The King in Yellow I read myself, it's a collection of mysterious stories that end up relating to religion and/or social tenancies that are still relevant today. This represents the ideology of Evolution and keeping up with the proceeding times. The Queen In Red was from Through the Looking Glass, her environment around her was always moving, and she had to run in order to keep up with it. Those of you that don't know, he wrote Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. They mention something along the lines of "King in Yellow, Queen in Red." I researched this and came up with that the Queen in red is from a Lewis Carol book. Recently I have been looking into Blue Oyster Cult and their song ETI. The "Red and Yellow" may link to something. Your interpretation is flawless in terms of everything, I just feel I need to mention something. Anyway, continue writin posts, i love to read em, and again this is only my opinion. Later.Īnd interpretation is now done, thanks for botherin to read this terribly long post (as are all of mine, sorry bout that). He'll continue to connect the 2 to push the boundaries and enlighten himselfĪnd interpretation is now done, thanks for botherin to read this terribly long post (as are all of mine, sorry bout that). He wants that connection of body and spirit, as everyone does. He speaks of 'keeping his feet on the ground', yet he also talks about an enlightenment of somekind 'opening wide to suck it in and feeling it move across his skin'. the lateral lives of body and spirit NEVER have to each other, they can stay completely separate, but he longs to bring them together, to SPIRAL them, and make such a connection to feel DIVINE but remain a HUMAN.) "swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human" (think about it. he speaks about how he has the desire to do all of these wonderful (spiritual and physical) things, and he sums it all up by saying The next part seems to be my strongest point of backing. possibly spiritual meaning saying that he holds on to a belief hoping that he can eventually find truth in it. Then he speaks about reaching out to embrace the random. Yet he retracts these statements by talking about "OVER thinking, and OVER analyzing" (saying that there is a balance in spirit and body, don't push either ot the extreme, because you'll become separate humans, leading a LATERAL life) spiritual life takes you 'beyond the lines of reason'. To keep from breaking down every line in the song (like i did on "the grudge") i'll just say that the next section deals with testing spiritual life (pushin that envelope, watching it bend, almost to see how far it will go). "Red and yellow came to be, reaching out for me" (how spiritual feelings creep up after sometime, and almost seem to make you realize a new side of life) "Black then white are all i see in my infancy" (at birth and early on you only see what's plain to the human eye, the physical side of life) Anyway, it deals with the ability to have a physical life, as well as a spiritual one (In whatever god you chose to believe in). Instead of "Side of Us", i think the song deals with lateral parts (the bigger picture, as maynard put it). Colsy said the title was pronounced "Lateral-Us" (A mistake i made too for a long time) but it's really pronounced "Ladder-alice" (say it and it makes sense, i found this in the FAQ from ). To begin with, I wanna clear up an earlier post. I think it's great seein what other people think. Again this is everyone's THOUGHTS, so if I seem to dis anyone or anything by what I say, nothin bad intended. Hey guys, awesome interpretations so far. We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been. I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.Īnd following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been. With my feet upon the ground I lose myselfīetween the sounds and open wide to suck it in, To swing on the spiral, to swing on the spiral, swing on the spiral. To witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain, Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.Ĭome embrace my desire to, come embrace my desire to,Įnough to step aside and weep like a widow Withering my intuition leaving all these opportunities behind.įeed my will to feel this moment urging me to cross the line. Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I mustįeed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines.Īnd beckons me to look through to these infinite possibilities. Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind. Red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me. Black then white are all I see in my infancy.
