Grizzly Bear Two Weeks lyrics

 
Save up all the days
A routine malaise
Just like yesterday
I told you I would stay

Would you always
Maybe sometimes
Make it easy
Take your time
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/g/grizzly_bear/two_weeks.html ]
Think of all the ways
Momentary phase
Just like yesterday
I told you I would stay

Every time you try
Quarter half the mile
Just like yesterday
I told you I would stay

Would you always
Maybe sometimes
Make it easy
Take your time

Its about one of their friends who had them go to church for two weeks, it's not about love at all.

I believe its about someone who has been working a long time and is looking forward to getting away from the daily grind and is about to go on vacation for two weeks! But his boss is asking him to postpone his vacay and stay at work to finish some big project. Now the guy is all sad and melodramtic about being a tool and missing out on his vacation.

I believe the song is a love song. Although, other interpretations aren’t necessarily incorrect. Here's my analysis, coming from personal experience. "save up all the days, a routine malaise. "
when in a long term committed relationship with someone whose depth of personality(ies) you start to understand, you start to see patterns in their behavior and develop empathy love and even respect or enjoyment for their continual struggles. Everyday each of us is different and when you don't give up on that person, as all the days go by you can handle and understand the routine malaise. This, however, doesn't mean that the two people in that relationship never have the fear of being misunderstood and judged for their seemingly random bouts of misery and shifting moods. Although we each know to some degree that this is part of human nature, we fear that our significant other will someday be fed up with it. Hence the:
"just like yesterday, i told you i would stay"
i believe this is 'the other person' -either or both, its a dialogue- reassuring the other that i will stick with you through this. It's quite beautiful really. Then:
"would you always, maybe sometimes, make it easy, take your time"
i believe that the first three of these phrases are a question(s) from the insecure person. Would you always, or maybe just sometimes, make it easy? As far as i'm concerned, when i'm emotionally vulnerable in a relationship and need the other person to reassure me, i am often apologetic, hoping and even asking that he be patient with me, ease off with his demands or criticisms (cause let’s face it, when in a relationship, everyone gets on each other's nerves. Sometimes being quite ruthless in how you speak to each other. You get to the point where you know the other person's insecurities and, not to be an asshole/bitch, you tend to pick at them. Half to improve the other person and half just because you're irritated at their behavior. ) this is a request to make it easy sometimes, to step back, listen, and actually understand me, which is actually why you are in the relationship to begin with. "take your time" could be the other person conceding to the request and giving time, space and understanding. The next lines are:
"think of all the ways, momentary phase, just like yesterday, i told you i would stay"
i think this could be referring to thinking of all the times we had together, the good times. They always return after each melancholy mood i have. You know very well that this is a momentary phase. And then, the other person or even the insecure person could be saying "just like yesterday i told you i would stay" i told you i was committed to being with you through good times and bad. The last line before the chorus repeats:
"every time you try, quarter half the mile, just like yesterday, i told you i would stay"
this i'd like to think is the most profound stanza. I have trouble with this myself. When someone is in a standoffish mood and shuts the other out it can feel like every time you try to get in, every time you try to get them to let you into their private world (or vice versa letting them into your private feelings), you only get so far and it feels like you're losing them. It feels like you've only gone a small fraction of the distance to understand what they are feeling. This can sometimes feel devastating. It can make you feel like this is the last straw and they or you will be gone forever because they or you are too afraid of being completely open. (we all know that's pretty scary) but
"just like yesterday, i told you i would stay. "

If you’re going to interpret this as a love song, i think it is so absolutely profound while also being juxtaposed against this light feather melody and seemingly simple lyrics. I think they did a good job with this one.

Signed up just to say i really liked agneslegnou's take on the song. The "i told you i would stay" made me instantly think love song, but to me the bored with the routine idea makes more sense. It actually carries a lot of meaning for me because i started skateboarding 6 months ago and it changed my life for the better, and this song was in one of the first skate videos i watched.

Don't you think this song could have another meaning ? In my opinion, it's a song about society, about bored people who are fed up with their routine lives. Who just think about the past to keep going, who believe in happiness (or religion) to go on... To me, this song is about a person who tries to give courage to another one (friend or lover). But it's just a translation from a french chick, so...

This is a love song. I believe it is about someone who is in love with someone and they keep tellin the person " i told you i would stay" but the other person is wary so is keeping their distance or just making the possibility of a relationship harder. When he sings " maybe sometimes, make it easy, take your time" hes saying can you let up a bit? Look, im still here, i havent gone anywhere. And im not going to, i'm here to stay.
