Song meaning of Green Eyes :: Siena by Nothing But Thieves

Ah, "Green Eyes :: Siena" by Nothing But Thieves, a love song that's all about the color palette, apparently. So, here we have our protagonist who just can't believe they've fallen for this person. Like, seriously, what were they thinking? But hey, when you're imperfect and overly attached, the glue just tends to pull you together, you know? And sometimes, in the midst of all this confusion, it's hard to remember why you even liked the place you're in. But fear not, our protagonist detests the idea of that being the reason they stick around. Oh, what a martyr!

But let's get to the good stuff: the green eyes. Oh, how mesmerizing, how captivating! They're so green, it's like they raided the emerald mines in Siena or something. It's almost as if these eyes have the power to hypnotize and render our protagonist a helpless fool. They'd give anything just for one kiss on those open lips. Really? Anything? Alrighty then.

But wait, there's more! Their love is also on this slow-motion rollercoaster ride. It's like a swimming lesson in our protagonist's mind – didn't you know that thoughts have pools now? Anyway, as time unravels, the realization hits: they're now trapped and designated as the sole owner of this person's heart. Geez, didn't see that one coming, did we?

Oh, and when they lie together (not in a deceitful way, don't worry), it's like they could die and find eternal peace. How romantic, right? Forever and ever, baby. Together, they're gonna beat this "thing." And by "thing," I'm assuming they mean the urge to roll their eyes at their own love story.

So here's to green eyes, emerald dreams, and holding it all down while they hang around, waiting for this person to come around – because it's not like they have anything better to do. Oh, the eternal devotion of an overly infatuated soul. Cheers!
