Sing for Absolution
Muse Lyrics
Lips are turning blue
A kiss that can't renew
I only dream of you
My beautiful
Tiptoe to your room
A starlight in the gloom
I only dream of you
And you never knew
I will be singing
Falling from your grace
There's nowhere left to hide
In no one to confide
The truth runs deep inside
And will never die
Lips are turning blue
A kiss that can't renew
I only dream of you
My beautiful
Sing for absolution
I will be singing
Falling from your grace
Sing for absolution
I will be singing
Falling from your grace
Our wrongs remain unrectified
And our souls won't be exhumed

The first time I listened carefully to the lyrics, I felt something like
a deja-vu. Some time passed and, as I was preparing for a romanian
literature exam, I came upon an old poem written by Mihai Eminescu:
Evening Star (you can find it's english translation on the web, I
recommend the one made by Petre Grimm). And then it clicked. It is a
poem that I read as a child, without understanding the subtle symbolism.
The Evening Star falls from the sky and tip-toes in the room of the
loved one, but the woman, even if she asked for him in her dreams, is
afraid of him because he looks either like a dead angel or a fiery
demon. As she falls in love with another earthling, The Evening Star
realises that he can't fall from his grace for a fickle human. At some
point she remembers him, chants for him again, but The Evening Star's
absolution doesn't fall upon her again...

This song has one of the best breakdowns in all Muse history in my opinion. Especially when you can hear the long guitar notes overlaid with their harmonic series and the chromatic shift at the end
Chris
To my ears, I do hear notes that resemble the harmonic series, but even the breakdown is still within a diatonic framework, even though he sings notes in further registers

@Gus Ralston ...cool.
Gus Ralston
@TxX AssassiNz basically they're saying a chromatic shift is when you shift to a chord/scale/mode that uses notes outside of the original key of the song

@Tobias Wolf Can I have that in layman's terms please? Not everyone is a musical prodigy, clearly.
