| Björk – Mutual Core Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| This song is actually about the shift of earth, and no matter how much man tries to intervene mother nature will do what she wants to form a mutual core. Mutual core stands for her plan, and although we may never know the meaning to it the "shifting" will continue until she is done. | |
| Florence + the Machine – Seven Devils Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
I believe this song is referring to the Catholic church and it's massive cover-up of child molestation cases. Please refer to stanza 1 and 2. Right our of the gate she sings about "holy war" and "armies". To me that clearly states "Holy" meaning the pious nature the church holds over humanity is legions upon millions who believe in the word of the bible. The Catholic church is at the center of the particular song. "I don't want your money, I don't want your crown", clear indignation of the alter boys who were promised gifts, love, security. Florence is singing in first person as the POV of that child that has already been abused. A chilling tale of something wicked this way comes for the priest. "Holy water could not help you now" Florence (again from child's POV) is condemning the abuser and becomes aware that she too has died (philosophically speaking emotionally). "I'll be dead before the day is done." |
