Whats Up All,

I have question for all of you is it me or almost all the melodic death metal bands very metaphorical about stuff. Because when I read the lyrics to some of Dt's shit I have no clue what the hell they are talking about like what do they mean by...

Therein lies the beauty
It was solid
Yet ever changing
It was different
Yet the same
And I starve myself for Energy

What does Michael Stahne mean by the chorus to Therein. I love the song so much and the emotion in the song relates to me so well, but I dont know what they mean by the lyrics.
And what is the song Auction all about. Is it about slavery or something much different? And I do not understand the meaning behind Freecard.

Another No-Night
Awaits it's turn
So I call upon
My Freecard
To postpone

What is the meaning behind that chorus it just doesnt make sense when I hear it. Dark Tranquility are such a great band but why can't that make more sense with all their lyrics. Tell me what all of you think about this subject.
