| Nightwish – Escapist Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| For me as Jarli says, it's just a song where Tuomas says that he wants to escape of this world and live in a fantasy, "This is who i am, escapist, paradise seeker. Farewell! time to fly, out of sight, out of time, away from our lives!" that verse explains the whole song. | |
| Nightwish – Amaranth Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Ok, mmm This is what i think about Amaranth, being one of my favorte songs ever...when you find a meaning it just get more beautiful. Look: Baptized with a perfect name The doubting One By heart Alone without himself This stanza talks about Tuomas. This song has a lot of biblical and religious touches, and "Thomas" is the doubting disciple of Jesus. Then, he's referring ti himself, as "the doubting one by heart", And "Alone without himself" it's just because Tuomas constantly feels alone, and "without himself", pretty reminds me to the story on TPATP. War Between him and the day Need someone to blame In the Little he can do alone I think he talks about a war that he feels he have with this world. "Need someone to blame" could be something related to what happened recently in his life. "In the end little he can do alone" simply as it says. You Believe But What You See You Receive But What You Give Well, this is a well known pseudo psychological thought...maybe referring that you can only harvest what you've planted. You planted hate, you can only receive hate or another feeling. Caress The One The Never-Fading Rain In Your Heart The Tears Of Snow White Sorrow For me this can be like "Caress the pure pain in your heart, all the sorrow, like something dear 'till it goes to sleep forever" Caress the one, the hiding Amaranth in the land of the Daybreak Then, Caress the love, the immortality, the happiness, even more dearly than the pain, in a new whole world. Apart From the wandering Pack In This Brief Flight Of Time We Reach For The Ones Who Ever Dare Apart from the world, he (or they, like wanderers) reach for those who want to live again, to dare to dream even when everything looks gray. Reaching, Searching, for something untouched hearing voices of the never-fading calling reaching for the immortality, maybe for the happiness, something untouched maybe for him or for everyone. Hearing the voices of the hope, that forever stays in the heart of the people who dare to dream. This is my personal interpretation ^_^ |
