Lyric discussion by hejames12 

I believe that the lyrics of the song pose a series of ironies that provides the imagery of the so-called "natural disaster". The most profound example of this is Bird's use of the phrase "Anthurium Lacrimae decays underneath the canopies like a natural disaster." Anthurium is a genus of flower that thrives in moist, organic compost, and Lacrimae is Latin for tears. Therefore, this type of flower should theoretically give life to itself. By being a flower of tears, it should thrive on its own despite the conditions present. By saying that this flower decays, Bird is showing the scope of this fictional "natural disaster." Also, way to copy and paste your interpretation straight off a website Cyberghost.
