2) "Think about the Brian Wilsons of the world, the Neutral Milk Hotels, the Captain
Beefhearts…It would be presumptuous to make such a bold statement about Paul
Hogan, who’s the mastermind behind Frances, but it doesn’t seem too far off, either. A frighteningly talented songwriter and multi-instrumentalist… he’s the kind of musical mind you don’t want to doubt." – The L Magazine

Borrowed Time
Frances Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I think I'm starting to strain
Have I done something to hurt you?
Cause it's not been feeling the same
Maybe I've been seeing salt in the sand
I should know it's all in my head
But a question I know I have to ask
Are we in the hands of borrowed time?
Borrowed time
Where do we stand?
Are these the hands of borrowed time?
If you ever were to leave me
Would you come back lonely someday?
And if I fell apart completely
Would you still come running my way?
Maybe I've been seeing salt in the sand
I should know it's all in my head
But a question I know I have to ask
Are we in the hands of borrowed time?
Borrowed time
Where do we stand?
Are these the hands of borrowed time?
Are we in the hands of borrowed time?
Borrowed time
Where do we stand?
Are these the hands of borrowed time?
The lyrics of Frances's song "Borrowed Time" express a sense of insecurity in a relationship.

There is nothing that I won't do
I am willing to do anything to fix our relationship
But I think I'm starting to strain
However, it's becoming difficult for me
Have I done something to hurt you?
Have I caused you any pain or discomfort?
Cause it's not been feeling the same
Because lately, things have felt different between us
Maybe I've been seeing salt in the sand
It's possible that I'm imagining problems that do not exist
I should know it's all in my head
I should realize that these problems are not real
But a question I know I have to ask
However, I still need to ask the question
Are we in the hands of borrowed time?
Is our time together limited or coming to an end?
Borrowed time
Time that we don't have control over and can be taken away at any moment
Where do we stand?
What is the current state of our relationship?
If you ever were to leave me
In the event that you decide to end things between us
Would you come back lonely someday?
Will you ever regret leaving me and come back on your own?
And if I fell apart completely
If I were to become completely broken
Would you still come running my way?
Would you still come back to me and try to help fix things?
Are we in the hands of borrowed time?
Is our time together limited or coming to an end?
Borrowed time
Time that we don't have control over and can be taken away at any moment
Where do we stand?
What is the current state of our relationship?
Are these the hands of borrowed time?
Is our relationship in a fragile state or close to ending?
