The Shadow and Marie
Embracing Shadows: A Tale of New Beginnings with Marie
Lyrics
The dead don’t hear
The deceased cannot perceive or hear.
The wind whip down
The wind blows forcefully.
It whistles through their teeth
It creates a whistling sound passing through their teeth.
But they aren’t cut
Despite the haunting sound, they remain unaffected.
By the lonesome sound
We all fade away with the passing of time.
We all fade in time
We succumb to the darkness of night.
Get struck by the arrow of night
The essence within your physical form doesn't reveal its true nature to me.
But the shadow in your body
The singer expresses unfamiliarity with Marie.
Isn’t what I see
Reiteration of the unfamiliarity and novelty of Marie.
Marie, you are new to me
Invitation for Marie to approach the singer.
Marie, you are new to me
Repeated invitation for Marie to come closer.
So come to me Marie
An urging plea for Marie to join the singer.
Come to me
Reiteration of the plea for Marie to come.
My new Marie
The singer refers to Marie as 'my new Marie.'
You are soft and you are warm
Marie is described as gentle and comforting.
And whatever’s mine is yours
A declaration of sharing everything with Marie.
And you were never weak
Recognition of Marie's strength despite possible emotional coldness.
Though your fingers may be cold
Despite physical coldness, Marie is not perceived as weak.
There is a lesson I think
The singer acknowledges a lesson to be learned, possibly related to warmth or intimacy.
I’m working on that lesson
Expressing efforts to grasp or understand the mentioned lesson.
What do we do with our heat
A contemplation on what to do with passion or warmth.
And the shadow in our bodies
Reiteration of the mysterious nature within individuals.
Marie, you are new to me
Restating the singer's unfamiliarity with Marie.
Marie, you are new to me
Repeated expression of Marie's newness to the singer.
So come to me Marie
An invitation for Marie to join the singer, echoing previous lines.
Come to me
Reiteration of the plea for Marie to approach.
My new Marie
Addressing Marie as 'my new Marie' again.
You are new to me
Reiterating the singer's perception of Marie as new or unfamiliar.
Marie, you are new to me
Repeating the sentiment of unfamiliarity towards Marie.
So come to me Marie
Another plea for Marie to come closer.
Come to me
Restating the plea for Marie to approach.
My new Marie
Final plea for Marie to join the singer.
