Thru The Graveyard
BRNS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'd like to talk to you, tell me 'bout your past live.
I wanna know 'bout you, where's the place where you hide?
I'd like to meet you, in the middle of the night.
Go for a walk, through the graveyard
and taste the rain.
The lyrics of BRNS's Thru The Graveyard paints a picture of a person's desire to connect with someone deeply in the middle of the night. They yearn to converse intimately with this person and know them beyond surface-level interactions. The lyrics showcase a desire to connect with this person on a deeper level and know the place where they hide. The phrase "way across the midnight" seems to suggest that the singer desires to be with this person in the darkest parts of the night where secrets are revealed, and intimacy is heightened. This desire for a deep connection with the person is further highlighted in the lyrics "I'd like to talk to you, tell me 'bout your past life."
In the chorus, the lyrics take a different turn and invite the listener on an adventure through the graveyard. It seems like the singer wishes to take the person on a walk through the graveyard and taste the rain, a metaphorical gesture that could suggest the embrace of sadness and the willingness to share experiences with each other, including the painful ones. The graveyard is usually associated with death and sadness, and the rain could indicate tears or emotions. Thus, this invitation to walk through the graveyard and taste the rain could be seen as an invitation to feel emotions, to share experiences and break barriers.
