Parker Posey
The Car Is On Fire Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I can't teach you something I don't know
There's a lotta things I don't understand
But with you beside me holding my hand
There is one thing I'm sure of
It's you I love
Anything you'll do
I know it's hard to be so cool
When the only thing you want brings you down
The Car Is On Fire's song "Parker Posey" tells the story of someone who is deeply in love with their partner but is struggling to understand what's going on with them. The opening line "Well I can go to hell if you go" suggests that this person is willing to go through anything as long as they have their partner by their side. However, they are also quick to acknowledge that there are certain things they don't know and can't teach their partner.
The song talks about the challenges of being in a relationship and not always understanding your partner's feelings. The line "There is one thing I'm sure of, it's you I love" highlights the unwavering love this person has for their partner, even if they can't always make sense of their actions. The chorus of the song, "Anything you'll do, I will be around, I know it's hard to be so cool when the only thing you want brings you down," speaks to the struggle of wanting to be there for your partner but not knowing how to help them.
Overall, "Parker Posey" is a heartfelt and honest song about the complexities of love and relationships, and the ups and downs that come with them.
