| M83 – My Tears Are Becoming a Sea Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
According to the booklet the Lyrics are: I'm slowly drifting to you The stars and the planets Are calling me A billion years away from you I'm on my way I'm on... I'm on... So I don't think it's about dying. Looking at the album context (Brother and sister kind of communicating through their dreams), this is the first song on the "Brother"-half of the double album. He has desperately been searching for his sister and ended up far, far away from her and therefore is mourning. But in the end, he's leaving to find her. That's my interpretation. |

| Everything Everything – Leave the Engine Room Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I agree with magicmenagerie on this one, I think it's about if guilt can be inborn. That's why he says "Your father was bad, his father was bad" and the others say he is "as guilty as the ones that came before". I also agree that "the Engine Room" is the womb. Combining this with the things SoftMint mentioned above and the killing/abortion references in the lyrics ("Bombs dropping", "Nerves butchered") it's maybe that the child is killed immidiately after it's born (immidiately after leaving the engine room) due to its guilt. The last part where he is kind of admiting that he is guilty shows the cruelty of all this. The child, who's still small can't do anything about it and can't seem to justify itself in any way. So it just, after all, takes the blame. Because it has no other chance. At least that's my interpretation. Pretty cruel, I woudln't have thought this because the song is so calm and beautifull. And the references f the child in a womb are also quite peacefull. Maybe there is another thing hidden here, but I can't seem to find it out now. |
