Thank you for your interpretation of the "dark star". If you're right, those lyrics are even more beautiful than I thought. Maybe the "dark star" is a way to express a feeling of shared intimacy with the "child". If it were shiny, it would be too visible, too exposed, too ordinary. It's a way to tell someone that he's simply not capable of understanding the profound link between the "mother" and the "child". |

The lyrics newly available from the official website corroborate the submitted lyrics here. But it's always been tough to understand clearly this band's lyrics. cheers. |

There's a clash between two tendencies in a woman. But it's not quite schizophrenia. Consider it like the inner fight that takes place between two opposite personal "penchants" in your mind. More of a dispute between you're two "leanings". On one side, you have the caring woman, who worries about what people think of her doings, about her duties to society, some of which she likes to impose upon herself even if no one forces her to. Her aim is to pass for a person who is sacrificing herself out of goodness. She pretends to be part of greater good and maybe she even believes it. However, she acts out of pure vanity, but wants to sell it as a great virtue. She's Tiffany. On the other side, you have the narrator. This voice would be the part of herself that doesn't give a damn and does what she wants, the way she wants. Without lying to herself about her intrinsic motives. In deed, this side founds selfish pleasure in Tiffany's masochistic attitude. She's prone to harshness and tends to be in control. This more self-honest side can't bear Tiffany's sanctimonious acting. I have to admit that the video gave me a lot of help in this interpretation. I didn't quote de lyrics, but if someone's interested out there and thinks I'm not totally mislead, I can submit explanations of the metaphors I see in the song. Thnks. |
