    Hozier was kind enough to wholly represent the demographic of relationships where one is the person who buried a dead body and the other is the dead body that they found along the way huh

    I think this is about two abuse victims finding solace in each other. "Why were you digging, what did you bury?" Old suppressed trauma, that they had buried deep inside and internalized, and finally was unearthed again. "I knew that look dear, eyes always seeking" - panic attack, or another sort of episode "was there in someone who dug long ago?" was there someone that hurt you? Were you hurt before? "I will not ask you where you came from, I would not ask and neither would you" you don't have to explain anything to me, it's okay, you don't have to tell me anything about what happened, I love you regardless. And its mutual. I think a lot of people are far to literal with this song and its meaning so I wanted to share my take on it

      As an abuse victim myself I completely agree with this. In addition I feel like the line "like real people do" resonates with a lot of us. When you're abused, you're treated as less than human, so you often FEEL less than human. As wrong as it is to think of ourselves that way, it's easier to love the person hurting us if we hate ourselves. "Like real people do" as a line in this song is a marked improvement in that sort of thinking, because the singer is allowing himself to be treated with the respect and love he thinks real people deserve.

    This song has such a soft beauty and brokenness to it. It sounds like two people who are obviously and broken and too tired and beaten to care about anything but the love in front of them to the point they don’t even need to talk about it there is just an understanding, like she took him from the ground representing past mistakes and made it disappear with compassion.

    when I hear this song it reminds me of my ex, and the way I felt when I had dreams of him after he died. I know that the sing is not supposed to be taken literally, but the imagery in his words fit in so perfectly. Talking about digging him up, and how I used to hate myself from asking him "how are you here when you died? ", and he would look at me sad and right then and there I would wake up. the last few times I dreamt of him, I did not ask him anything, and neither did him. I was able to dream longer

    "I can see you for the person before me, and I don't want to know the trauma behind you, because I've lived a nightmare just the same. I know the pain, and I see you hiding it below this dirt, as I have done. We are one in the same, and yet, so different. You are able to see me, and not my scars. You do not live in wonder of my past, as I to you. I can love you blissfully. You can love me. I do not need to know where you came from, and neither do you. We can forget the alienation. We can love like real people do."

    This song makes me nostalgic for my childhood ambience. A cool summer's night in the desert; the faint humming of an outdated lightbulb, the sound of my dad tapping away at his keyboard, the swamp cooler rattling on the roof, the soft buzz of an aquarium filter, an occasional car passing by. No speaking or music or tv, just the idle sounds of the world around us lulling us into a comfortable restfulness.

      I always imagined it was two former addicts who met in a recover group
      That’s why is keeps saying “I would not ask and neither would you”,
      like talking about their addictions
      But I guess it could also apply to 2 people who were abused but found each other

    This song always makes me think of this story that I've created. The man singing this song was a gravedigger, has always worked there, and has experienced many grave robbers before. The person the man is singing to is a grave robbers, just trying to make ends meet. One day the grave digger maybe sees something he isn't supposed to and get buried alive in his own graveyard. The grave robber, digs him back up to their surprise. They then fall in love, without ever asking why they were in that situation in the first place.

    This song is like, in the process of loving someone after a long tiring path. Like living old memories as if they were new. It's so nostalgic that even if I heard it for the first time- it feels like a reunion with an old friend who has so much I didn't know about so I'm getting to know them all over again. It taste like young love and the euphoria calmed down to a level where the butterflies are just tingles but sincere.

    Why were you digging?
    What did you bury
    Before those hands pulled me
    From the earth?
    I will not ask you where you came from
    I will not ask you, neither should you
    Honey just put your sweet lips on my lips
    We should just kiss like real people do
    I knew that look dear
    Eyes always seeking
    Was there in someone
    That dug long ago
    So I will not ask you
    Why you were creeping
    In some sad way I already know
    I will not ask you where you came from
    I will not ask you and neither would you
    Honey just put your sweet lips on my lips
    We should just kiss like real people do
    I could not ask you where you came from
    I could not ask you, neither could you
    Honey just put your sweet lips on my lips
    We could just kiss like real people do

      Well... they are forbidden love. So "I will not ask you where you came from. I will not ask an neither should you" speaks to that side of things. And well. Theyre both done a lot of burying.
      And they speak in looks a shit ton tbh, longing looks. Vaguely sad. Crowley doesnt need to ask what those looks mean, and it's sad that he knows cause forbidden love
      "We should just kiss like real people do" and wanting to have the ability to be together, it's easy for the humans, ie the real people
      The use of dear in the first line is also notable

  • @richymt20

    My interpretation of the song:
    I guess the woman was digging up her past to look for an ex(Ex 1)she still loves, however instead she finds another one of her ex(Ex 2) so low and hopeless. Ex 2 persuades her to forget the past and to create a fresh new start with him together. But, in the lyrics it is said that the woman is still seeking and creeping for something else, so she actually only wants Ex 1. Ex 2 knows about this and thus in the lyrics "i will not ask you where u came from.. In some sad way i already know". This hints that the woman loved Ex 1 first in the past before she loved Ex 2.
    The song is told in the perspective of Ex 2
