Curtain of Lies
The Rocketz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The smell of your hair
The look in your eyes
And I could never let you go
As you dance upon my soul
I wouldnt even try...
Hold me Closely
How lust of love is just this in disguise*
And I know you love me
So I cant speak just another lie
I see the lust there in your eyes
And I can see through your disguise
When you′r dancing close to me
I see the smile when you lie
It's the love you′r trying to hide
When your dancing on your knees
Hold me Closely
Show me only
How lust of love is just this in disguise*
And I know you love me
So I cant speak just another lie
Dance for me
Come and set me free
I fell in love behind a curtain of lies
Dance for me
Come and set me free
Lusting love
I fell in love behind a curtain of lies
Dance for me
Come and set me free
I fell in love behind a curtain of lies
Dance for me
Come and set me free
I fell in love behind a curtain of lies
The Rocketz's song Curtain of Lies tells the story of a relationship that is based on deception and hidden intentions. The singer is aware that their partner is not being truthful, but they are captivated by the physical and emotional connection that they share. The lyrics describe the attraction and desire that the singer feels for their partner, even though they know that it is not built on a solid foundation of honesty.
The line "dance for me, come and set me free" suggests that the physical connection between the two is what provides freedom and release from their respective problems. The metaphor of a "curtain of lies" implies that the deception between the two is all-encompassing - it is a barrier that neither can break through. The singer acknowledges that they have fallen in love with their partner, despite the fact that they are both hiding behind a façade of dishonesty.
Overall, the song is about the complications of love and desire. It suggests that sometimes, people fall in love with the idea of a person, rather than who they truly are. The singer is aware that their relationship is built on a lie, but they are unable to let go of their partner, because they enjoy the emotional and physical connection. The song is bittersweet and melancholy, with a sense of longing and desire mixed with sadness and awareness of the truth.
