Here’s what Thao has to say about this song in an interview:
You know, “Marauders” is actually the most straightforward love song that I’ve written. But in that, nodding to the weight and baggage a person brings into a relationship, and what you ask your partner to bear and work through with you.
(...
[Verse 1]
My darlin', your patience, rain it on me
I know daughters of marauders are just so hard to please
I got that poison, carve it on out
Barely served me then
Only hurts me now
[Chorus]
But you look like I could stay
Let all my intentions fall away
Kill all my defenses where they lay
Say all that's left to say
What to say
What to say
To me
[Post-Chorus]
Be sweet
Be soft with me
Be kind to me
Be kind to me
[Verse 2]
Oh, how the haunted get so mean
The faith they shake
And their failure to dream
I got a hold on the handle
Won't let it loose
A fearful heart automatically moves
[Chorus]
But you look like I could stay
Let all my intentions fall away
Kill all my defenses where they lay
Say all that's left to say
What to say
What to say
[Bridge]
I am here now
I am here now
I am here now
I took it all in stride
I who would mistreat time
I never wondered why
[Outro]
I got that poison, carve it on out
Barely served me then
And it only hurts me now
My darlin', your patience, rain it on me
I know daughters of marauders are just so hard to please
Daughters of marauders are just so hard to please
Daughters of marauders are just so hard to please
