Discover the story of the song > God Called In Sick Today – Afi

The protagonist is talking about admiring a pattern that looks like murder. She feels trapped in the twisting of a plant and wants to climb up like ivy. She wants to ignore and leave behind a crumbling headstone. The protagonist can't help but laugh when her partner cries because it makes their eyes look angelic. She wants to change a classic story and make it beautiful. She wants to unwind the animosity and steal away the dark pages. Even though the lies make her feel violent, she wants to still feel them. She can't help but laugh when people cry because it makes their eyes look angelic. They are miles away, but her mother also cries. The idea that there is a nurturing force that is also malevolent is also mentioned.
