Me too, it's beautiful :heart:

I just realized how freaky Megalomania is... :freak:

 

Paradise comes at a price

That I am not prepared to pay

What were we built for?

Could someone tell me please

 

The good news is she can't have babies

And won't except gifts from me

What are they for?

They'll just grow up

And break the laws you've loved

 

Take off your disguise

I know that underneath

It's me

Who are you oooh

 

Useless device, it won't suffice

I want a new game to play

When I am gone

It won't be long, before I disturb you in the dark

I KNOW!!!!

The first time I heard it, I rewound the "the good news is" I couldn't believe that he wrote that..

its really weird.

Hehe, yeah.

 

The thing that gets me is the "It won't be long, before I disturb you in the dark" line...

 

It makes me wonder... "er, Matt, are you okay?"

We all know he can be a little luney.

But thats what makes me love him.

But who knows, eh really.. he could have meant anything :thinking:

Yeah, I was reading a bunch of Muse lyrics and a majority of them are quite dark. O.o

 

Anyway, I'm really loving Crying Shame and Easily...

I really didn't like Easily at first, I really grew on me though.:nice:

Heh, same here. But I've listened to it 15 times or something within the past few hours... lmfao.

Lmao, Someone said on Youtube that Chris wrote it, and I checked with the people on muse.mu and they all said that Matt wrote it, but wouldn't it be neat if Chris wrote songs?

haha.

The thing I've noticed about songs like Megalomania, Stockholm Syndrome or Hysteria- the ones that can be kind of dark and disturbing and nonsensical- is that the lyrics are about what the title is. If you think about Megalomania as a song that was written specifically about megalomania, it makes sense.

Megalomania: A psychopathological condition characterized by delusional fantasies of wealth, power, or omnipotence.

An obsession with grandiose or extravagant things or actions.

 

internezzzing.:thinking:

 

But Stockholm, that must have been a realllly weird relationship.

haha

Megalomania is an unrealistic belief in one's superiority, grandiose abilities, and even omnipotence. It is characterized by a need for total power and control over others, and is marked by a lack of empathy for anything that is perceived as not feeding the self.

 

It also often gets confused with Narcissism- an excessive love of self. The lack of empathy part certainly explains the line about babies...

 

I think the part about take off your disguise is saying something like wait a minute this is me thinking this and it isn't right, I can't go justifying it. You know those little self-centered thoughts that go flitting through the back of your mind before being dismissed by things like empathy or logic or whatever.

 

Anyway, sorry just having another English student moment. :smart: It's what I get for spending too much time analysing poetry for class, I guess. :freak:

:laugh4:

I didn't understand that part of the text like you. I think he really talks to someone else and, because he is megalomaniac - so self-centered -, thinks everyone else is just a moron, badly trying to imitate his goodness.

 

But I'm French, so i could misunderstand lyrics.

long time without listening to Muse.. ermm.. like since 2 weeks or more.. and now I'm listening sing for absolution and well.. I missed them :bigcry:

Re : Loretin,

A few months ago I discovered Muse and I like very much this group, specially Absolution which is better than their previous CD that i have also bought.

I'm becoming addicted to Muse.... may be even obsesed, yesterday i saw a guy that looked exactly like Muse's singer, the same eyes, but the face a bit fatter... lol.
