Lyrics
Death is everywhere
Death is a pervasive theme or reality.
There are flies on the windscreen
Symbolic flies on the windscreen represent troubles or challenges.
For a start reminding us
Initial reminder of mortality and vulnerability.
We could be torn apart tonight
A sense of imminent danger or separation tonight.
Death is everywhere
Reiteration of the omnipresence of death.
There are lambs for the slaughter
Lambs symbolize vulnerability or innocence.
Waiting to die and I can sense
Awareness of impending death, with time slipping away.
The hours slipping by tonight
The passage of time is felt keenly tonight.
Come here kiss me now
An invitation to intimacy in the face of mortality.
Come here kiss me now
Repetition for emphasis on the urgency of the moment.
Death is everywhere the more I look
Increasing awareness of the omnipresence of death.
The more I see the more I feel
Intensifying emotions and realization of mortality.
A sense of urgency tonight
A heightened sense of urgency tonight.
Come here (touch me) kiss me (touch me)
Invitation to physical touch as a response to mortality.
Now (touch me, touch me)
Repetition emphasizes the immediacy of the physical connection.
Come here (touch me) kiss me (touch me)
Continuation of the urgent plea for physical connection.
Now (touch me, touch me)
Reiteration reinforces the urgency of the moment.
There are flies on the windscreen
Flies on the windscreen as a recurring metaphor for challenges.
There are lambs for the slaughter
Reiteration of lambs as symbols of vulnerability.
There are flies on the windscreen
Repeat of the challenges or troubles represented by flies.
Come here (touch me) kiss me (touch me)
Repetition of the urgent plea for physical closeness.
Now (touch me, touch me)
Repetition intensifies the plea for immediate connection.
Come here (touch me) kiss me (touch me)
Continued urgency in seeking physical closeness.
Now (touch me, touch me)
Repetition underscores the immediate need for connection.
Come here (touch me) kiss me (touch me)
Repetition continues the urgent plea for physical intimacy.
Now (touch me, touch me)
Repetition emphasizes the need for immediate connection.
Come here (touch me) kiss me (touch me)
Continued urgency in seeking physical closeness.
Now (touch me, touch me)
Repetition intensifies the plea for immediate connection.
Come here (touch me) kiss me (touch me)
Continued urgency in seeking physical closeness.
Now (touch me, touch me)
Repetition underscores the immediate need for connection.
Come here (touch me) kiss me (touch me)
Continued urgency in seeking physical closeness.
Now (touch me, touch me)
Repetition intensifies the plea for immediate connection.
Come here kiss me
Final plea for a kiss in the face of mortality.
Now
Emphasis on the immediacy of the desired physical connection.
