Hospital Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

you could stay
and fall prey to bad ideas
you could go away
but you could never forget
i felt nearly dead, when you said go ahead
instead of sitting and moaning of life
don't be so upset
there is no time to regret

an eye for an eye
you repeated all night

you are so lush
even when you're out and down
it makes me act like I am a clown
it's an endless story
oh, why are you so lush

you should stay
and see what is gonna happen
you should take your time
and see how much you can do
i never felt so bad
like when you said ""go ahead""
i won't forget the shining light in your eyes
don't be so upset
there is no time to regret

We need to survive
You repeated all night

Overall Meaning

In "Lush" by Hospital, the lyrics explore themes of temptation, regret, and resilience. The first stanza sets the stage for these themes, suggesting that one has the option to stay and succumb to bad ideas or to go away but never forget the consequences of their actions. The line "I felt nearly dead when you said go ahead" reflects a pivotal moment of decision-making, where the singer experiences a sense of despair or emptiness. Instead of dwelling on the negatives, the lyrics advise against being upset and emphasize the importance of not wasting time on regret. The phrase "an eye for an eye you repeated all night" suggests a recurring pattern of destructive behavior that may originate from a desire for revenge or a desire for fairness.

The chorus introduces the term "lush" as a descriptor for the subject of the song. The word "lush" typically refers to something luxurious, abundant, or attractive. Here, it seems to be used ironically, as the lyrics reveal that even when the subject is feeling low or going through difficult times, they still possess an allure or charm that affects the singer's behavior. The singer hints at feeling like a clown, perhaps suggesting that they are being lured into a foolish or comical state due to the subject's allure.

The second stanza shifts the focus to the subject, urging them to stay and witness what will unfold in their life. Rather than rushing into decisions, the lyrics encourage taking one's time and recognizing the potential for personal growth and achievement. The line "I never felt so bad like when you said 'go ahead'" suggests that the singer experienced a deep sadness or disappointment in response to the subject's permission or encouragement to proceed with something. However, amidst the pain, the singer also acknowledges the captivating light they saw in the subject's eyes, which may serve as a reminder of the genuine connection they once shared.

The final line emphasizes the need for survival and underscores the repeated nature of the subject's insistence on an "eye for an eye" mentality. This could potentially refer to a cycle of hurting or seeking revenge on others as a means of self-preservation. The lyrics encourage resilience and perseverance in the face of difficulties, highlighting the importance of moving forward rather than dwelling on regrets. Throughout the song, the theme of the subject's allure or "lushness" persists, suggesting an ongoing struggle for the singer to resist their influence and maintain their own sense of identity.
