    coma is about sexual assault and it helped me so much through the most horrible thing i’ve ever experienced, #metoo

      I mean, maybe? I heard it was about her mother being in a "protective coma" as a result of years of domestic violence, which often includes rape,,, so I guess

    • @birdtutorialart
      @birdtutorialart 2 роки тому +2

      Oo I haven’t known it was about sexual assault. I always kinda though of it as a song about alcoholism being used to cope with trauma and abuse. The “protective coma” being when someone is passed out from being drunk

      @@eminemele1531 the lyrics go "he kissed her skin to get off, to get off. Off" that sounds like rape to me.

    I don't know where to go for help but at least this is just a comment.
    For years I've dealt with my memories and I tried asking for help just to be told it never happened, called crazy, told to shut up, and put on meds that affected me. One person that I never wanted to have remember this did and now someone believes me but not after the things they said. I don't have friends because I feel so worthless. I just don't know what to do.
    As it is I'm sick and scared just typing this comment.

    Anyone know the chords to this?

    • @ParhelionMedia
      @ParhelionMedia 5 років тому +7

      I don't, but you're gonna have to figure out the alternate tuning first - she uses a bunch of them in different songs. Then it's not quite as simple as chords. Spend some time with it and watch her fingers and I'm sure it can be learned. She's a creative and masterful fingerstyle player. I'm learning a pretty trick song of hers, "Kerina" using my ears and watching her fingers in a couple performance videos. Good luck with it!
      EDIT: Other commenter says the tuning is CGDEGC capo on 3. Looks/sounds about right to me

      Cool, that's really helpful for the chord positions.

      @mikecook1306 3 роки тому +1

      Jake Martinez I finally figured this out: CGDGGB - it took the headphones + playing it like 50 times but this is it. After adding the capo on the 3rd fret, I usually need to fine tune the notes again, all those G’s sound off if they’re even slightly out of tune but when you hit you will hear!

    Watering is a song about vampires and she is a willing victim.
