Wash.
Bon-Iver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is all we know
When thaw
Is not below us
No, can't grow up
In that iron ground
Claire, all too sore for sound
Is hardly shown
Scraped
Across the foam
Like they stole it
And oh, how they hold it
Claire, we nearly forfeit
I, I'm growing like the quickening hues
I, I'm telling darkness from lines on you
Over havens fora full and swollen morass, young habitat
All been living alone, where the ice snap and the hold clast are known
Home
We're savage high
Come
We finally cry
Oh and we don it
Because it's right
Claire, I was too sore for sight
I, we're sewing up through the latchet greens
I, un-peel keenness, honey, bean for bean
Same white pillar tone as with the bone street sand is thrown where she stashed us at
All been living alone, where the cracks at in the low part of the stoning
The lyrics to Bon-Iver's song Wash. seem to be symbolically portraying the concept of growth and evolution in one's life. The opening lines "Climb is all we know when thaw is not below us" depict the struggle of moving forward when it feels like nothing is supportive. Referring to the metaphorical iron ground, the lyrics suggest that growth may be hindered by something that is beyond our reach. Claire, who appears to be a someone with saddened emotions, is seen struggling to cope up with the noise around her.
The song continues to talk about the experiences of the singer and his acquaintances 'stolen away' and trying to hold on to something that is valuable to them. There is a sense of uncertainty and instability in the lyrics, which highlights the conflicting emotions faced by the singer as he tries to evolve like the "quickening hues." There is also a sense of togetherness and community built around the lyrics, with the line "All been living alone" suggesting that a collective of individuals is sharing these experiences together, making it slightly less lonely.
Overall, the song is a powerful depiction of the struggle to find one's place in the world and the instinctual drive to persevere despite the emotional weight of the journey.

Climb
The only thing we know how to do
Is all we know
Our only skill is to climb
When thaw
When the snow melt
Is not below us
When the snow doesn't melt underneath us
No, can't grow up
We cannot grow up in the frozen ground
In that iron ground
In the frozen ground
Claire, all too sore for sound
We are all too exhausted to make a sound
Bet
Our wager
Is hardly shown
Is barely visible
Scraped
Scratched
Across the foam
Across the sea
Like they stole it
As if they had stolen it
And oh, how they hold it
And how they cherish it
Claire, we nearly forfeit
We almost gave up
I, I'm growing like the quickening hues
I'm changing and growing like the colors of spring
I, I'm telling darkness from lines on you
I can see you even in the dark
Over havens fora full and swollen morass, young habitat
Beyond the protected habitats, there is a big problem
All been living alone, where the ice snap and the hold clast are known
We've been living isolated, and we know the dangers of ice
Home
Our home
We're savage high
We're wild and untamed
Come
Finally
We finally cry
We finally express ourselves emotionally
Oh and we don it
Oh, and we put it on
Because it's right
Because it's the right thing to do
Claire, I was too sore for sight
I was too exhausted to see
I, we're sewing up through the latchet greens
I mean, we are growing again through the greenery
I, un-peel keenness, honey, bean for bean
I unravel the intricacies of life
Same white pillar tone as with the bone street sand is thrown where she stashed us at
The same white shade as the street, where she hid us, is thrown upon us
All been living alone, where the cracks at in the low part of the stoning
We've been living alone, dealing with the problems and cracks in our path

To the person who read this,
Itโs been hard for you, I know, and it makes me sad that you donโt see yourself in the way I see you. Sometimes they are things in life that cause us to loose ourselves, and the way you have is so unimaginable painful. I miss your smile, the way your eyes light up the whole room just by the sound of your laughter. I miss the way you accepted the way you look in the mirror without cursing yourself out about how ugly you look. I miss the way you didnโt think of yourself as a failure because everyone makes mistakes, we all have flaws and we all arenโt perfect. Itโs painful to see that no one around you seems to see the pain trough your eyes, but, stranger, I do, I see how heavy your heart is and how comforting the sadness for you might be, how afraid your heart is of happiness because it disappears in the end, right? You donโt know how much impact you have in this world and itโs sad to see that your demons fight against you and want to take over you. Because you do make change, itโs something so simple and little that brightens up someoneโs whole world, it can be a small smile from your lips, the way you look at things youโre passionate about, the way you make yourself eat even though itโs been hard for you lately, the way you zoom out and go in your own world, you brighten up my world by reading this, it means a lot to me that youโre here, existing, but I donโt want you to just exist, you deserve to feel alive. You deserve to get up in the morning and feel good about yourself. You deserve to feel something- to feel every damn second alive in this lifetime. Itโs heartbreaking that you think youโre not capable of being loved, because you are, I love you trough all my words and I hope you let it happen in your heart. Love is scary, I know, maybe you heart had been broken once and since then you wanted to be rather numb than feel ever again, it hurts me how you punish yourself, does it not deserve love? Because YOU DO deserve love, please forgive yourself, itโs not your fault that the demons want to take over your beautiful heart. Youโre not a bad person for distancing yourself from others, but you deserve someone to talk to, you deserve someone to listen. I am listening, you can tell me whatโs wrong. Itโs everything, isnโt it? Thereโs something pulling your heartstrings on the ground and no one seems to understand how misunderstood you feel, itโs heartbreaking to know that I am behind the screen and canโt give you a hug, thatโs why I will give you a big warm virtual hug and send you lots of love :). You matter. You are worthy. You are loved. You deserve good things. You deserve someone to listen. You deserve to eat and drink. You deserve to feel good and alive. You deserve to smile. You deserve a hug. You deserve to be all the things you want to be, because you deserve to have and feel good things happening to you and have a fulfilled life. I know I might not know you personally but I care about you so much, I write this because I want you to stay here with me, I want you to hold on a little longer because you matter so much to me, because I will not let you give up on yourself. I want you to see that you should not give up on yourself because you DESERVE GOOD THINGS. I want you to look back on the time when you were a kid, you didnโt give up when you tried to swim for the first time, you didnโt give up when you tired to walk for the first time and fell, you never gave up on yourself, you always kept on pushing forwards, so why canโt you now? I know itโs tiring, your mentally tired, but dont your younger self deserve good things? look back at your eyes that used to be full of hope, look back on those dreams. Donโt let yourself fall, you deserve better. We will both fight, I will fight for you. I wonโt let those demons get to you. You can hold on to me, I wonโt let you down :). Whenever you feel lonely, then look at the sky, I always look at it and think about you. Yes, you, because it makes me happy that thereโs someone looking right back, maybe we canโt see each other but I can feel your presence here with me and thatโs enough for me, because I am glad your heart is beating and youโre still fighting. Youโre so much stronger thank you think, you didnโt leave your spot on this earth even if you wanted to, you belong here, even though it doesnโt feel like it, when you donโt feel like belonging than build your own home here, put all your love in it and dreams. Think of you as a star when you feel alone, you shine because your heart is good, no matter what mistake you made, no matter about the past you had, youโre one of the stars that shine bright in the universe because youโre heart is beautiful, thatโs why the demons in your mind wants to have it. As one of the stars you see others stars, maybe they have felt the same way as you do at some point in there life, but they lighten up the universe with each otherโs presence. Youโre a star for me, maybe you donโt see it yourself but I can see it, youโre beautiful from inside and out, your body is beautiful the way it is. You make me happy by reading this, you make me feel something by your presence and when you can make me feel that way than you also make other people feel that way about you too. I hope you stay for yourself and donโt let your story get written by others but by yourself, itโs your story not theirs. As you can see, I say a lot of โI hopeโ because I have hope for you even if you donโt have it for yourself, I see hope in you even though you might want to give up. Thatโs why I hope you wonโt see the world in darkness and will see it colorful again, I hope I will give you a glimpse of hope and make the world you see a bit colorful for today. My favorite color is yellow, and I hope the next time you see the color yellow you will think about my words. If someone left you than donโt blame yourself, donโt think you werenโt enough, donโt lower yourself for someone who couldnโt see the awesomeness in you. If you lost someone I am so sorry for your loss, they want you happy, I hope you donโt feel guilty or regret because you were there, you spend enough time with them, they want you to be happy. They are in a good and safe place now. If someone broke your heart than I am so sorry that they couldnโt see the way you look so beautiful because of the heart you have. Anyone who gets to be with you, doesnโt know how fucking lucky he/ she/ they is :). If you arenโt accepted at home or in general than I am so sorry that you have to deal with someone/ something you shouldnโt be ashamed of, I accept you and support you, I accept you as a human being no matter what race, religion, nationality, skin color, or sexuality you have. Youโre safe here with me :). Youโre not useless, youโre not a burden to anyone. Youโre not a problem, youโre human and your feelings are valid. Youโre not being dramatic. Please donโt starve yourself, you deserve food and to drink, I know itโs hard. It hurts to see that youโre in so much pain :( you deserve so much man, donโt let your emotions control you. Donโt let them get the best of you. I am sorry no one is noticing, I wish /hope I could take your pain away for today or even for a moment while youโre reading this. If no one told you, I am so proud of you, youโre reading this and itโs enough for me to be proud of you because youโre here and thatโs all that matters to me. If itโs night for you, go to sleep, I know itโs hard to fall asleep right now but you deserve a good sleep. If you have nightmares, please, donโt let them fight you. If itโs day for you, donโt start it by such sad music, I know itโs impossible to have a good day with such mindset but take baby steps, start by drinking two cups of water everyday in the morning and so on.. You will start building little healthy habits. If itโs evening for you, youโre probably overwhelmed and stressed, I want you to know itโs okay to feel the way you feel. You donโt need to be scared, of course youโre overwhelmed or stressed, I mean who wouldnโt? But itโs important to know that when you feel that way you should do a little self care, such as taking a bath for example? You deserve to feel at ease and relaxed.
And if you are somewhere in between I hope you know that youโre so strong for breathing despite the pain, I know you will make it :) I believe in you. All I want for you is to stay here, I really mean all my words, even if there is a lot of unsaid things I want to tell u and my text is getting longer and longer,I want you here.
I hope one day your smile will become a genuine one where you donโt need to fake it anymore, because I canโt say this enough, you deserve a good smile and to feel alive. Youโre worth more than every fucking cent in this world.
You can let go for today, I got you, you can cry your heart out as much as you want, but donโt let it tear you down and let your emotions control you by giving up. Crying is not weakness. If you still feel alone I dedicate you a song as your friend.
โDusk till Dawn- Zayn feat. Sia (I prefer the slow version)โ I hope you can think of me and will remind yourself of my words, I will for sure think of you.
In case no one told you and youโre unsure yourself, youโre a good person and I am so happy youโre here.
I hope this is enough to stay today, tomorrow will be a new day, a new start, let go now. Enough with beating yourself up for today, okay?
Life for those who couldnโt, smile for those who forgot what a genuine smile is, love like thereโs no other, hug like its your last one.
If you read all of it, until tomorrow my friend :)
have a good day and great years.
I love you so much and am so proud of you, I hope you will remember my words- becho, the stranger that cares more about you than anything :) <3

Climb
Is all we know
When thaw
Is not below us
No, can't grow up
In that iron ground
Claire, all too sore for sound
Bet
Is hardly shown
Scraped
Across the foam
Like they stole it
And oh, how they hold it
Claire, we nearly forfeit
I, I'm growing like the quickening hues
I, I'm telling darkness from lines on you
Over havens fora full and swollen morass, young habitat
All been living alone, where the ice snap and the hold clast are known
Home
We're savage high
Come
We finally cry
Oh and we don it
Because it's right
Claire, I was too sore for sight
I, we're sewing up through the latchet greens
I, un-peel keenness, honey, bean for bean
Same white pillar tone as with the bone street sand is thrown where she stashed us at
All been living alone, where the cracks at in the low part of the stoning
