| Islands – Swans (Life After Death) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Ok my theory on Swans / the album as a whole: Swans is the overture. A person (nick) wakes up on an island the day he was supposed to die (see: who will cut our hair when we're gone?) It covers all the action of the album (waking up, going into a whale, cannibalism etc..) Humans: they're running out of food, resort to cannibalism don't call me whitney, bobby: after the cannibalism, he's regretful and talks to the skeleton as his only friend on the tropical island Rough Gem: doesn't really fit in except the "who lives in those lights.." verse. That verse can be thought of as "wow look there are lights.. we should go there because it's people" Tsuxiit: traveling music Where there's...: Get into a whale.. hanging out in a whale.. traveling in a whale.. fun times Jogging Gorgeous Summer: Having met people inside the whale and eaten a few, the hero falls in love. Volcanoes: Their island is a volcano. Lots of people die because they think they angered the gods. Alaska melts. If: getting tired of the person that the hero is with, he threatens that if they're not sweet to him, he'll "salt you to make you savory", implying he'd eat them, too Ones: depressed about the whole thing, the hero retreats into his mind. please note that half of this is sarcastic, the other half i believe. |
