It was the dream of Kris (lead singer & piano player) to have a band. Together with his brothers Lex (guitar player) and Dario (bass player) and their best friend Alex (drums) he started up this band.

At the beginning of their carreer they played several cover songs of other bands but soon they began to write their own songs and look for a label. After 34 concerts in Italy, Austria, Switzerland and Ex-Yugoslavia they recorded their first demo tape “After The End”. This demo tape included 10 songs but was never released – it was only used for reaching some fans in Europe. Probably they couldn’t imagine what an effect this tape would have. The press and many people soon began to put their eyes on the band: many reviews and interviews made ViT to one of the most amazing Italian Gothic Acts. This enormous attention helped them to get a deal with the label “Aural Music”. At this time they released “Seed of an Ancient Pain”, which is said to be the best Gothic Indie release of 2007. Thanks to their MySpace profile and a great promotion they quickly reached lots of new fans.

In 2010 they release their second album "Underskin", followed by "Welcome To Vladyland" in 2011.

Mary
Vlad In Tears Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's like an angel in my dreams,
She's like a dancer on my lips... at now... killing to feel fine
She's like fever on my mind,
She's like demon on my side,
She brings me to feel fine
She kills me to feel fine as darkness in my life.

My Mary oh Mary I'm feeling what you felling

My Mary oh Mary I'm feeling what you felling
My Mary sweet Mary
I'm losing my mind in you... you are the worst and the best of my life...

She's like a razor in my eyes,
She's like a razor on my side... at now... screaming to feel fine,
She's like a stranger on my town, driving me crazy, digging me down
She brings me to feel fine,
She kills me to fee fine as darkness in my life...

My Mary oh Mary I'm feeling what you felling
My Mary oh Mary I'm feeling what you felling
My Mary sweet Mary

I'm losing my mind in you... you are the worst and the best of my life...

My Mary oh Mary I'm feeling what you felling

My Mary oh Mary I'm feeling what you felling
My Mary sweet Mary

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Vlad In Tears' song "Mary" seem to depict a tumultuous and intense relationship with a woman named Mary. The singer compares Mary to various things - an angel, a dancer, a fever, a demon, a razor, and a stranger - all of which seem to convey an element of danger or excitement. The repeated phrase "She kills me to feel fine" suggests that the singer is drawn to Mary's dangerous allure despite the pain it causes him. The phrases "I'm losing my mind in you" and "you are the worst and the best of my life" further emphasize the intense and conflicting emotions that the singer feels towards Mary.

The song's overall tone is one of dark and raw intensity which matches the theme of the lyrics. The use of repetitive phrases and comparisons creates a sense of manic obsession and the driving beat of the music adds to the feeling of passionate desperation.
