“Amazon” is the seventh track on the self-titled album by Valley Hush. The song grapples with the overwhelming intensity of love through a series of moments suspended in time.
In a track-by-track analysis with Atwood Magazine, Valley Hush had this to say:
This type of love is so rare for me, it ma...
In a field of thorny flowers
In a street with broken bottles
I’d let you lay me down
In a dehydrated desert
In a puddle of burning rain
I’d let you pour me out
In an overcrowded city
In a desolate ghost town
I’d let you take me out
In the fortress of my mind
In a chamber of steel walls
I’d let you break me down
As I lay here staring out your window
Wide awake, you’re fast asleep
I watch a storm form in the distance
And make its way to me
From here the city is just glitter
I pray it hypnotizes me
But by 5AM, I lose hope in sleeping
So I wonder to myself
What does any of this mean?
These fragile, pure, dangling feelings
They’re always hanging by a thread
Like spiders blowing in the wind
Silently, desperately reaching for you
In a field of thorny flowers
In a street with broken bottles
Would’ve let you lay me down
In a dehydrated desert
In a puddle of burning rain
You could have poured me out
In an overcrowded city
In a desolate ghost town
Would’ve let you take me out
In the fortress of my mind
In a chamber of steel walls
You could have broke me down
