Cavetown: Feb 14 Meaning

Song Released: 2019

Feb 14 Lyrics

She rubs my back for me
On February fourteen
She says that I'll do great
That's not what's scaring me
I get up on my feet
Give her one last hug
They're all waiting for me
I wish that was enough
I got your letter
Hope you feel...

   I'm interpreting this as how he is an aromantic, wanting to feel and reciprocate the romantic love of others but he can't and ended up breaking this girl's heart..

   I think this song is about heart break on Valentine’s Day.
   
   She rubs your back
   Saying you’ll do just fine without he
   
   But at that moment that’s not what we think of. “That’s not what’s scaring me”
   Getting up on your feet
   To give her one last hug
   
   
   “They’re all waiting for me, I wish that was enough”
   
   Meaning all the fans of Cavetown are waiting and he wishes it was enough but he misses who knew him best.
   
   Think I zoned out again
   
   My best show?
   Hope you were impressed...?
   
   Meaning he’s playing gigs now. Touring around. But he feels alone and numb and empty. Blacking out before a show because nothing feels real or perminant anymore
   
   The bridge is a flashback
   
   Saying he’s just trying to buy those few seconds as she was walking out.
   
   She turns around
   And says happy Valentine’s Day.
   
   And final crack in his stability. Completely breaking himself in that moment.
   
   Feeling my body falling away, I’ll see you again someday
   
   Implies (I believe at least) either suicide and hoping to see her again someday no longer able to bear the pain
   
   OR
   
   Possibly that feeling of falling away is a drug trip of sorts. Numbing yourself with alchohol and drugs hoping one day she would come back through the door. Even though she wont

   I'm pretty sure it's about him not wanting to go on tour because he's gonna be homesick and miss his friends (and we all know how much Robbie loves his friends) but I have no clue
