| The Doors – The Crystal Ship Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| a crystal ship would fly, he would rather fly. Who in the hell would be dumb enough to put a crystal ship in the water. Crystal ships fly through the stars. "those relationships can lead to no where, but they're not supposed to." Only a thousand girls get on to that crystal ship | |
| The Doors – The Crystal Ship Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| The crystal ship is a ship to be boarded on the other side by Jim's self procliamted "Lords and New Creatures", in plain english] It is a metaphor for the vessel or destination trip to the vessel of a separate race of people or a different faculty of human thought. An absolute and unchanging goal and meaningful transition to the next life. The song in itself is a beautiful reminder for people to have hopes and admirations to one day board the crystal ship. It is truly an optimistic song | |

This is the most thin veneer of a doors songs response I have ever come across. I begin to doubt you've heard the song and were merely practicing your writing skills on a beautiful song. The doors are not meant to be listened to in separate verses, it is one song it tells one story not separate quips. Not one last kiss, another kiss. Love does not die, it fades in hope that it is not wounded to badly. Another kiss not one last goodbye kiss, i don't think he had intentions of his early day poetry to his first love being a goodbye song. This is a I want you back song. I'm not entirely sure what he means by unconsciousness, I speculate dreams opposed to the more hopeless subconscious. A subconscious is a guiding force, not a realm where memories of people dwell in misery. Perhaps unconsciousness is his spirits desire to Learn To Forget (x4) in order to keep Jim moving on from a spoiled love. Not rotted, love does die he always loved Mary no matter what. As I read on, the incompetence of what you're having people read about this song is worrisome. You are analyzing them with such little insight to what The Doors were about and what they were trying to communicate it feels like this was a school project a student had to complete for class, it's just hard to believe this came from a doors fan. He's separated from Mary, why would he be writing about how much fun he is having to her? "Hey I'm writing this song to tell you how much fun I'm having,.. take me back." The days are bright and filled with pain enclose me in your gentle rain does Not mean a single thing none at all, it is one of the most beautifully poetic lines ever written that is about a boy missing a girl. Everyday sucks when you're away from your love, their too bright he just wants to hide. He wants this girl to surround him. Of course, why would you not think you're destined to meet the one you love? God oh god why, why did you write these things? He does't know a thing about what she knows of her own freedom. He's asking her, he's begging her, he's wooing her to reveal what she truly believes in an attempt to tempt her back to him. He knows she has the soul right to do whatever she pleases. Mary's freedom is not found on the streets, she always has the freedom to be with whatever man she wants. She did not have countless reasons for ending it, he harassed her. He knew how much she loved him and he tortured her, then he bailed and went to California. In his later years he said if he could do it all over, (understand this is James Douglas, amongst others speaking) he would have lived a quiet life and written poetry. He hated himself and pushed himself to death at 27, he hated his success. Again, the streets are fields that never die is nobly another piece of poetry. "Memorize your alleys on an endless road.;"I wanna lie in an open field Want the snakes to suck my skin Want the worms to be my friends." The band hated him and then when he died they hated each other. He hated people, there is a gif of him saying he hates people. FUCK NO the crystal ship is not the band, the crystal ship is whatever you want it to be. I say its the north star, and if you're lucky you actually get to take a magic carpet ride on a crystal ship when you break on through to the other side. Only a thousand girls get on so guys find your gals :) Then again it would be wrong to say that wasn't Jim Morrisons destiny to live a life as he did. but he really truly loved Mary so it's up in the air flying around. |
