Like the previous album, Primary Fear was released in Japan by Avalon/Marquee with the addition of some bonus tracks. In 2006 the new release of Arachnes, 5th studio-album, IN PRAISE OF SCIENCE, already described by Caruso brothers as another big step forward in order to combine hard rock and progressive edges with symphonic atmospheres.
Loveless
Arachnes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
in a dull and normal day,
I was saying to myself:
God, I need you!
Somebody to love,
and something to preserve,
I can afford it, my God!
I'm walking about the town,
All is mighty,
all is so wonderful.
And yet, it's incredible,
this is not the world, life:
they're all pretexts,
because life is in the sky.
(Pre.)
Without a number, a word,
just loving the light and the sun...
STARS AND PLANETS, OVER ALL THE WILL,
THEY MOVE IN THE UNIVERSE.
BUT WE'RE HERE WITH OUR STUPID MONEY,
WE ARE FAT,
WE'RE ALONE,
WITHOUT LOVE.
Desperately,
I'm walking on the road,
all is mighty,
all is so wonderful.
And yet, it's incredible,
this is not the world, life:
they're all pretexts,
because life is in the sky.
The lyrics of Arachnes' song "Loveless" touch on themes of existentialism and dissatisfaction with contemporary society. The singer opens their eyes to a mundane day and immediately feels a deep need for something more. They long for love and purpose, something to hold onto in an otherwise insignificant world. As they walk through the city and observe its towering buildings and impressive infrastructure, they feel awed by its grandeur yet simultaneously disconnected from it. The singer recognizes that material wealth and status are not fulfilling, and that life's true essence lies beyond the concrete jungle around them.
Line by Line Meaning
Opening my eyes,
I woke up to start a new day.
in a dull and normal day,
It seemed just like any other day.
I was saying to myself:
I thought to myself.
God, I need you!
I need something greater than myself to believe in.
Somebody to love,
I want someone to share my life with.
and something to preserve,
I want to have something to cherish and protect.
I can afford it, my God!
I have the resources to attain what I desire.
I'm walking about the town,
I'm exploring the city.
I'm walking in the middle of the steel.
I'm amidst the buildings and structures of the urban landscape.
All is mighty,
The cityscape is impressive and powerful.
all is so wonderful.
I appreciate the magnificence of my surroundings.
And yet, it's incredible,
However, I'm amazed by something else beyond this.
this is not the world, life:
The material world isn't all there is to existence.
they're all pretexts,
The things we focus on are just excuses.
because life is in the sky.
The true essence of life exists in the heavens.
(Pre.)
In the pre-chorus, I reflect on something more valuable than worldly possessions.
Without a number, a word,
Without needing to count or measure anything,
just loving the light and the sun...
I find joy in the natural beauty of the sun and the stars.
STARS AND PLANETS, OVER ALL THE WILL,
Celestial bodies move and govern based on their natural order.
THEY MOVE IN THE UNIVERSE.
These celestial bodies traverse the cosmos.
BUT WE'RE HERE WITH OUR STUPID MONEY,
However, we focus too much on our material wealth.
WE ARE FAT,
We have an excess of earthly possessions.
WE'RE ALONE,
Despite our wealth, we lack meaningful connections with other people.
WITHOUT LOVE.
We are missing the most important aspect of our lives.
Desperately,
I am filled with desperation,
I'm walking on the road,
I continue to journey through life,
all is mighty,
The city and its grandeur continues to astound me,
all is so wonderful.
But I know that there is more to life than these physical wonders.
And yet, it's incredible,
Still, I can't help but be amazed,
this is not the world, life:
That there's more to existence than the material world around us,
they're all pretexts,
And we often use that material world as an excuse for our lack of fulfillment.
because life is in the sky.
I know that true fulfillment in life can only come from above.
