What first strikes me about this album cover is a what looks like a plastic display of Florance's Lungs as she is captured in a mid-shot .This may show she is a very direct and creative artist and by showing her insides on the cover she may be directly referring to her feelings and emotions .So to me this indicates what the album is really about .her gaze is at a lowered angel at herself , like she is looking within.Her body language is that her hands are fully up like she is surrendering and as I've mentioned the symbol of her feelings , together they may imply she is surrendering to her feelings .
In the background you can see some nature some lovely un-blossomed flowers that may be a direct reference to her , along with the beautiful birds with long coloured feathers yet they are not flying or spreading their wings .The curtain implies that she has more to reveal than the cover states behind the curtain , were the album is placed .The black background may state that she is in the dark about something, and the childlike writing and writing + instead of and may suggest the album may also be about learning and could specifically be from her experiences.The white then continues from around the writing to bring the hole image together . 
The back cover is black and white . Assumable that the artists is making it black and white for us , in other words simple , she has even drawn you a diagram pointing to each part of the insides and numbering it with a song almost showing a musical journey trough her insides . Or on a more literal level , were her music came from .
