Anathema – Electricity Lyrics 17 years ago
OR

Another way I actually just kinda saw it as was that the singer is a more dangerous figure than it seems. Perhaps the singer is an abusive and violent (next song "Violence"?..) person in the relationship, yet there was some odd sort of excitement, or Electricity, in the relationship that made the girl stay. Fear of him made her unsure all the time, but she never fully understood, so she's stayed with him. Finally, this song tells her that she seriously must leave this seemingly good, yet horrible relationship before something really bad happens.... IE: Violence.

Anathema – Electricity Lyrics 17 years ago
When I listen to this song, to me Electricity is that strong connection of love that grows merely out of being in a relationship for a very long time, and the longer it's there, the stronger it holds. Even when things get incredibly bad, the fear of change and loss takes over. At this point in this person's relationship, they've lost a great deal of understanding, and have gotten to a point where they can't seem to know how either of them feels. The singer seems to understand, though, that the best thing would be to be rid of each other, but time makes it so hard to do so. I guess that's just what I was feeling when I listened to it.
