The juice is love. She poured out all of her love for him and received nothing back. She had no more love to give so he left. She finally found someone who could give her the juice (love) she wanted. He got jealous and upset and he was ready to give her all his love but sadly died. So fucking beautiful. Nice job. I love you Robbie.

Ok, have I misunderstood the story on this for two years? Because I thought it was: Lime gives everything to lemon > lemon leaves when lime has nothing more > lime finds lemon's cork and is overcome with loss > lime slowly recovers and finds orange, who heals lime > lemon returns and decides to try and make amends, but is killed by the turtle in doing so > orange and lime mourn lemon.
But I just noticed the turtle scene is shot like a flashback, making the story: Lime gives everything to lemon > lemon leaves when lime has nothing more > lime finds lemon's cork and is overcome with loss > lime slowly recovers and finds orange, who heals lime > it's revealed that when lemon left, they realised their mistake and tried to fill their jar, then died, making lime finding lemon's cork far more tragic > lemon returns but as a ghost, at which point we see what happened to them with the turtle > orange and lime mourn lemon.
It doesn't quite make sense, because if the second version is true, how could lemon be following lime and stalking lime and orange? But the flashback at 2:47 shows the earlier scene when lemon left, but extended to show they changed their mind and went back; and also establishes that the cork falling out at 1:25 is because lemon died. So does lime know lemon died, hence carrying around their cork in mourning? Is lemon following lime a hallucination, is lemon a ghost at that point like later on?
Seems stupid to overanalyse, but it's a beautiful song and video, and I don't know if I've simply got it wrong for two years or if it's very loose and open to interpretation. The different possibilities are so different, though - in one, lemon only tries to make amends after they see lime and orange together. In the other, lemon tried to make amends much earlier but died before being able to do so, leaving lime alone without knowing what lime tried to do until later. Which is even more goddamn heartbreaking.

Relationships take effort from both sides in order to work. The lime gave all its love to the lemon and it drained itself in the process. The lemon got used to absorbing all this love and never gave anything in return. It became angry when their relationship became strained and exhausted so it ran. Lime found Orange who put in as much effort in the relationship as it did, and their relationship flourished. Lemon realized its mistake and how much it truly loved Lime, but never got to tell it because it was scared and was eaten by a tortoise. Maybe the tortoise represents being overcome with fear, depression, and/or self hate?

the way i interpret this is that the lemon is robin, the lime is the girl that green is about, and the orange is her new "boyfriend". robin said in the description of this song on bandcamp that green is about a girl he loved but he didn't treat as well as he should have, she gave him everything she could and he didn't. when our little lemon guy tries to give back it ends badly and it seems like he was coming off selfish, meanwhile the lime found someone who gave her what she deserved. in the end, they all gain closure and are able to be okay with the past and move on. she was upset and angry but moved on and grew with someone who gave her everything. it's not a completely happy ending but there are no hard feelings towards each other

this song reminds me of my old friend who moved away years ago. we were friends for a long time and we fantasized about one day being vets together at our future animal hospital "pet palace". we were so childlike and when we were together i had no worries at all. we were so close. we had imaginary pets hers was a cat named spark and i had a dog named scout. she was just so warm and kind. then in the 3rd grade (yeah we were lil kids) she told me she was moving away to texas. i figured we were playing make believe and so i put my little hand to my ear and said "my mom called! i am too!" her eyes turned darker. she said "no....maisie. im not kidding." the expression on my faced changed. i remember walking to class, crying.
a few months later it was the last day of school. she would be moving that summer and it was the last time i would see her (and i still havent to this day) i got to my stop and i gave her a big hug. i remember feeling her tear fall on my shoulder and i bet mine did too. my mom awaited me outside the door and i said to her "i have to go. im so sorry." i turned to the door and i didn't look back. god, i wish i had looked back. my mom was comforting me and i was still crying. my best friend gone. and i dont think she realizes how much i care about her. i miss you veronica. (god im sorry im so sensitive my computer is wet with tears)

my interpretation of this: lime does everything for lemon. they’re best friends. the juice is a metaphor for the energy they put into the relationship, and lime is happy to give everything to lemon. lemon gets upset that lime is doing everything for him so he runs away. upset, like moves on to find orange. lime and orange begin to share juices, and it’s a balanced relationship. while lime and orange are out there being best friends or dating, lemon realizes that he shouldn’t have left, and he feels guilty. after lemon dies, lime gets upset again, but lemon hopes that he’s happy with orange.
