Love Supreme Lyrics

Ground
Ground and deep in sky
I′m growing old through back the line
Love me or I let you

Child
Do you remember, child?
There's something through the green
There′s something through your bleeding
You
You

Destroy me again
Is there still something I need to learn?
Destroy me again
Ultil I feel I know

When
When your last face will say your name
Destroy me again
Until there's no you
And me

Overall Meaning

The beauty of Love Supreme's song "Beauty" lies in its cryptic lyrics that have multiple interpretations. The verses "Ground and deep in sky, I'm growing old through back the line, love me or I let you" can be interpreted as the struggle of an individual who wants to be loved but is hesitant to show vulnerability. The phrase "growing old through back the line" can be taken to mean the passage of time and the aging process. The next stanza "Do you remember, child? There's something through the green, there's something through your bleeding, you, you" implies a sense of nostalgia and a call to remember something from the past. It can also suggest the pain that someone has gone through and how it has changed them.


The subsequent lines "Destroy me again, is there still something I need to learn? Destroy me again until I feel I know" can be seen as a desperate plea to experience pain and destruction as a means of gaining knowledge and understanding. The artist is willingly and even eagerly surrendering to suffering in order to attain a higher level of consciousness or perspective.


Finally, the song ends with the chorus, "When your last face will say your name, destroy me again until there's no you and me, beauty, beauty, beauty". This could be interpreted as a yearning for a legacy, a desire for one's name to be remembered beyond their time, but also an acceptance of the inevitability of death and the dissolution of the self. The repetition of the word "beauty" is interesting as it suggests that despite all the pain and suffering, there is beauty in life, and perhaps even in death.

My favorite after lonely feelings. Thanks to Black Mirror for bringing me here....

@koifish8416

I might be very wrong but this song sounds like a person fighting with their inner child in their mind. Their inner child is the part of them that’s hopeful and trust the world but it only hurts them over and over again “Destroy me again”, until it’s gone forever “Until there is no me in you.” And this person has lost hope for this world completely and their outer shell is so strong that no part of them can even open up.

@djojo4134

Your music is so cinematic that I am glad Lonely Feelings was used in the Black Mirror trailer. Not like anything I have heard before. Thank you for giving me the experience of listening to this beautiful music!

@captainyoutube8914

I can feel Hurt of Johnny Cash on this, but a hundred of years in future...

@donutszumkaffee

Thats what I'm saying!

@eremasicama3193

Thats actually the first song that came to mind when i heard this for the first time.

@empireoflightz

This is what divinity sounds like

@CThisted

I simply love this song. All the emotions of loneliness bottled up and released. Yet the song instilled the sense of intimacy.

Seems right other than the fact that he definitely does not say EGO he says YOU
