A different interpretation: It's someone talking to themselves - their 'dark' side or shadow side speaking to their normal or sensible side - which is only sometimes aware of the other side. It's that moment in life when you realise you've been hiding away this faceade of you that has always been too dark for you to face, but has help you through shit at some point, and its time to acknowledge, to respect the inner, shadow being. Makes a change from the relationship stuff.. doesn't it :) |

"While the crowd is waiting for the final kiss The one which allows them to sleep well" Like the end of a movie - the happy ending in a fantasy setting e.g. play/movie etc. "We walk along a wrong path..." It's happy endings of what we see or what we want, and the relative ease that always seems to be the case in movies and dramas, versus what real life is like. This song to me sounds like it's like a cry for help, or atleast a need for acknowledgment in a period of pain/growth. If we don't get that, if there's no respite in the pain, then we give up and become the crowd waiting for the final kiss, just so we can sleep well hoping that some day that this will happen to us, instead of us making it happen. This is a song of the ideal (2 lines) versus the real (14 lines) hard work needed for life/relationships/desires to be fulfilled. |
