Beach House "House of Chambers" Interpretation
|
|
So I was going on my quest to take over @palacelight’s #1 Beach House schlar spot earlier when I came to this song. Because of the youthful setting through a mature lens vibe that Devotion gives off, I read this sng, and this line specifically to be about a grandmother who raised her children alone that is able to find love again when she gets a grandchild. It could also easily be read that it’s about a wise lover but I’m not sure.

I was discussing this earlier with @Heisenferg and we couldn’t come to a solid conclusion. Would love to hear from @ewokABdevito, @DaveHowell, @nietzsche, @thescrivener /any Beach House fans etc.
