The song is about someone being born in a bad environment with people who don't deserve to be parents. The first verse sets the scene. The first line suggests a birth which was un intended and unwanted. The 'threadbare,tall story' is just a a worn down block of flats in a rough area. The imagery with the 'blunt kitchen knife' says to me the mother is already killing her child slowly with passive smoking and she it seems like she is a drug user and is she's away with it. The 'slow arc of a fist' could mean she could be abusing the child or could be to do with the drugs that she is not fully conscious. The chorus goes straight in to the child being older and being abused by her mother and the 'born into a grave' says she never had any hope with the environment she was brought up in. 'She’s accustomed to hearing that she could never run far' Society including teachers have her believing that she won't make anything of herself that she won't get anywhere in life. She was born to fail. 'Now she lies on the pavement, she is helped to her feet All thighs, hair and magpie handbags Saturday’s uniform for the 'fuck me' parade' She's older again and she is drunk and stumbling about. She is dressed up in indecent clothes which you would associate with a prostitute. This could mean she is a prostitute out selling herself in 'her uniform' and ready to work. 'Her blood is thicker than concrete Forced to be brave, she was A broken elevator anthem held between floors The last verse says suggest there is still hope for her and she can get herself out of the world she's living in. The 'She was' is in a past tense saying she was stuck in the same horrible place and she has now escaped it. 'But if blood is thicker than concrete, all is not lost All is not lost, all is not lost' Throughout the song the line 'her blood is thicker than concrete' and in the final verse it's saying that because of this she still has hope and 'all is not lost'. |

It is from the penultimate scene of the film: Leon. SPOILERS: 'This is from Matilda' (Mathilda is the character Reno befriends in the film) 'Just like Johnny Flynn said, 'the breath I've taken and the one I must' to go on' Its a quote from a song by Johnny Flynn. I think it means Reno is preparing to build up the courage to kill himself in order to kill Oldman. This is what Jean Reno says to Gary Oldman while 'Put[ing] the grenade pin in [Oldman's] hand'. ' so you understand who's boss' Reno has grenades strapped to his chest. 'My defeat sleeps top to toe with her success' I think this means Leon's death (and blowing up Gary Oldman) is where he is defeated but it is her (Mathilda's) success as the man who killed her family (especially brother) is now dead. 'And she needs you This is for Matilda' Reno protects Matilda throughout the film. |
