to understand this song, one should read the 17th century Dutch philosopher -Baruch Spinoza. In essence, Spinoza, lthough being a religious Jew, was in effect one of the first heralds of secular (dis-)believes in modern times. Nature is god, said Spinoza, and there is no transcendental one. More then this - there is nothing. Determinism governs the world and free will is an illusion. But our limited mind, of course, it "feels" like we are free, but that's just out epidemiological limit. So, how can we know where leaves falling in the night are blowing? there is no way of knowing. Our...

More then this - there is nothing. Determinism governs the world and free will is an illusion. But our limited mind, of course, it "feels" like we are free, but that's just out epidemiological limit. So, how can we know where leaves falling in the night are blowing? there is no way of knowing. Our lives appear to us an an unfolding, open ended movie. like a dream in the night, we can never know where we are going. Still, deep within us, we ask the question of the determinism we see around us - why the sea on the tide can has no way of turning (e.g, choose is way). We feel we are free, but we see determinism surrounding us. We want the comfort of certainty and absolute knowledge, but also fear it since its consequence will surly mean we are no more then sophisticated automatons. The solution for this dilemma is written in the second stanza: accept the uncertainty and re-joy in it (no care in the world). the official video of the song, appear to support this thesis. It has religious icons and setting (cross, and hell-like environment), Bryan is sitting in a cinema, watching himself play in a scene.
"I know that if I have heaven There is nothing to desire." My interpretation is that since heaven is a place of eternal and absolute bliss, it means that since you have everything in heaven, you don't have a desire for things. I think it's what this part meant

I think what changed is Dylan‘s realization that the real world is the “Kingdom of God within” as Jesus taught rather than the external egoic world

The late Artist Juice WRLD, Expresses his inner battles with addictions, while still knowing he's righteous. "All white Gucci suit, I'm feeling righteous, I know the truth is hard to digest" shows that he tries to be humble and stay a good soul even when addiction is caving in. He mentions doing substances throughout the song while expressing his struggles. Many people often rightfully so proclaim this is one of his most beautiful songs. The music video for this track is highly creative with the first half showing his lifestyle, and then in a creative cut juice wrld jumps into...

The music video for this track is highly creative with the first half showing his lifestyle, and then in a creative cut juice wrld jumps into the crowd but transitions to a anime style animation of him jumping through into the clouds and starts fighting his demons. This song even helped me through heartbreaking news within my family. That listen really was one of the best listens to this track. This track was released on the first posthomous album released in 2020 Titled "Legends Never Die" appropriately titled for the legacy and music juice wrld left us with.
Why does he sing "Learn how to pretend" only once? Does he mean by "We're all alone" that all of us are alone and can't relate, or that we, a couple, are alone and free to react together?

I don't think this album overall is as anti-religion as some would argue. I understand it as a more realist view on religion, cultivating the theme of the two conflictual types of love, a pure and unconditional type and and the sensual/erotic one. I think it's a pretty deep exploration of both and even the name of the album itself has a semnificant meaning if you take the religious context (in christian theology those who become "children of god" basically aren't born from sex anymore, like Christ, so the dichotomy between sex and the spirit is pretty obvious). Now I find...

Now I find this song a genuine love song, probably dedicated to Christ though the lyrics reveal a sort of human nature to this love, without falling into erotism, I see it as a harmony between the two types of love explored throughout the album, but prone to falling anyway, like anything beautiful in this world, with it's sequel "blind love". Overall I find this album probably the most spiritually complex in the swans discography and this song is genuinely beautiful and sincere.
