So sick of love songs lyric8/16/2023 In the next stanza, Hozier sings that his girlfriend invites him to "worship in the bedroom" and that he's sent to Heaven when he's with her. This girl is more desirable than church and, he thinks, a better way to understand the meaning of life. And compared to her, he believes church to be a "bleak" place, that spits out "poison" at those who attend, telling them that they were "born sick" in sin. In the next stanza, he claims that "f the heavens ever did speak / she's the last true mouthpiece." He believes that if God exists, He would speak through this woman. Hozier begins by singing about an imaginary girlfriend who "giggles at a funeral," and who "knows everybody's disapproval." He regrets not having "worshipped her sooner." Hozier is strongly attracted to this woman, whomever she is. Hes been pretending he doesnt need her and can get over her but deep down he knows he loves her and wants her back.The song comes in two parts: an adoration of Hozier's female lover and an indictment of the church. And then the why can't i turn off the radio as meaning that deep down he knows he doesn t want to be over her at all, hes not sick of the love song, because the love song is a metaphor for his girl. "Said im so sick of love songs so sad and slowīecause I've thought the song as his girl, and hes so sick of still loving her and wanting her back and how he just wants to be over her. But then its the line of the chrous that gives the true meaning of the song i think. I've always thought of the first verse as him saying how his girls left and how he still hasn't got over it, and now all he wants is just to be over her.Īnd then the chorus about the love song is reminding him of her, how all love songs do make us feel sad when we have had a break up. I've always interpreted this song slightly different to the comments above, im probably wrong. ![]() Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow (so done and I'm so sick of love songs) So done with wishing you were still here (so done and I'm so sick of love songs) Why can't I turn off the radio?
