Danse macabre Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Kol 

Cover art for Danse macabre lyrics by Wintersleep

I think it has something to do with conformist... People everywhere are conforming with the MyPod generation.

People that blindly follow a new hallow culture, consisting of shallow icons and ignorence, and he's comparing them to the Dance of the Dead. Just like cerpin_taxt said, the dance of the dead is a mythic event where the dead dance in ritual.

"Was I sleeping all this time, was my shadow ever mine?" = Conformism. No face, no shadow.

Anyone?


I'm disappointed in how many people will just write something aloing the lines of "I love this song" or "Such a great song, one of my favorites!" I want to hear what you think of the lyrics, not if you like the song or not.

Example:

"one of my favourite wintersleep songs for sure. all their songs mean something different to me. they are soooooo amazing live" -tequila_

We know they're awesome live, and your posting in the Wintersleep forum, so we know you like the band... You say each song means something different to you... So? What do they mean?

I'm not trying to be an jerk, but seriously.

THANK_YOU KOL! LOL Couldn't have said it better myself. I agree with all you've stated.

So "danse" is French for dance.

I would also agree with dancingleaves' interpretation. great!
