The Magnetism of Pure Gold
Mint Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The flies are all dead, the spiders screwed
Your lightbulbeyes crack, like ice in spring
When you launch your attack
With zealous sting
The magnetism of pure gold
The magnetism of pure gold
The magnetism of pure gold
Lumps of black coal feed the fire
I m captain of this sinking ship
But I will get my load round the iceberg s tip
The magnetism of pure gold
The magnetism of pure gold
The magnetism of pure gold
Is what we re all after
We keep on trying to find the longitude
Despite rash and scurvy
Despite heads unscrewed
The magnetism of pure gold
The magnetism of pure gold
The magnetism of pure gold
Is what we re all after
In the song "The Magnetism of Pure Gold" by Mint, the lyrics describe a feeling of chaos and desperation as everything seems to fall apart. The first line, "The building blocks have come unglued," suggests that the foundation of something important has crumbled, leading to a chain reaction of negative events. The mention of dead flies and screwed spiders adds to this sense of decay and destruction, while the line "Your lightbulb eyes crack, like ice in spring" could be interpreted as a metaphor for a breakdown or loss of clarity.
Despite this chaos, there is a sense of determination in the lyrics. The singer declares themselves the "captain of this sinking ship" and vows to make it through the difficult times. The repetition of the phrase "the magnetism of pure gold" throughout the song serves as a reminder of what is truly valuable and worth striving for, even in the midst of turmoil. This idea is reinforced by the final lines, in which the singer talks about searching for something despite uncertainty and hardship.
Overall, "The Magnetism of Pure Gold" is a complex song that blends moments of despair with a sense of resilience and determination. It explores themes of decay, loss, and the pursuit of something greater.
