Before We Drown Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Zeitghost 

Cover art for Before We Drown lyrics by Depeche Mode

For me its about dialectic evolution developed by Hegel. You take part in one extreme of the dialect and where cought up in the fight by your antithesis and washed over by the synthesis.... the zeitgeist that left you behind to die. You die in the currents of dialectic evolution. Its frightening and beautiful. Giving your essence to the greater development is finished. Its a reason to cry for yourself and to celebrate your archivement as a Step in develepmont of all Humanity. Bob Dylan style added with beauty

[Edit: Bob Dylan for me did never see the beauty in demise]
