hozier really said the heartbreak is inevitable and so is the finish line. forever is a lie we tell ourselves. you don't get to the end of your life without feeling a crushing weight on your chest and that's all there is. every path and every bond and every relationship comes to a breaking final point so face it But. this goes both ways. death is rebirth and we move on. and we begin anew and start new journeys and new loves and don't ever let the inevitability of the end keep you from this cycle. all things end for the better or for worse all things end for the better or for worse!!!! and don't you dare keep it from beginning anew!!!! he is so sick man so sick

I’m thinking about how Wasteland, Baby was a call to action and a tongue-and-cheek acceptance of the end of the world. And how Eat Your Young and Unreal Unearth are about the nine circles of Hell, about the afterlife, about the consequences after death. I’m thinking about one album cover being under water and another being buried under earth, about NFWMB “ain’t it like thunder under earth the sound it makes”, about Unreal Unearth and unearthing something, un-burial, about Like Real People Do “what did you bury before those hands pulled me from the earth.”

I’m thinking Eat Your Young, about Kronos’ mythology, about hunger for and to keep power, about gluttony. I’m thinking about Swan Upon Leda, about the lust Zeus had for Leda, about the greed of man over bodies, about who is the sinner. I’m thinking about angels, about their lack of power in Swan Upon Leda “could never belong to angels”, about their fall from grace in the “Unknown” song “I thought you were like an angel/going unknown as any angel/you called me angel.”

I’m thinking about Hozier.

gonna be real with you, I don't think the "brutally robbing a younger generation of their future through the gluttony of capitalism and senseless war" song is about oral sex. I think you're just horny.

no but the way grief and trying to be happy are so well balanced in all things end, wailing that all things end but that doesnt mean we didnt give it our all because some things just end, even if we don't want them to no one touch me im a wreck listening to this

I feel like I'm seeing only one interpretation of "Who We Are" and the iconic line "To hold me like water/Or Christ, hold me like a knife" and as someone who has done martial arts and knife work, as well as an English major, I'd like to throw in my two cents.

So what I've seen are the metaphorical interpretations (mostly on TikTok too) where they compare water to life/sustenance and a knife to death/injury to the narrator, and so the narrator wants to be held like something life-saving or, in a desperation to be held at all, held like they're something dangerous.

I think the opposite.

From a martial arts perspective, if you're the one holding the knife, you're not a danger to yourself. Obviously, if a weapon is involved at all there is a level of danger, but it is way more difficult for the person/thing on the other end. They have to be concerned about near 360-degree mobility of the wrist and the ability to change hands quickly, so targeting the hand holding the knife becomes trying to completely isolate it from the other side of the body while also preventing the wrist from rotating. I'd much prefer to be the one holding the knife.

Meanwhile, there are other lines in the song to suggest that the knife is more valuable than water.

The opening lines are:

You only feel it when it's lost Gettin' through still has a cost Quietly, it slips through your fingers, love Falling from you drop by drop

This is what it sounds like when you're trying to hold water. No matter how tightly you cup your hands, it will find cracks and spill through. And you'll feel it when it's lost; your empty hands will be wet.

Now look at the chorus:

We're born at night So much of our lives Is just carving through the dark To get so far

The knife is being used to carve through the dark. It is vital, a means of survival.

And also, just think of how your hands are when you hold something like water versus something like a knife.

One is loose and gentle, open. The other is gripped, tightly. If I were touch-starved, I wouldn't want a gentle hand to cup my face, I'd want someone to hold me in a vice as if doing so would mean they are protected from danger, ready to face the darkness.

This is the circle of anger, after all.
