Do You Believe in Love
Ultra-Sonic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stand behind his light of love
Hear him yell his bloody tongue
Hear him yell of blood and war
Do you believe in his sweet sensation?
Do you believe in second chance?
Do you believe in rapture, babe?
A terrible hit strikes today
A terrible hit for the parade
Burning eyes see Jesus coming
Jesus comes to pave the way
Do you believe in his sweet sensation?
Do you believe in second chance?
Do you believe in rapture, babe?
Can you tell me what to feel?
Open up your tender soul
Can I drink your drunken mercy?
Wine burns the devil's home
Do you believe in his sweet sensation?
Do you believe in second chance?
Do you believe in rapture, babe?
In Ultra-Sonic's song "Do You Believe In Love," the lyrics depict a tumultuous and chaotic world where the singer questions the existence of love and seeks guidance. The first verse portrays a scene where the singer is standing behind someone who is inebriated, possibly representing the intoxicating nature of love. The mention of a "light of love" may suggest that the individual is radiant with love, but their words are filled with violence and aggression ("bloody tongue" and "blood and war").
The chorus repeatedly asks the listener if they believe in the "sweet sensation" and a "second chance." This could be an inquiry into whether they believe in the possibility of experiencing love again or finding redemption and forgiveness. The mention of "rapture" adds a spiritual aspect, possibly alluding to the belief in an intense and transformative experience of love.
The second verse introduces a "terrible hit" that disrupts a celebratory parade, symbolizing the harsh realities and unexpected challenges that love can bring. The arrival of Jesus is mentioned, which could symbolize hope or the divine intervention needed to navigate through difficult times.
The third and final verse expresses a desire for guidance and understanding. The singer seeks someone who can help them decipher their emotions and experiences. They ask if the listener can "tell [them] what to feel" and if they can open up their soul, suggesting vulnerability and the need for emotional connection. The mention of the devil's home being burned by wine implies a desire to rid oneself of destructive impulses and find solace in love.
