Mein Blut Lyrics
Eiskaltes Licht
Kalter Glanz
Eisgesicht
Kalte Lust
Kalte Seele
Gottes Hand
an der kehle
Hut ab zum Gebet
Das Gesicht in den Staub
so tief es nur geht
für dich
mein Herz
für dich
auf weißer Haut
Kalte Frau
ausgesaugt
Kaltes Kreuz
Mach mich gesund
Kalter Wein
aus deinem Mund
der hinweg nimmt
die Sünden der Welt
Dies ist mein Blut
das dich für alle Zeit
von der Unschuld befreit
Cold heart Ice-cold light Cold sparkle Ice-face Cold desire Cold soul God's hand on your throat
On your knees Hat off for prayer Face in the dust as deep as you can
I spill my blood for you my heart for you
Hot dew on white skin Cold woman sucked dry Cold cross Make me healthy Cold wine from your mouth
This is my body that takes away the sins of the world This is my blood that frees you for all time from innocence
this song is awesome. very easy to understand too. yey.
I was just wondering, does anybody know what the musical element before they sing is called? Sounds like a monk chanting, I suppose.
I love this song =)
They're using Gregorian chant throughout the song... very unique and it makes the song that much more appealing.
The song might be talking about a woman who loves God blindly, or she loves God more than her lover, who would give his life for her... maybe she's some kind of religious fanatic.
The choice of which chant to use might be meaningful. They chose the Kyrie which is in Greek and is part of the Catholic mass but generally sung or said in English now.
The chant is "Kýrie eléison; Christé eléison; Kýrie eléison."
In English it means: Lord, have mercy; Christ, have mercy; Lord, have mercy.
The chanting is from "missa lux et origo - kyrie" and sounds very similar to the "The Benedictine Monks Of Santo Domingo De Silos"
