| Depeche Mode – Alone Lyrics

To me this sounds like a toxic one sides relationship. Especially with how evocative the music is, I think the narrator loved someone with everything and tried to be everything the one he loved wanted but couldn't "I couldn't even take you home" "I couldn't play that role" it sounds like he knows he did everything right within the relationship "I was your father, son, Holy Ghost and priest" but just wasn't enough for this person, "I didn't see much happiness or pain" nothing he could do could get the reaction he wanted. Being loving him in the same way he loved her. Now this could be complete projection on my part. |

A different view of this song. And probably far off and half baked but I see this as two sides to the narrator. The sinner and the self. Like for everyone on the planet they have their bad side and that bad side drives you to make stupid decision or act in aggression etc etc, the self is always there to pick the sinner up and the sinner is always there to act on behalf of the self, when a bad break up happens or something along those lines. and the cycle goes on. I don't think this is about any form of drugs or addiction. With depeche mode the music tells a good amount of the story and the music doesn't have the same vibe as those about drugs. |

| Depeche Mode – Where's the Revolution Lyrics

i think this song is effectively saying where is this far left revolution weve been hearing so much about and that everyone else has needed one for 20 years... but depeche mode did something like this in personal jesus, i could be completely wrong, as music is based on interpretation. i take from this song that both sides of this long running debate have their scruples. but in the end the far left will have to put down their flags, as the normal people, being lead by martin in the video (plus hes the writer) dont want a marxist utopian world, but in effect the song is saying everyone that isnt far left needs to revolt, get the far left out of the media and education (lied to, fed truth's blah blah), and the people need more government control as democracy seems to be failing us at the moment. as i say, this is my interpretation, dont take this as the actual meaning..... im probably wrong. THIS IS DEPECHE MODE.
i am clearly a patriotic junkie :D as for religion.... and terror, the only people i see using terror is the far left (and islam is far left) so... yeah i could sit down with the song on loop and do a break down of the video but i have a life :) plus id probably be WRONG (tune) |
