| Voltaire – Anniversary Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Haha. No offense, as you are all but none grasp the full meaning of this song. This is from Voltaire's first album, The Devil's Bris. All of the songs in that album have very twisted meanings, some extremely subtle, some not so subtle. This one? Extremely subtle. Where this song takes a twist is: cuz you know everything must change as time goes by like the flowers that dry, locking inside forever their beauty, and beauty He's comparing dried, dead flowers to his girlfriend. Think about that. The rest of the song takes on a whole new meaning. If you'd like it spelled out for you: His girlfriend was unfaithful or did something to shatter his dreams of eternal companionship. So he murdered her and embalmed her as to preserve her beauty. The mood of this song isn't love: It's sociopathic denial. |
