Christ its closer to allegory then metaphor, as I said before wait until you've done more than fourth grade english please. All you really know is about periods and punctuations, stick to that. Its imagery, simple as that.

I get what you're saying but I'm saying it seems like he's trying to say something a little deeper than I went into the backyard to cool down.

With Wolf and Oberst, it seems like they just picked a random set of words that sound "deep", then came up with the meaning later, even though they are probably not even sure themselves.

Yes, but that part isn't about cancer its about getting away from it all in the garden with the cancer patient, nothing metaphorical about it.

It still sounds like a metaphor.

So if you saw that line at first glance, isolated from the rest of the song, you'd think he was being literal?
