I was told valo is really into the whole romeo and juliet story, and that would make sense...b/c it is a very dark and lovely shakespear poem that deals with death...something valo really seems to have on his mind. so in light of that knowledge i feel as if this song (and some of thier others) is about the dark story of love. the lyrics "let me bleed you this song of my heart deformed, lead you along this path in the dark, where i belong till i feel your warmth." reminds me of what juliet's position to romeo was, where she would have taken the poison and fallen asleep till romeo came and woke her to start thier new life together in bliss. Also the lyrics, "I am the nightmare waking you up, from the dream of a dream of love." would'nt you think romeo being dead when juliet awoke would be a "nightmare" for her as she THOUGHT she was awaking from her dreams...to THIER dream of having a life of love together...and instead finding a lifeless romeo laying there?! if you read the lyrics you can see a poetic view from valo of his understanding and reinactment of the most popular love story in history!! my favorite him song!! any thoughts on my opinion??? |

I surely cant believe no one has caught the TRUE meaning of this song which i figured out one day while driving and thinking about it!!! This song is about religion and how it has people "forever waiting for disaster" like in the book of revelations i.e. the end of the world,...and how it teaches us to "pray for rain, lose our names and watch all our dreams fall through" do to dedication of following in the footsteps of the bibles teachings Praying for the end of the world and giving up any selfish ways. Clearly a.f.i. is implying that following the bible is a waste of time and almost a travesty, wasting our lives on something that does not exsist according to them. The song is sung by davey who is singing as if mocking god and preachers. "Scream with me" sounds a lot like sing with me, which we hear at church just before singing out of a book of songs...again, mocking church rituals. "What david calls servant and master...will you PLAY it too?...as this DISPLACEMENT begs for WATER"...Depeche modes song "master and servant" sung by DAVID, the lead singer of the group, is about a game of submission. Thus the lyrics "will you play it too?" Speaking of the submissive ways of a religous person...And we all know to be baptized calls for water, which "as this DISPLACEMENT calls for water" is implying baptism ,a submissive path we take to dedicate our lives to god...is a displacement. Finally the last part of the song which gives us the vision of someone dying and going underground and growing pale WITHOUT YOU, is afi's way of saying after life lived for god, you did it all for nothing..."as I grow PALE WITHOUT YOU". Throw in all the Church Music as those last lyrics are sung and you get the complete feel of afi's true meaning of the interview!!! |
