Apéritif
Unveiling Dark Desires: "Apéritif" Song Analysis
Lyrics
First you analyze
First, you examine or scrutinize
Seven o'clock time slot, sofa with a glass of wine
At seven o'clock, in a particular time slot, sitting on a sofa with a glass of wine
You whisper to the chrysalis
You speak softly to the chrysalis (a protective covering for a transforming insect)
You set my mind on fire just to see 'cause you were curious
You sparked my interest intensely just to observe, out of curiosity, what might develop from this
What could emerge from this
The potential outcome or emergence from this situation
I don't want you to know
I prefer that you remain unaware of something
I don't want you to know
-'Cause you're villainous
Because you possess villainous traits
And you're killin' us
And your actions are causing harm to us
You're moving at breakneck speed
You're moving very quickly and recklessly
You're eludin' us
You're avoiding or escaping from us
And consumin' us
You're using up or depleting us
Apéritif
Aperitif (a drink consumed before a meal)
But I can't help the way I feel
But I cannot control the emotions I'm experiencing
I can't help the way I feel
-This is my design
This situation is according to my plan or intention
Set the table, have a heart to heart with our pearly whites
Arrange the setting, have an open and honest conversation while showing our white teeth
Chompin' at the bit, select a victim off the menu, think I'll have the ribs
Feeling impatient or eager, select a victim from a list of choices, thinking of having ribs
Pour another glass and think about what you could possibly have put in it
Pour more wine and contemplate what you might have added to it
Display the body, hide the evidence
Present the body and conceal any proof of wrongdoing
That's the calculus of doing crime
That's the rational approach to committing a crime
I just thought you should know
I believed it was important for you to be informed
I don't mind
I don't object or mind
I just thought you should know
I believed it was important for you to be informed
'Cause you're villainous
Because you possess villainous traits
And you're killin' us
And your actions are causing harm to us
You're moving at breakneck speed
You're moving very quickly and recklessly
You're eludin' us
You're avoiding or escaping from us
And consumin' us
You're using up or depleting us
Apéritif
Aperitif (a drink consumed before a meal)
But I can't help the way I feel
But I cannot control the emotions I'm experiencing
I can't help the way I feel
-Can you see?
Do you perceive or understand?
Can you see?
-Can you see?
-Can you see?
-That you're villainous
That you possess villainous traits
You're killin' us
You're causing harm to us
Breakneck speed
Moving very quickly and recklessly
Eludin' us
Avoiding or escaping from us
Consumin' us
Using up or depleting us
Apéritif
Aperitif (a drink consumed before a meal)
But I can't help the way I feel
But I cannot control the emotions I'm experiencing
I can't help the way I feel
