Illusive Consensus Lyrics
You entered my soul and gave hope to my life.
You left me behind all alone and aghast
Capured inside such an austere Elysium
Love a device against all solitude
As it all went on, the love became
A field in a dream that once had been real
Destroy this illusion we need a change of fate!
Your frantic thoughts are only a condemned cry
deinde veritas se praecipitavit
which had never existed
but then it smashed into reality
Beautiful on the outside, decayed deeply within
which had never existed
Mark himself stated on the 'We will take you with us'-DVD that the song is about false love and how love can turn into hatred.
I really recognize the situation as described in the song from events in my own life. Love blinds us and makes the person you love beautiful and flawless.
But when you realise that the person that you love is playing a character and it is this character you fell in love with and not this person, this love can turn into hate. The one you loved never existed.. This person betrayed you, played with you.. and now you've come to sense, you're realising this.
The latin parts Twam translated fit in perfectly with this. Don't you think?
Does anyone have the exact translations of the Latin parts?
I translated them for myself and came up with:
Primo somniare videbamur deinde veritas se praecipitavit
First we saw dreams, then the truth forced itself on to us
and: Numquam non tibi diffidam
Never did I not doubt you
I think it's a great song, but I just wondered what those parts meant :)
