SILENT COMEDY

- Bartholomew Lyrics

Oh my god
Please help me, knee deep in the river tryin' to get clean
He says wash your hands, get out the stains
But you best believe, boy, there's hell to pay
Yeah you best believe, boy, there's hell to pay, sayin'
Come on

Oh my god
Please help me, waist deep in the river, can you hear my plea?
He says, son, you come like a beggar in the street
You might make it, boy, but by the skin of your teeth
You might make it, boy, but by the skin of your teeth, sayin'

I rambled with the worst of them
Fell in love with a harlequin
Saw the darkest hearts of men
And I saw myself starin' back again
And I saw myself starin' back again

Oh my god
Please help me, neck deep in the river screamin' for relief
He says, it's mine to give, but it's yours to choose
You're gonna sink or swim, you're gonna learn the truth
No matter what you do you're gonna learn the truth sayin'

Ate the bread that once was stone
Fell from a cliff, never broke a bone
Bowed down to get the kings overthrown
And I'm all alone and the fire grows
And I'm all alone and the fire grows

La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la

Swing sweet charity(La la la la la la la la la la la)
Take what's left of me(La la la la la la la la la la la)
A new beginning or is this the end?(La la la la la la la la la la la)
Swing sweet Seraphim(La la la la la la la la la la la)
Take me back again(La la la la la la la la la la la)
Or watch me make the messes of men(La la la la la la la la la la la)

What is the meaning behind Bartholomew lyrics?


When we try to interpret the meaning, the Silent Comedy's 'Bartholomew' is a metaphorical representation of the river in which one can either drown or swim depending on one's level of depth. It is a depiction of the revelatory journey, wherein one has to be resilient and learn from the hardships. Ever since the beginning of the song, the lyrics of Bartholomew have been wrangling over angst, love, reflection, despair, and solitude. Moreover, the song emphasizes the necessity of redemption and the seeking of help, struggle, and the self-reflection that follows, as well as the consequences of one's choices. The lyrics include mature themes such as struggle, redemption, and existential reflection, which may not be appropriate for children under the age of 13. The visuals of being 'knee-deep in the river' paired with 'hell to pay' are indicative of extreme emotional situations, while 'the darkest hearts of men' could be seen as a reference to sinister themes and, thus, might be considered unsuitable for the young ones.
