AMAZING... the vocals, the imagery......
HAUNTING
Is anyone else here trying to decipher the meaning behind the collection of songs and videos??
the beginning lyrics in the latest video are
You gave me life
In return i'll just pretend.....
You will watch it burn
It seems like the entire theme is explaining some sick, mentally abusive yet addiciting relationship.... in the first few videos she was being "born", then she was dressed in mud, possibly representing growth from the earth. When she was playing the piano in "b" the tape could very well be a representaiton of someone being trapped, or even a representation of Death via a play on mummification.....
And the latest video can be the "end" of the entire process where she truly is "dead" and merely a muse of her lover. I see it as someone who was lost in life But found happiness and purpose in a relationship that eventually became unhealthy.... hence the lyrics "you gave me life, so i'll just pretend, you will watch it burn" .......
and in the lyrics to "b" she says "resting in the quick sand, shoulder to shoulder, and in hand......wanting higher" ....so maybe as a couple they both are reaching for the ideal "best" while accepting that in reality their only tearing each other apart and slowly sinking.. IRONY??
....................and yeah this was NOT supposed to be an essay
