Even though it's not a Jonas-work, does anyone have any intepretation of the lyrics? I'm trying to work out some meaning from them, but they're just too cryptic.
O, How I Enjoy The Light.

Yeah pretty cryptic stuff "a polar bear has breached a pup" euh?
But definatly a beautiful song!
I dont even want to know what its about .. Like to give my own interpretation.
I dont even try to really make a story out of it but I just have certain visions and it makes me feel a certain way ... wich I can't really explain ..
but that's what I like about that kind of songs...

I know what you mean...I sent the lyrics to my girlfriend...I don't know why, but it just sounds like the way I feel about her

Sorry, but what about lines: "...we walk hand in hand, o, how I despise it..." - did she really like it? And "I will love you forever. And if I don't? If I do?" - sort of doubt, don't you think? I think it's not about love and romance, it's about devorce and break up.VampiricYouth said:I know what you mean...I sent the lyrics to my girlfriend...I don't know why, but it just sounds like the way I feel about her

Maybe.. if you take the lyrics literally but if you have a different feeling with it... why say it is wrong? everyone has his own version in his mind...
I don't think there is 1 "good" interpretation

It's true, but sure there is a "right" meaning of the song, and only the author know it. So we should just ask, he-he. By the way, anyone heard an orginal of it? Couldn't find it... And I can explain why I think that this song is sad and it's about a break up: Jonas have very sad voice and he is like crying and moaning, but in the end he become more solid, because is still thinking that everything can return. It's like a remebrence he is describing to us. This is my version about what is Katatonia seeing in this lyrics.

Sorry, a little out of thread question. I know, that there is only two covers by Katatonia: this one and Nightmares by the Sea. Am I wrong? Maybe there is others...
I don't think it's about a break up. I think it's about feelings that will always remain between two people. When there is trouble in a relationship, those feelings of light that each partner gives the other will be what lifts things back up.

It has an awesome vibe to it. I often listen to it in bad times, sort of awaiting "the light" such as turning points and positive things.

Very deep and wise vision about the "eternal" feeling.
