Dogwalk
Pity Sex Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I dogwalk with you around the block.
I get by with you.
I get high with you best I can.
I'd do anything to make you feel.
I wanna cry with you.
I wanna lie with you until the pain is through for a while.
I'd do anything to make you feel.
You must've took me for a walk cause I'm short of breath.
You must've stomped right up and scared away my death.
The lyrics to Pity Sex's song "Dogwalk" capture a deep sense of intimacy and vulnerability between two people. The singer expresses a desire to be completely lost in the presence of their companion, to the point where they can't help but get lost with them. The act of dogwalking around the block together represents a small and simple pleasure that has become an important part of their relationship. The idea of getting by and getting high with someone indicates that both the good and bad times are shared equally between them.
The chorus of the song is particularly poignant, as the singer reveals their willingness to do anything to make their partner feel better. The phrase "I wanna cry with you / I wanna die with you once or twice" reveals a deep sense of empathy and compassion for their partner, while also acknowledging the reality that life can be difficult and painful at times. Ultimately, the singer just wants to be there for their partner and provide comfort in any way possible.
The final lines of the song are somewhat enigmatic, but suggest that the singer has undergone some sort of transformation as a result of their time spent with their partner. The imagery of being short of breath and scared away from death implies that the singer has experienced some sort of awakening or realization that has brought them closer to life.

How I knew I'd love this song before even listening to it:
1. The album cover is pretty
2. It's from an under-appreciated band signed to Run for Cover
