High life
MANDE MANDELA
(V. Tapia - J. M. Márquez)
La noche que anda de negro
Cargada de soledad
Que se levante Mandela
Mandela, mande ya
La noche que anda escondida
Y sigue siempre esperando
Debe ser el mediodÃa
O la mañana cantando
Mande Mandela , Mandela ya
Que la noche se levante
Y no se vuelva a acostar(bis)
La noche puede ser blanca
O puede tener colores
Que se levante Mandela
Con su odio y sus amores
La noche que está dormida
Rodeada por las estrellas
Que se levante Mandela
Que se levante con ellas
Mande Mandela, Mandela ya...
Hey, hey ya
Hey, hey Mandela ya (bis)
Mayibuye Mandela mande ya
Mayibuye Mandela mande ya
Mayibuye Mandela mande ya
Mayibuye Mandela mande ya
Hey Mandela ya
Mandela ya
Mayibuye Mandela mayibuye
Mayibuye Mandela, Mandela ya(bis)

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
