The live side of the Planning For Burial coin has a split personality where the audience is never sure what they are going to get; the loud version is a droning and noise-y wall of sound while the quiet version is soft and pretty. Both aspects though are exercises in wondrous depression.
Warmth Of You
Planning for Burial Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The warmth in you
Through and through
Didn't want to leave it
Couldn't bare to leave
Though I tried
I tried
I tried
I wanted you
Thought I needed you
Pain and all
Couldn't stand the distance
Though I tried
I tried
I tried
I tried
The lyrics in Planning For Burial's "Warmth of You" depict a person who is struggling to let go of a comforting presence in their life. The repeated phrases "the warmth of you" and "the warmth in you" convey a sense of comfort and security that the singer finds in the presence of this person. However, despite their desire to stay, the singer recognizes that they must leave and face the pain of separation. The repetition of "I tried" throughout the song emphasizes the difficulty and emotional weight of this decision.
The second verse reveals that the singer is coming to terms with the fact that they may not actually need this person in their life. The line "thought I needed you" suggests that the singer had previously believed that this relationship was necessary for their well-being, but is now realizing that they can handle the pain of separation on their own. However, this doesn't make it any easier to leave – the "distance" between the singer and the other person still causes them pain.
Overall, "Warmth of You" is a bittersweet exploration of the difficulty of leaving behind a comforting presence, even when doing so is necessary for personal growth.
