Dance
Artrosis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This ruthless dance keeps going on and on
Ballet of hearts
But only this make sense
It feels like dying when you go away
The moment you return
I feel I live again

In the mirror of my deepest derams
I see your face reflected
I see my true desires
In your hands I lay my soul
Which tenderly caressing
Are sowing seeds of wrath
Seeds of wrath...

I fall asleep silenty so deep in your arms
To the rhythm of the waltz you caress me
And we dance
Dancing is divinty that you seek
It's redemption




Following your destiny till the end of existence
My deepest dreams...

Overall Meaning

The song "Dance" by Artrosis speaks to the complexities of a relationship that involves both love and pain. The lyrics describe this relationship as a "ruthless dance" that keeps going on and on, a "ballet of hearts." Despite the difficulties of this dance, the singer asserts that it is the only thing that makes sense. The song takes on a melancholic tone as the lyrics describe the feeling of dying when the other person is away, and the relief that comes with their return.


The second verse of the song takes on a more introspective tone, as the singer reflects on their deepest dreams and desires. They see the face of their lover reflected in the mirror, and place their soul in their hands. The metaphor of sowing "seeds of wrath" suggests that there is a dark side to this relationship, that perhaps these two people are not always good for each other. However, the song ends on a note of redemptive hope, as the singer falls asleep in the arms of their lover, "dancing to the rhythm of the waltz" and seeking "divinity."


Overall, "Dance" is a beautiful and haunting exploration of the tension between love and pain, and the deep human need for connection, even when that connection is fraught with difficulty.
