Twisted Story
De/Vision Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're hitting hard
Make me forget
Say I'm the worst friend ever
Say it won't happen ever again
You're playing to win now
And I already know what's left to do
To feel sorry for you
Quietly hating
All the things you put me through
A twisted story that cannot unfold
A twisted story too precious to be told
Too precious to be told
A twisted story that will only be
Made up of our own anxiety
Our own anxiety
My head on your silver plate
I'm taken by the enemy
Whatever you come up with
Please try it up on me
I'm silently waiting
To feel sorry for you
Quietly hating
All the things you put me through
A twisted story that cannot unfold
A twisted story too precious to be told
Too precious to be told
A twisted story that will only be
Made up of our own anxiety
Our own anxiety
I'm silently carving
My name into you
Nothing else to do
What have we turned into
A twisted story that cannot unfold
A twisted story too precious to be told
Too precious to be told
A twisted story that will only be
Made up of our own anxiety
Our own anxiety
The lyrics to De/Vision's song "Twisted Story" depict the complicated dynamics of a toxic relationship, where one person is continuously hurting the other but still, the other person remains emotionally invested in the relationship. The first verse portrays the aggressor's behavior, trying to make the other person forget the pain they caused and then asking for forgiveness, only to repeat the hurtful behavior again. The singer of the song is silently waiting to feel sorry for the other person, even though they are quietly hating all the pain they endured.
The chorus's repetition of "A twisted story" indicates that this relationship is complicated and cannot be explained easily. It is too precious to be told, implying that it is not meant for anyone else to know or understand. The singer understands that this twisted story is made up of their own anxiety, and they can't escape the emotional turmoil of the relationship.
The second verse is about the singer's state of mind, highlighting their emotional struggle. They are carving their name into their aggressor, indicating that they feel equally responsible for the twisted story. The song ends on a poignant note, with the singer questioning "what have we turned into," summarizing the emotional distress of the relationship.

this is pure energy, sounds like a savage blast that can touch softly your soul Why 4:34 minutes can take you so far in a strange and real universe? De vision is the result of something far more than sinthpop, but sinthpop is the heart of this sound Thanks a lot MultiCoolTiger

La verdad es que hay canciones de ellos que no tienen nada que envidiar a los Depeche, incluso últimamente les superan...

I agree and I love De/vision.

Still if you know synthpop. Then you can make the difference in comparing synthpop musicians or groups. They all have something different within each other. That's where the seperation is. They all are talented in their own way
