In A YouTube Video Hozier Says “I Think I Saw Like Like A Painting Of A Shrike. A Shrike Is A Type Of Bird… An Interesting Little Bird Of Prey That Would Kill A Mouse Or A Small Lizard – And Hangs It And Crucifies It Onto A Thorn Bush Or A Barbed Wire Fence… And Eats It There. So It Kind Of Makes It Home In Thorn Bushes… You Can Identify A Shrike’s Nest Just By The Sight Of Crucified Small Animals Around It.” In Talking About The Lyrics He Said “Characterizing Somebody As A Thorn Bush… I Don’t Know How Or Why… But I Definitely – It Was One Of Those Ones Where I Wanted To Write A Song About That. I Had The Lines In Mind But I Just Didn’t Have The Melody. I Didn’t Have The Way To Capture That In Song I Suppose. Paul Brady Would Be A Big Influence For Me… Just Leaning Into Folk Influences As Well.”
