| Poets Of The Fall – Lift Lyrics | 6 years ago |

In my Interpretation, this song is about a lover who loves someone, although he isn't allowed to in legal ways. Let's say he is homosexual and lives in Saudi Arabia. Or loves someone else he isn't allowed to. So he always is afraid of disappearing (getting picked up by legal forces and get locked or killed), or of his lover to not coming back. (same thing). But he keeps on loving. Cause the other person makes him fly! |

| Poets Of The Fall – The Ballad of Jeremiah Peacekeeper Lyrics | 6 years ago |
|
In my Interpretation Jeremiah Peacekeeper is an Avatar of time. Neither the Avatar of the past, nor the Avatar or the future. He is the Avatar of the Presence! To understand this, you have to notice, that all of the negative feelings you get in the presence is caused by clinging your thoughts either to the past (negative events,pain) or to the future (worrying, suffering). If you keep you thoughts in the presence, you will neither fear nor suffer. Jeremiah can only protect you, by using the presence. And he can only use it, if you love him, or in other words spend your time in the presence when, the darkness(negative emotions) come. Lines supporting my interpretation: 1. "He sees an eternity in blink of an eye" 2. "..The here and now will bow to him to only serve one purpose. To keep your peace". 3. "...and your wounds will be his scars. So won’t you remember when the night comes He will need your open arms . For to be invincible he needs your love." 4. "And yet tomorrow comes along And shifts to serve his purpose To keep your peace." The other lines support that too. The present is the most quiet time. The thoughts always wonder to future or past. As if they were screaming you to think of them. The presence doesn't do this. So he's portrait as quiet guy. Looking out of windows. Standing quiet in doors. Without "gun" to solve your problems. "Outside the desert wails a curse of rage and jealousy." Outside the desert, where no human being lives, is a lot of anger (based on past) or jealousy(based on future) I hope this makes sense to you and if you have other interpretations. Tell me! |
