I don't pull my hair out trying to figure out what Chris is talking about. I see her meaning as a little more straight forward.

On the other hand, I do think there's a deeper layer and a darker strain to her words than a lot of people give her credit for. I think they're a lot less sugary than they would initially appear to casual fans who like to cheerily croon in sing song voice: "tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies."

I think her songs are mysterious, but only because people aren't listening, not because she's not explaining things exactly. For instance, SYLM, I think most people hear a guy saying he loves her, when it's really about a guy leaving. How does it feel being wooed when you know the woe is just a sunrise away?
