"I took that as a metaphor for the times when I was learning to play guitar — [talking about the lyric 'With every guitar string scar on my hand / I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover'] — I played ’til my fingers bled as a kid, and I still have those marks from that, and all the times I’d be changing a string and it’d pop, and I still have scars from that. But it’s also a bigger metaphor for – in life, you accumulate scars, you accumulate hurt, you accumulate moments of learning, disappointment and struggle and all that, and if someone’s going to take your hand, they better take your hand, scars and all".
