Creepy Green Light

Obviously, an intro with a praise for her dead bride. Why a green light? On the celtic past, the survivors from battles who die for seconds, talked about follow a green light to get back to life, then to die...a whit light.

All I know is that this song is about the green light. (their symbol). So it could be about one of his loved ones dying and death must be the creepy green light.

damn, I can't believe no one wrote anything about this song ... this song is amazing like Love You To Death ... not much to say about this song but it can put you into an ethereal mood while drinking whiskey & Coke! =D

It's another that I find strangely uplifting...'World Coming Down' is my favourite of their albums.

this song is awesome and it truely gets me like, majorly.

Anyone understand the lyrics?

This song is clearly about the return of the dead.

"This halloween So unlike any other"

Halloween is thought to be a time when the veil between the world of the living and the world of the dead is thinnest, allowing spirits to enter this world. This halloween is the first one after the death of his love. Or it is the first one after he learned that death isn't the end.

"Her final words Don't be afraid Of the green light Of the green light Green light"

His love's final words, as she lay dying seeing what he could not, that she would be allowed to return. The green light is a creepier version of what she was seeing as she went "to the light" When she returns, the light, instead of being holy and pure white, is a more sinister green.

"On muddy ground I'm lying drunk on her grave Where i must wait Until she wakes"

On halloween, Peter's torched and nearly unconcious on her grave. Its been raining. he waits.

"The soil splits Greenwood's ground will quake beneath me And so shall take into the earth To the green light To the green light"

The beginning of his love's return. Her grave splits open and the earth begins to shake. We also see a foreshadowing of what the true "return" is all about. The earth itself (or more correctly Peter's world) is being drawn into the light.

"The autumn air Thickly fills my lungs so sweetly Reminds me of her smoky breath With wine and this bouquet of maple and oak leaves In death or life we'll always be"

The autumn air, is thick with the smells of autumn (in most places), decaying leaves, smoke, and moisture. This reminds him further of her. The wine itself tastes like autumn. (Some wines in fact to have a very "oakey" taste. ) Pete affirms that he wants to be with her forever.

"I find myself drawn to her shadow domain I find myself drawn to her shadow domain I find myself drawn to her shadow domain"

Pete is finding himself wanting to leave this life to be with her.

"This moonlit night Late october's swirling fog gloom And as promised my love did rise From the green light From the green light Green light

I find myself drawn to her shadow domain I find myself drawn to her shadow domain I find myself drawn to her shadow domain"

His dead love arose from her grave, to take Pete back to the world of the dead with her. This is probably Pete's last sight as he lay dying in the cemetary, either poisoned by the amount of alcohol he's had or dead by his own hand directly.

This song was utilised in Vampire Bloodlines(videogame from troika), for me seem a human waiting a gangrel Domitor(his bride?) arise from earth. Try take a look on world of darkness background.Autumn is perfect to describe vampiric condition of undead,and fist edition of Masquerade used to be green marble cover. So, under a creepy green light. But is only my theory.
