Trespassing Album Track #15: Nirvana

Maybe she was being sarcastic :(

This is the song that I most listen to on repeat. It's my escape. Peaceful, hopeful. I love the part when sings fly highhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. And later when the synths make those little upward runs. Sigh.

NIRVANA

When the stars are too cold
Frozen over their glow
On the edge of the night
We can be their light


The coldness of the stars symbolizes the harsh reality which can be very cold for two gay lovers. One lover tells the other that their love is powerful enough to bring back the light, to the world, to the stars. Or that it can create light for themselves, they won't remain in the imposed darkness.

So give me more than your touch
Give yourself to the rush
Just keep holding my hand


He needs more than physical connection, it's not just sex. Give me your love, your soul, your trust. Succumb to the feeling of love, don't hold back, let me guide you, let yourself feel and connect with me emotionally.


As we're taking off
I know where we'll land
We can escape to a higher plane
In nirvana stay
Where the dreamers lay
I'll lay you down, lay you down
Safe on a higher plane
In nirvana stay
Where the dreamers lay
I'll lay you down, lay you down


A higher plane of reality,a parallel universe of love, where abide those who believe in it, pure-hearted, those who believe that gender is irrelevant, that everything else is trivial apart from that divine feeling - the dreamers. You'll be safe here, I'll make love to you here, where we can stay in this transcendent state of nirvana, which symbolizes the utter and blissful connection of two spirits and souls in love. Nirvana is an ideal condition of bliss and joy. Unspoiled by the cold, harsh darkness of the judgemental world.

Through the dark there's a way
There's a love, there's a place
Where we don't have to hide
We can dream all night
So follow me through the sky
And watch the oceans collide
Just keep holding my hand
As we're taking off
I know where we'll land

They have to hide in the real world. Outlaws of Love. That's why the lovers return to nature, the mother of all beings, and she accepts them, they are her children, the sky, the ocean watch them holding their hands, love giving them fuel to take off to the nature's essence and core, where love is the creative force appreciated in all its forms.


Oh, we don't need any diamonds
Or gold
Watch the mystic and cryptic unfold
As we fly high

Of course they don't need diamonds and gold. Maybe Adam'd leave it all. Sacrifice everything if he has to. The mystic and the cryptic refer to ancient philosophies and civilizations. The ones he's so fascinated by, for a reason. They were much more in touch with the inner being, focused on the man, not on the outside, the veneer, like ours is.

Maybe there's a hint of getting high ( using drugs) involved here, so the diamonds could refer to LSD ( Lucy in the Sky with Diamond?) , but I think it's a casual double entendre, if at all. And he says they don't need it.

IS THERE AN AWARD FOR SONGWRITING IN THE USA? THE GRAMMYS, ANYTHING????

You're SO right!!! Yes, they do not need to get married, i.e. to get their union acknowledged by the law to know that it's there.
It didn't even cross my mind. Diamonds and rings. Stupid, materialistic, irrelevant symbols of the union of marriage.
