Distemper Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
но почему-то глаза их горели,
я видел ангелов очень красивых,
бледных и мёртвых внутри.
Противоречий немало в природе,
люди, как свечи, на старом комоде,
злобу глотают, легко разгораясь,
медленно тают, всю жизнь озираясь.
хватит попадать под подозрения,
хватит убивать мировоззрение,
хватит раздувать своё горение.
Я умираю, я умираю для тебя Есть проповедники чистые сердцем,
но в нашем мире они просто слепы,
есть подлецы, что легко правят миром,
не открывая глаза.
Мало кричать всем, что мир исчезает,
рушатся горы, земля замерзает,
люди проблемы легко замечают,
если у них на глазах умирают.
Ничего не жди, — и будет нечего терять,
плачутся дожди, но им не стоит доверять.
В страхе от чумы не сдохнут те, кто и не жили,
наконец-то мы получим всё, что заслужили.
Я умираю, я умираю для тебя Всепоглащающая страсть —
собою жертвовать без меры,
хоть одному не дать упасть,
заставить жить своим примером.
Я умираю, я умираю для тебя
The lyrics to Distemper's "I Am Dying for You" explore the contradictions and complexities of human nature. The opening lines describe the singer's encounters with impoverished and dirty individuals, whose eyes, despite their hardship, burn with a fierce intensity. The singer also describes seeing beautiful yet pale and dead angels. The song suggests that there are many contradictions in nature, with people being like candles on an old commode that can easily ignite with anger and slowly fade away over time. The song suggests that people need to stop losing sight of what is important and stop succumbing to suspicion and anger.
The song moves on to talk about the role of preachers and the corrupt individuals who manipulate the world around them. The song highlights that despite the best efforts of some, the world around us is crumbling, and people are quick to notice problems if they arise in front of them. The song suggests that instead of waiting for change, it is important to take action, and that sometimes sacrifice is necessary to achieve a better outcome. The final lines of the song describe the all-consuming passion that drives the singer to give themselves over completely to a cause, with the intention of inspiring others to do the same.
Overall, "I Am Dying for You" is a powerful and introspective reflection on the contradictions and complexities of human nature, and the importance of taking action to affect change. The song suggests that it is crucial to stay true to one's values, despite the many trials and tribulations that we may face, if we are to achieve a better future.
