I don't know how to quite interprete this song;...at least for me I see the song's meaning like this: Tori is watching two persons who are attracted to each other who but don't dare to recognize it, and doubt if the other one really sees beyond the surface (-->"is he real or a ghost lie
she feels she isn't heard
and the veil tears and rages
till her voices are remembered
and his secrets can be told")...But Tori tells him that he can "dare" because he doesn't have to fear that he dares in vain, he just has to be patient until she thinks she can dare,too,... because she has got the same yearnings for him, but she needs time to lose the fear: "you know you'll drink her
rolling and unrolling
coiling emerging running free
running through the afterworld
into your room so she prays
for a prankster and lust
in the marriage bed
and he waits till she can give
and he waits and he
waits" ...hm, however, still strange lyrics, maybe I interprete wrong at all. But, the piano and her way of singing it....shivering and mesmerizing.
Interesting interpretation, but I'm more impressed with the date of your post...2002. I hadn't realized this site has existed nine years (or more). I thought in was rather new.
