| Sonata Arctica – Letter To Dana Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I very much agree on you rebelj1, this is how I see it; "And I don't want to bother You anymore”, I bet this would be a line he used in all his letters, doing something he doesn’t want to do but he has to do it because he is totally obsessed and he’s saying stuff like “I used to hope you'd come back, But not anymore Dana" just because he’s trying to convince himself he’s over her while he clearly isn’t. Saying “My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen, Your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine”, he knows he has seen it but still he’s protecting the nice image he has of her inside his mind. He even admits that “I think my heart just cannot handle that”, which is the reason to doubt his own eyes. I myself have wanted a girl because I thought she was what I wanted but in reality the person I saw was only fantasy… "And I didn't mean to bother you anymore”, see; he’s saying it again because he’s still obsessed and uses the information he has about her family to contact her. I think it’s like being a stalker. He’s trying to make advantage of her weak moments to show her he’s there for her and in these deaths he finds a reason good enough for him to contact her. ”Now I know someone else's holding you; so, for the first time in my life - I must lie”, I think his lie is that he will tell her he’s happy for her that she’s with some one else now and he also lies that he doesn’t love her anymore while he had said he would wait for ever. It could be that he sticks only to these few letters but I doubt it, although he does have a psycho like diary filled with pages of a girl that doesn’t want him. "Dana, oh, Dana I'm writing to you, I heard you passed away it was a beautiful day, I'm old and I feel time will come for me”, seems a bit like saying the two belong to be together and when one dies the other will die soon aswell. But it also seems a bit strange because the chances of her reading this letter are as big as the chances of her reading his diary which could mean his obsession drove him a bit crazy… This song and “Shy” are my favourite Sonata Arctica songs even though both songs seem very obsessed. This Dana sounds like a very special person which makes me curious about her. Btw; LOL rebelj1, you explained it from your point of few and I did from mine; kinda says what I’m like ^^ |

Hmmz, I don't think it has anything to do with racism either... I think it's about love :P I am one with the world tonight. I am proud to be this far from you. - He's one with the world because his mind is clear and he has the strenght not to seak the attention of this other person You say that you have no regrets, but I know that you do. - He knows that he's the best for the other person and believes that the other person "knows" it too You told me someone stole the eye. I know him too. - A new love ussually starts by eye contact and I think he knows this other guy who stole the eye before stealing the heart I’ve come to the conclusion - yes, I know. That between black and white, there is no room for two. - "black & white" are opposites; so it's about two persons who do't go together very well. I think it's him and the new love The scale might be wide, but there is no need to be blind. - There are a lot of actions that can be taken from this point, but he wants the other one to accept the truth because he believes the other person should know what she wants I leave all of the grey behind. I see clear, I know that I’ll find. - “grey” indicates doubts, so he’s saying he’s gonna leave all uncertainty behind and that now he sees clear he will get what he wants You claim that you are innocent, but tell me who ain't. - Everyone is responsible for their own deeds so you don't have to say "you're sorry" because you did what you wanted to do You think that you’re going to be saved. There’s no such thing as a saint. - This other person isn't better, he won't "save you" (Black and white! Nothing in between Black and white! Nothing is what it seems) - He says that the other guy is completely different than he is and that other guy won’t be a nice person in the end when he shows his true self Well... this is what I make of it, a bit refering to RAC_Hannibal :$ |
