Lyric discussion by TheTekestan 

Elephantine idiot! How could I have been — why do I continue to be — so stupid! "Mare", Latin, meaning "sea" or "ocean". From which, or relatives thereof, come the English words "marine" and "marina". Furthermore, the Russian for "sea" is also море (morye). Anyway, what does it matter? Most of her songs, with the exception perhaps of "Machine", don't have clear, definite meaning anyway, even to her! She confessed as much in that interview with . . . whatever the name of that magazine is; I can't remember.
