The Smashing Pumpkins – Thirty Three Lyrics | 19 years ago |
wow thanks so much buffstuff34!! i agree wif most of the stuff youd said. so as we all know, the lyric speaks of the final hours of jesus, but id like to point at the title thirtythree, its the age when jesus died, so to be more specific, this song is about what happened WHEN jesus died. "tomorrow's just an excuse away", like how buffstuff34 had put it, he couldve *not* died. but what had to come would eventually come, like tomorrow, however we hate what we know is going to happen, it will eventually come. so lets cut the excuses, tomorrow will come, but we should not be afraid, bcos "love can last forever" and most importantly "YOU can make it last forever", as the word "you" is repeated over and over again; its also the last word of the song indicating "you" are the most important in making love last forever. and i think this would be like the theme of this song. like, everyone, sometimes we know that although weve had a lot of bad times already, worse things are still waiting, but since what needs to come will come, let us throw away our "excuse[s]" bcos "love can last forever" and "you can make it last, forever you"! ( i hope i havent repeated myself!!) |
