@[Obelizk:176] Like the interpretation. This has got to be one of my favorite songs of all time, one of the most beautiful, meaningful, if a bit cryptic, of the rock era. I've often wondered about the lyrics. When one listened to the song, regardless of whether we understood the intended meaning or not, we understand the the less cryptic words and the musical accompaniment. At first, the music is fantastical, pure, wonderful. By the end of the piece, profound decay and transformation is represented. Why? I am hesitant to admit it, but I think the song is referring to the human species' path, way back in older times, and now. This isn't the only song that describes something as similar. On Terrapin Station (song): While you were gone, those spaces filled with darkness. The obvious was hid. With nothing to believe in, the compass always points to Terrapin". Ok then, I don't wish to ramble. I believe the song actually refers to an ET agenda that's been going on, whether we wish it or not, since who knows when. "Though you've seen them, please dont tell a soul" may be taken as a reference to the policy of silence and suppression practiced today when it comes to the hidden ET aspect which many of us are ignorant of or refuse to believe despite the evidence and admissions. More importantly, the music at the end can be interpreted as the decay and dark transformation of our species into something else, over generations, by the resulting imposition of that agenda upon us all. Anyhow its just a brief take on this excellent song, there's a lot more to be explained. |
