Cry On My Guitar
Miles Kane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Loaded with the cheapskates, barely alive
I said, yeah, I come undone
Rolling out the chimney you can see the cracks
Taps me on the shoulder, had a heart attack
I said, yeah, I come undone
And when you push me, yeah, you push me
I sit and then I cry upon the strings of my guitar
And everybody tells me that it's
Shalalalala, oh yeah
Stop me on the avenue, cuffs on my wrists
Told me I was driving like a ballroom blitz
I said, yeah, I'm so high and strung
Every time you leave me, yeah, it comes to this
Mix another medicine, mad scientist
I said, yeah, I'm so high and strung
And when you push me, yeah, you push me
Yeah, you push me too far
I sit and then I cry upon the strings of my guitar
And everybody tells me that it's
Shalalalala, oh yeah
Why does it always have to come to this?
Late night, all night, miss your kiss
I said, yeah, I'm so high and strung
Why does it always have to come to this?
Late night, all night, miss your kiss
I said, yeah, I'm so high and strung, strung, strung
And when you push me, yeah, you push me
Yeah, you push me too far
I sit and then I cry upon the strings of my guitar
And everybody tells me that it's
Shalalalala, oh yeah
The lyrics of Miles Kane's "Cry On My Guitar" appear to be about a person who is struggling to cope with a difficult situation, possibly one that is caused by a toxic relationship. The first verse seems to describe a person who is living on the edge, barely surviving and struggling to hold on. The line "I come undone" suggests that this person is falling apart and losing control of their emotions.
In the chorus, the person talks about how they feel when they are pushed too far, which suggests that there is someone in their life who is causing them stress, possibly a partner or a family member. The lines "I sit and then I cry upon the strings of my guitar" indicates that the person finds solace in music and uses it as a tool to express their pain and frustration.
The second verse seems to describe the aftermath of a heated argument or a drunken night out. The line "told me I was driving like a ballroom blitz" implies that the person may have been behaving recklessly, possibly because they were under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The line "mix another medicine, mad scientist" suggests that the person is self-medicating to deal with their problems.
Overall, the song appears to be about someone who is struggling to cope with a toxic situation in their life, but is finding solace in music. The song may be a reflection of Miles Kane's own personal experiences, or it may be a fictional story based on the experiences of others.
