I am the speaker but what is responsibility?
This is beg of you, build me brick upon brick.
High tides; waves of hypocrisy.
This is beg of you, build me brick upon brick.
I didn't think the clock struck more than twelve times.
I decided to name her insomnia.
"Her teeth like white seeds in a scarlet fruit"
This I must tell you, old friend
"Her teeth like white seeds in a scarlet fruit"
This I must tell you, old friend
This I must tell you, old friend
Old friend
Old friend
Fear beauty.
Fear beauty.
This is meager, this is feeble.
She was only fiction in my creation
My creation
I think that this is about how even if you are beautiful, you shouldn't believe that will get you ahead in life so much that you don't need intelligence. And that by not needing intelligence, you are wasting your life and not using it to its fullest potential which is not what god wanted. This goes along with their anti-material status along with their Christianity. The Oscar Wilde quote is probably a reference to Eve, a prime example of the song matter.
"her teeth like white seeds in a scarlet fruit" is probably about Eve, and "seeds" almost like planting the seed of knowledge maybeee?
After all, after eve ate the fruit they were given the knowledge of wrong and right.
"fear beauty" could be about how much eve wanted the fruit because she found it to be beautiful but in the end it was horrible for Adam and eve, fear beauty, she should have feared what the fruit could bring her and Adam. just like we should fear things that we find beautiful in todays world.
"dance_timmy_dance" is right. i dont think this song has to do anything with relationships. tdwp is a christiann band and they're lyrics have a "christian meaning".
"This is beg of you, build me brick upon brick.
High tides; waves of hypocrisy"
keep me away from all the hyprocrisy
"I didn't think the clock struck more than twelve times"
you have a limited life time, you can't live forever.
"This I must tell you, old friend: fear beauty"
beauty can sometimes be a hyprocrit.
