| Bauhaus – The Passion Of Lovers Lyrics | 9 years ago |
|
On the surface level, an orgasm is known to the French as "la petit mort" or "the little death". On the not so surface level, a true merging of lovers means the death of themselves as individuals. Their boundaries become blurred. They care for each other over their own egos, or false sense of selves. They become part of something larger and more natural (hence allusions to the natural -- feather, nuts, foxes, ground). By becoming part of something larger, she gets "the better of the bigger to the letter". Love cares nothing for boundaries, egos, definitions, class, race, orientation, status, age; all these are terms we use to define ourselves and others. To have passion, this is a fuel that drives one to this state of the undefined and the death of the known. |
