Suspirium Lyrics
This is a waltz thinking about our bodies
What they mean for our salvation
Only the clothes that we stand up in
Just the ground on which we stand
Is the darkness ours to take?
Bathed in lightness, bathed in heat
All is well, as long as we keep spinning
Here and now, dancing behind the wall
Hear the old songs and laughter within
All forgiven, always and never be true
When I arrive, will you come and find me
In a crowd, be one of them
Mother wants us, right beside her
No tomorrows
At peace
What they mean for our salvation
Only the clothes that we stand up in
Just the ground on which we stand
Is the darkness ours to take?
Bathed in lightness, bathed in heat
Here and now, dancing behind the wall
Hear the old songs and laughter within
All forgiven, always and never be true
In a crowd, be one of them
Mother wants us, right beside her
No tomorrows
At peace

beautiful song how can he keep writing such gems
i think this song is a contemplation of death and about meeting his wife on the otherside.
a-religious, a-spiritual, and yet this is part of a movement of freedom. This song is among Yorke's most intimate because he exposes the truth that the vessel of our body is simply part of a larger freedom. Freedom among the most ordinary sense of life "the clothes that we stand up in"....... Of course this is about light, spinning and dancing. What we share with particle physics. "Is the darkness ours to take" an extrordinary line....always multiple meanings with TY. He has always sung from darkness, and yet he doubts whether the darkness is actually dark. Also light. "Always and never been true" Gorgeous paradox wildly cosmos driven and likely also about his wife.... we don't know the personal and it doesnt matter..... have people seen that TY has become bit hopeful?
