Cover art for The Most Unfortunate Lie lyrics by Swans

I think you're right Cynothoglys... It's about lying to get somewhere higher in life, power, greed and money, recurring themes in Swans' oeuvre... I think Gira is a great poet and singer, and that the Swans wrote some of the most beautiful songs ever... There's a lot of symbolism in the songs from "White mouth..." ad this songs shows it.
