, etc. So we do this morning routine of getting out our aggression by throwing a mini tantrum where no one else can see or hear us. This helps us to NOT express that insecure rage at our partner. They never have to know our fears because we're taking it out in solitude. For the rest fo the day, we can go back towards being the loving compassionate person in relationship we strive to be.

@@bolddaredevil2648 it sounds like a domestic abuse situation. Björk is throwing away car parts and bottles and other things that her partner can’t hit her with so she “can feel safe again”.
The suicidal thoughts in the lyrics about jumping off the cliff support my interpretation.
Often artists won’t reveal the True meanings of their songs if they’re too personal.
When asked about the song in an interview she started by saying “I guess” so you can tell she was making up an interpretation for the public.
She also may have been worried about being targeted for “provocative and harmful lyrical content” as some might see them as, as opposed to honesty and difficulty made into a beautiful song.

It's a really emotional experience to come back to a song or artist after years of not hearing it. Listening to this now I can understand how influential this was for me in high school. The melody of the electric piano over the bass line in the beginning. Somehow that was ingrained in the way I would forever write melodies. It's a pretty intense feeling to realize this after all of these years.

It would be fascinating to see someone like her continue to make music well into her twilight years, considering she's been making music since the tender age of 11. There's not very many people who spend an entire lifetime making music; 3/4 or half their lives, maybe, but rarely is it done throughout the entire duration of their existence on this planet.

@RunesaelFlynn

Personally, I feel like this could be a song about being in a good relationship after surviving abuse. Going to the edge of a mountain, throwing the old things, the frightening things, or just... whatever... you've got hanging onto you after you've survived, away, over the cliff. Imagining how things could have been if you'd stayed. That way, when you come back, you can appreciate being happy and safe in your new life. Might just be me.

@rebeccabollea

It happened to me many times to have nightmares while I was sleeping near my partner and to wake up before him and feel desperate. It's a strange coincidence the way she describes pretty much the same thing, but with the metaphor of the mountain and throwing things off.
I also remember when I used to listen to this song when I was 14 years old. I used to dance on it, I couldn't get the meaning and I didn't exactly know the lyrics at the time, but dancing on it got me a strange feeling, I felt like it wasn't such a danceable song. Later, after some years, I read the lyrics, the interviews where she talks about the meaning and I understood. Now I can't dance anymore, I just cry. And I don't even know if it's for sadness, or sensibility or love or wisdom, but I feel something very deep while I listen to it. Björk is one of the best songwriter ever, and people sometimes forget about this, because they concentrate more about her voice, arrangements, music videos, visuals etc. But I think that even if you take this song alone singed only with a piano, it remains a masterpiece.
