| Katatonia – Wealth Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
This song may be about someone killing themselves, with the aid of another person. Unfortunetly I can't make sense of the first line, however... "Will you be here when I try, I'm not set cannot do it yet" Here the narrator still lacks the determination to kill himself, and wants his friend(or lover, or family member) to be with him when he does. "Our wealth breeds emptiness" The Narrator is wealthy, and yet feels his life is hollow and without meaning, without purpose. "My lips are dry you gave me drugs to try" The last four lines are what really lead me to believe that this is a song about suicide. In this line The Narrator has taken whatever drugs he was given(by his friend/lover/family member) to kill himself. "Hold me when I die The sky has frozen to a wall We die we all" Now the Narrator is finally dying. "The sky has frozen to a wall", this could mean he feels utterly trapted, as if the sky is a glass cieling, constituting a prison from wich there is no escape. In the last line of the song (We die we all) perhaps the Narrator feels when his existence ends, so does everyone's existence. |

| That interlude after Mikael sings "in to death..." is fucking ace. | |

| Anders Nordin did indeed write this song, Mikael said it himself in a interview. | |
| Katatonia – Burn the Remembrance Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I agree with Death in Fire, I think the song is about a failed relationship. In the third verse we get a glimpse of when Jonas first realized the relationship woudln't work, I believe. | |

I have a differen't interpretation of the first verse. I read it like this: When did I say this: "I will never leave" I can't recall this moment in my life He(Jonas) is leaving, while someone is wanting him to stay. This person quotes him as saying he would never leave, but he argues that he never said "I will never leave". In the next verse Jonas is essentially giving us(or the person) the reason for his departure, and it has to do with his troubled past. Maybe he feels he will only bring trouble if he stays. The last verse is difficult to comprehend. "Murderers come my way, someday you will join them" Perhaps whatever Jonas did in the past caused a bounty to be placed on his head, and even the person who wants him to stay would kill him, if they knew what it was he did. |
