Passion Flower
Bender Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where nothing is real
Smokes far away
Blows down course
Whole body absorbed
Opinion exposed
Sift powder and load
You send me
You scream and get loud
Release yourself
They're choking your air
Senses beware
A hazened rich sky your loud cry
Fast pace, slow, infecting your soul
To sink is to soar
You send me
Your passion flower
You scream and get loud
Release yourself
Your passion flower
You scream and get loud
Release yourself
It sometimes seems
Like the only way I'll get by
When my head's stretched
And my mouth is dry
And I feel undressed
To the naked eye
Pacing back and fourth
Side to side
When your head stays in the pillow, boy
Hey man it's good
To get loud alone
Don't bother getting all depressed
You're out in four
Your passion flower
You scream and get loud
Release yourself
Your passion flower
You scream and get loud
Release yourself
Your passion flower, your passion flower,
Your passion flower, your passion,
Your passion, your passion
He thinks about going somewhere
His whole life
The lyrics of Bender's song "Passion Flower" are compelling and enigmatic, as they delve into deep themes such as self-expression and personal freedom. The song appears to be about the need to break free from societal and personal constraints and be true to oneself, regardless of the consequences. In the opening lines, the singer references the feeling of being confined and concealed, as if nothing is real. This imagery paints a picture of someone who feels trapped and unable to express themselves. The reference to smoking, blowing down course, and being absorbed by a sense of opinion put forward by others, implies the singer may be struggling with addiction or being heavily influenced by those around them.
The chorus consistently repeats the lines, "You send me your passion flower, you scream and get loud, release yourself". These lines suggest a strong desire to break free and unleash one's true self without fear of judgment or reprisal. The lyric, "It sometimes seems like the only way I'll get by when my head's stretched and my mouth is dry and I feel undressed to the naked eye," implies a level of vulnerability and discomfort with one's self-image that may be hindering the singer's ability to live a fulfilling life. Ultimately, the song emphasizes the importance of being true to oneself and not letting societal conventions and perceptions limit one's potential.
