| Bibio – Wake Up! Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| Of course, the song is openly and widely interpretative, but it strongly leans towards the romantic in its presentation. I have to disagree with the homosexual interpretation. . .at first I thought the same but the song is distinct in the Singers possessing a beard AND hair while the other party has a beard OR hair, leaving it ambiguous or perhaps pointing to multiple people. I always took the butterflies as the fluttery feeling you have when you fall in love, which in the story both escapes and returns and returns again. The signature of love, to me, has always been epitomized by a kiss, hence a kiss upon the brow, an expression of affection. Perhaps, the fall upon my lap line is in reference to humankind being a creation of God, hence, the signature of God falling into his Lap is literally a person falling affenctionately there.The other bulk is widely diaphanous, could have endless meanings but always leaves me with a weirdly wonderful, floating feeling. I agree 100 percent with the parallel structure, each line is not close-ended but rather loops seamlessly into the next and back towards the former. It reminds of the ourborous concept of things always returning right back where they started. Hands down, my favorite song. Ever. | |
