| Regina Spektor – Lacrimosa Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I think this song is about human kind "playing" (with controversial subjects coming into mind, i.e., cloning) God/Nature. With all this advancement in science and technology, the only thing we cannot overcome is death, our own mortality. In a way, Regina is mocking us with "planting bones in the ground" bit and how they won't grow. Some of us are so arrogant or too self-confident in our own reason....thinking that our science will eventually answer EVERYTHING and overcome all our problems. This is all enhanced bringing in Icarus.... Extremely clever, I love this song. I too, would like to point out that I am not religious - just for the curious. |
