About A Plane Crash Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
burning beauty
kill the lights or you shall die
kill the lights or you shall fall
kill the lights or you shall die
kill the lights
we operate
burn beauty youll keep falling
The lyrics to About A Plane Crash's song We Operate The Deceased are haunting and filled with ambiguity. The opening line, "You're soul burning burning beauty" suggests a sense of inner turmoil and struggle. The repetition of "kill the lights or you shall die" and "kill the lights or you shall fall" may be interpreted metaphorically, as a call to leave behind negative thoughts and self-destructive behaviors.
The line "we operate" suggests a position of power and control, perhaps over oneself or over someone else. The phrase "burn beauty you'll keep falling" creates a juxtaposition of beauty and destruction, suggesting that one's beauty or external appearance may be a contributing factor to their struggle. Finally, the line "I'm directing your life baby" implies a relationship dynamic where one person holds control and influence over the other.
Overall, the lyrics paint a picture of internal struggle and power dynamics in personal relationships.

It's so weird to see this so popular. I used to know Shaun (far right) from his previous band Brake Through, they split and he formed this band with a few mates which he introduced me to. I lost complete touch of him and AAPC about a year after that. I thought I'd give it a quick YouTube search and my God, apparently they actually did pretty well haha!
