Lyrics:
You're home, you're home
You're home to me
So leave me, leave me
Leave me a map
I'm here at my cliff looking down
I cannot bear you a son, but I will try
For if I am not yours, what am I?
I daydream I'd give one a name of my own
For I, even I, even I am on loan
I have, I have, I watch a dream
Breaking, breaking, breaking me
Away from my cliff, I'm looking down from
I cannot bear you a son, I have tried
But if I am not yours, what am I?
I daydream I'd give him a name of my own
For I, even mine, even mine is unknown
So let me go towards the morning star
With hope it won't disappear

There's something behind these kind of songs,Jesus mamuhat ka
poser de mitski
Okay has anyone else noticed how this song begins with an inhale and "me and my husband" begins with an exhale. I have no idea if that was intentional but this small detail has been driving me crazy.
I noticed that too awhile back. Another nice reference to Lush on Be the Cowboy.
holy shit
Thanks for this amazing detail
@@joeycummens6828 Is the other one A Pearl/Pearl Diver?
@@bestof1506 likely, they’re in similar keys and they both use pearls as a metaphor
“For if I am not yours, what am I?”
Broke me.
truly…
Yo
i couldnt stop crying at that part.
Me and My Husband, Bag of Bones and Wife are just meant to go together, like I just feel it in the lyrics and the tone. Its like they make a story about this woman who loves her husband, but he doesnt anymore.
WASHING MACHINE HEART COULD BE ADDED TO THIS WIFE AND HUSBAND SAGA 👁️👁️
Eric is when she recognizes his neglect and stops loving him
eric dan the dancer and ms abby, abbys wants to be the best american girl.
bag of bones has this murmuring in the end, and door has the same murmuring in the start
Same with Happy
Words can not explain how much i love this woman
Same omg
SAME
literally
Fr
like bjork said it’s like trying to put an ocean through a straw
Do y'all ever think abt how in the last line "so let me go towards the morning star, with hope it won't disappear." She states her goal is to reach the morning star, the brightest star you can see at night and the last one that disappears at morning. However, this isn't even a star it's Venus but it appears as a star from the naked eye. And funnily enough in her song "nobody" she described Venus as the "planet of love". Therefore we can conclude that in that line she meant that she wants to reach her goal of bearing her husband's child because if she doesn't, he won't love her anymore.
edit: DAYUM YALL STILL REPLYING TO THIS SHIT??
i actually interpreted the morning star to be the sun? but i dont know what this might mean in the bigger picture except maybe some kind of double-entendre like son/sun but i think yours makes more sense😭
Just cried reading this
venus is the roman goddess of love - you don’t need the connection between the songs it’s just a mythos thing and i think that supports your argument more
Your English teacher must’ve loved you
mitski lore
lush is one of the best albums made by mitski tbh. like the fact it’s her first album too is insane because of how good it is
She deserves a Grammy, even though Grammy is trash
that sounds kinda back-handed....
@@elizabethpaul2936 i mean ig it’s liek.. the media recognizes u as somebody who’s good n stuff,,, but the Grammys r often unfair. So IF they ever start to actually showcase good artists,, she’ll def be one of em, 100%. Like who tf sees lady Gaga and thinks “HM, shape of you is better than anything she’ll ever produce”
@@elizabethpaul2936 The Grammys are trash now everyone knows that
mitski deserves so much more recognition. it pains me that many people won’t get this experience. every time i listen to one of mitski’s songs, i feel new emotions. i feel understood. i feel content. i feel comforted. mitski is art
mitski is religion
"I cannot bear you a son, i have tried" is the peak of raw emotion in the song and its my favorite part
Gosh,,, this is one of mitski's criminally underrated songs
I think this might be my favorite song from this album. She sings as she’s going to break down at any moment. Lush is of full beautiful songs, I love them all.
"for if i am not yours, what am i?" always hits me deep. especially during those days i have really no will to go about my day, when it feels difficult to want to live, i always use my boyfriend as my crutch to keep going
[Verse 1]
You're home, you're home, you're home to me
So leave me, leave me, leave me a map
I'm here at my cliff looking down
[Hook]
I cannot bear you a son
But I will try
For if I am not yours, what am I?
I daydream I'd give one a name of my own
For I, even I, even I am alone
[Verse 2]
I have, I have, I watch a dream breaking
Breaking, breaking me
Away from my cliff, I am looking down from
[Hook]
I cannot bear you a son
I have tried
But if I am not yours, what am I?
I daydream I'd give him a name of my own
For I, even my, even mine is unknown
[Post-Hook]
So let me go towards the morning star
With hope it won't disappear

It is map. Slow it down. I swore up and dow it was man but it is map.
it hit hard when she sang, “i daydream i’d give him a name of my own…even mine is unknown” it feels like a comment related to choosing a meaningful name that’s tied to your ethnic/cultural background. especially when names that aren’t english are butchered so often by people, you can feel isolated at times but still have an important connection to it. cus after all, that is the name you were given within your cultural background. to be able to choose a name for your child as well like how it was done for you, can feel so special.
stop this made me shed actual tears fuck
@@Elucie7575 U GET ME!!!!
The end lyrics gave me liability vibes. Love both queens
This song somehow reminds me of Queen Catherine of Aragon especially with the lines:
"I cannot bear you a son, but I will try"
"I cannot bear you a son, I have tried"
"For I, even I, even I am alone"
I THOUGHT THE EXACT SAME THING
are you a six fan or do you just know history help
@@_nicnice both XD i was really into the history behind the six wives and later found out there's a musical about them and ended up enjoying that a lot too
OH MY GOD I NEVER THOUGHT OF THIS BEFORE BUT IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE???
YES OMG I WAS THINKING THE SAME
misses miyawaki you really didnt have to come for me like this. you really did not have to hit me right in the soul at 4 pm on a Thursday like this. truly a queen of both beating the shit out of and cradling my feelings
what is it about this song that always makes me curl into a tight ball and dry wail
like I'm a lesbian and I don't even want kids but there's a sound to this song that makes me feel like it's about my life
i think it's the deep down fear of being inadequate or valueless as a person, that gets bigger and bigger without validation from the people we get too dependent on, even if our relationships with them are one-sided and unfair ✌️
yeah me too
i never wanted kids via my own body but when i first found out i couldnt have any it hurt so bad
i will never want kids with my gf but knowing i can’t makes me bawl
@@evelyn6805 yeah it hurts in a way that like is so hard to explain cause like you say you never wanted kids people see it as a blessijg
No, really, Mitski, if you ever read this comments just know that this f*cking song has changed my life! I literally cannot understand how a HUMAN BEING has written this masterpiece! I just am so overwhelmed with this!
recently discovered lush and i feel like mitski deserved so much more popularity than she got 😔 she defs couldve been an ldr or a bjork type in my opinion!! and of course she still has time to build that kinda legacy, but to me nothing will ever beat the magic of this album ❤️
omg edit one year after i posted this and shes so popular now lol
This album is so perfect man... I think it's her best album for sure even though the others are so good, lush is flawless 😭😭
Tiktoc saw this comment a month ago and said "watch this" lol
i’m glad now she’s getting more hype :)
@@rio-um7im tiktok kinda ruined the fanbase tho
And now she's popular and tiktok girls ruined her songs ... Pain
“For if I am not yours, what am I?”
too sad for my heart
chills every. Every time
yo i’m not very good at japanese but does your name mean like “another girl” ?
@@sejcai it says suki na hito which means a crush,, like the person who you like but not you specifically, the you part isn't mentioned
the piano shes playing this on is out of tune holy shit
now i can never play this on the piano without it sounding out of tune to me even though the song is the one that's out of tune .... power move honestly
but is beutiful cause is out of tune like waat
Omg.... i was trying to figure out how to play it on the piano.... amd thats why i couldnt...
@@specialsauce. Same with you. I was going insane, it feels good to know.
dry hands from minecraft is the same way -- the original track's piano is out of tune, so every cover of the song sounds off-key.
Same with class of 2013 😭😭
i love mitski's lyrics so much. it's been 2-3 years since i've been able to memorize an entire song's lyrics.
one of the most beautiful songs ive ever heard
this song isn’t necessarily about having a kid with someone who doesnt love you back , it can also be that theres someone who you love so much that you give up everything for them. you give up your goals to make them happy, and when you cant, you keep trying and trying because you think that if you dont do that they wont love you anymore
This is gonna be a long comment but this song found me on shuffle at the wrong but also at the perfect time in my life. I’m 17, just well,, figuring things out. And already I’ve been told how I’m supposed to be and who I’m supposed to be as a woman. To me this song feels so personal,, I want love but I don’t want to feel owned. I don’t want marriage to mean I have to give my last name to take his, and be expected to bare sons. I like the idea of marriage and even a kid but I’ve been so conditioned to thinking I have to do it a certain way.
“I cannot bare you a son, but I will try. For if I am not yours, who am I?” And “I daydream I’d give him a name of my own, for I, even mine, even mine is unknown” just,, really hit home. The feeling of longing love but feeling like I have to give up my family name or bare him children just really hurts. All I want is a son of my own that I can raise by myself and give him MY last name. I’m proud of my name. Why do I feel like no one will want me unless they make me theirs.
@@thesortingcone3176 I'm very happy to report that now, at 19, I have found people who love me without having to sacrifice my autonomy or twist my identity to meet their needs. It's crazy how much has changed since I left that comment. It's nice to know even if it's still hard I've found a safe place.
I know this probably isn’t the intention, but I’ve always associated this song with infertility. As someone who struggles with this, it’s very comforting. Love you Mitski ❤
most criminally underrated mitski somg
I can't even express my pain, but this song does
this song resonates with me because there's so much vulnerability in it which is something i can never do because of my father and also the lyrics of the song just hits me hard because all this boils down to is i want to be loved and cherished by someone and to also be important to them but my fear of letting them down and hurting them the way my father did scares me so i just withdraw myself to everyone i meet including my long time friends despite craving their presence hell anyone will really do at this point i just want someone to be my safe place and for them to say "it's ok i'm here i am your safe place they can't hurt you anymore" God why was i even made
Lesbians 🤝 this song
can confirm
lesbians 🤝 every mitski song
yes
@@user-mj7nb2hn9m no just shut up.
@@user-mj7nb2hn9m Just because you're lesbian doesn't mean you can relate to all her songs.
For I even I am alone
The way she sings name at 2:06 is soooo nice
if ur reading this, pleased know that you're loved
i can’t believe mitski invented wifes just por this song
I THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST CREATIONS IN ALL HISTORY OF HUMANITY
this song is so comforting but makes me wanna bawl my eyes out at the same time
“you’re home to me” just hits so hard. every single sentence that mitski sings is just so powerful. she is just so powerful, she has a talent and she uses it greatly.
i just rediscovered this song after years and i’m in tears... this resonates so hard with the way i felt so stuck in my previous relationship and i can just feel the pain in this song. wow
Personal rant.
I just DESPISE how women go through so much and put up with their husbands. I understand how since the beginning of time, women are conditioned to be companions of men, and the patriarchy convincing us that we need MEN that we need a HUSBAND in order to survive. Which WAS TRUE because of how less rights we had in the past. But now as the times are progressing, there are still women with that mindset because of how different systems across the world oppress them. We get paid less, don't get enough maternity benefits, forced to get married at a young age and GET KILLED if you don't aree with it, SEEN as OBJECTS, HARRASSED, taken for granted.
So much violence conducted by men, and yet we are convinced that we need one. And you're just there to bear them children for their own "survival" THEIR LAST NAME ON A CHILD YOU BEAR FOR 9 EXCRUCIATING MONTHS.
And after that they treat you like an object, but if you don't, YOU'RE USELESS. YOU'RE A WOMAN, YOU'RE THEIR WIFE. YOU'RE USELESS IF YOU CAN'T BEAR A CHILD.
YOU'RE A SAD EMPTY HUMAN BEING IF YOU'RE NOT A MAN'S PROPERTY.
I could go on and on. But I would like to commend Mitski for this art.
this song is so criminally underrated. maybe i feel that way because in a way i can relate but people need to listen to this more.
“I cannot bare you a son but I will try”
This part of the song made me understand that I can’t achieve something but I’m trying so hard to the point at which it’s breaking me
on the floor sobbing uncontrolably i love this woman so much
mitski released this masterpiece ten years ago and its still my favorite.
sings so well 😻
hello fellow lesbians
hey (mamas btw)
was that a terrible joke
@@judyelkadi LMAO
@@judyelkadi u were here 3 weeks ago too... u good broski?
@@riolol6317 great question! 😃
"I have tried, but if I'm not yours then what am I?"
I'm sorry, I can't be who you want me to be I just can't no matter how hard I try. I love you so much and would give my life away for you, but it just isn't there, I'm sorry I'm so sorry I'm so close but you're still unable to touch me and I'm sorry I keep giving you false hope I love you so much and I don't wanna lose you but I can't be who you want me to be doesn't matter what I do I can't feel what I should be feeling I know we're both hurting I can feel your hand slipping away from mine and I can't bear to be away from you I don't know what to do anymore I don't know how to fix it
The inhale at the beginning of this song and the exhale in Me and my Husband... I can't do this bestie
I always thought if mitski is okay know, she had explain us how hard it was her life thought words and I feel how mistki feel at make this song, I wish shes okay, I cant explain how I aprecited her and love her
my favourite thing to do is listening to mitski songs and interpret what they could be about
I LOVE YOU MITSKI I LOVE YOU AND YOUR MUSIC
I don’t even relate to this song at all? But it still hurts so much to listen to :( That’s how you know the artist is amazing
i met Mitski from bsd manga panels and I've never been so grateful in my life
this is one of the most beautiful mitski songs in my opinion. it's like first dance music if it was really depressing
this song is 2 minutes 40 seconds of PURE PAIN
this song has so few eyes on it I'm surprised ,hi
happy tenth year lush
this song describes comp het so good (even tho mitski didn't write it with that intention)
it always makes me cry
Lush BEST album!!
when mitski sings ''for i could not bear you a son'' that part makes me SOB, because my brother has abused me for my whole life just because i wasnt born a boy to the point where i wish i could saw off my hair and run away from home to just get him out of my life.
IF I'M NOT YOURS, WHAT AM I?
GOD,THIS IS VERY BEAUTIFUL
she's so perfect, her songs are amazing, she deserves a lot of recognition!! I love you mitski
My favorite songggg

Every single day i discover a new mitski song that completely blows my mind
this song is so underrated

this song starts with an inhale like she gonna be a wife and in 'me and my husband' she starts with an exhale like she realized something about her husband and being a wife
esto es arte
wife walked so me and my husband could run
god this song is criminally underrated !
crying so bad rn
first time listening here we go
this song makes my heart want to explode into 1 million pieces and do it all over again, just for some girl...😕
‘for if i am not yours , what am i’
For if I'm not yours, what am i
