| Oh and demimondaine , I believe the box is the same box as they should shut the people inside to watch them perish. That's why I believe they said THE box and not A box. | |

So basically, this is my personal analyzis; The first row, while maybe a reference to Edgar Allan Poe as earlier suggested, i've interpreted it as in "hide the petals" = "hide the beuty". "Underneath the bedroom floorboard" for me was "keep it to yourself". And they will wither without fail or success; basically, I believe this song is about shut people. Without trying you can neither fail nor succeed, and add the first row and you find a generic insecure person; insecure for how his ideas will be taken, thus keeping silent. "Put the people in the hollow box they crafted, bolt the doors and watch them perish." - Doesn't everyone create a mirrorimage of themselves? To look better in public? To me that's what this row is about. Shut them in and watch them selfdestroy. "Its a cautious descent, so polite and pensive at first." - It slowly fades, slowly you adapt the ways of the society to solve your problems, and you create this mirror image as everyone else. "But the only truth is change, have patience" - It won't always be like this, later on, when grown up, people change, gain self-confidence and gets less caring for how they are looked upon. "So brave in the face of all those roots that ruin, to stand so tall when in fact in ruins." - Finally breaking free, facing the roots that keeps the true person locked inside the hollow box; stand tall while torn apart inside and stand for his own ideas and not adapting; joining up in the parade of a social structure. "To face that corner of the box and dive in, just the sound alone of its humble breath." - Give in to yourself! "A murmur from the ruins echoes softly as the roots undo, and the branch becomes..." - You will barely notice the changes from being a hollow box to becoming youself, you will change but people won't look down upon you for it, you have created your own roots and when you break them there is only a murmur in the back of your head. "and the branch becomes..." seems to indicate that the person changes due to this, but it's not yet known to who. |

| What does the "(lunar) sacrifice on the eighth or ninth." mean? I've been doing my best but hopefully someone from america can explain this, as search engines turns out to be worthless. | |

I just listened to this song, and then I mean really listened to it, for the first time. Had it on my computer for ages but just listened to parts and didn't like it. now afterwards i can state that it was the biggest mistake I have ever made. This song means so much to me at the moment, its a perfect reflection of emotions, it is so raw and naked and truthful that it hurts to listen to it, but at the same time I can't stop doing it. It's perfect. The voice matchers perfectly every word spoken, and not only by the sound of it but also the emotions you so clearly here behind every word that is sung. It's amazing to see this phenomen, that one minute can give me headache and the entire song makes me go all emotional while listening to it. At the moment I'm listening through the rest of CoC's songs since this one brought a whole new meaning of music upon me by both capturing the movements from the classical music and the raw feelings from emocore. Unbelievable. Had to make this account just to post this; I definitely think EVERYONE who reads this should give it a shot even if you don't like it at first. It might be worth is. |
