| Björk – Play Dead Lyrics | 1 year ago |
|
To me this song is about being in an emotional pain or depression where death seems like a relief, an escape. Imagining it, playing things out in your mind gives a sense of closure and that stops the hurting. I'm talking from personal experience 25 years ago. When I heard this song back then, I was really surprised how perfectly it described what I was going through and actually doing, lying on the floor of my flat imagining I'm dead. That dark period is long gone but I don't often listen to this song. It's beautiful, but very dark, at least to me. |
