Eisblume - Eisblumen (English Subtitles / Translation) (Flowers of Ice)

The beautiful song "Eisblumen" by German newcomer artist Eisblume. I translated the song to English and added the subtitles so that non-German people can understand what it's about.

[Pestinha92]

We live in the darkness blinded by our desires, and we refuse to leave it because we got used to that and because its part of out natures too.

When we're one step away from the light and revelations we just turn our backs to it.

Iceflowers, the flowers that live in the darkness, pale and cold. We are cold towards everything, we pale before the troubles. This is my intrepetation.

[kimberleyjackson]

That's really interesting how people have entirely different interpretations! O.O

I always understood it to be more a song of outsiders of society - of difference, and acceptance. They're iceflowers - they cannot be like everybody else (live in daylight) cause that would kill them and they can only find their true destiny if they stand by themselves and face the darkness (that they are different).

Anyway thank you for the comment!! Very interesting and it made me think! :)

dieser Text ist nicht richtig, der ist das Lied von Bushido :/

[Pestinha92]

Thanks for the comment back too :)

Yea, there are many intepretations it just depends on how we see things.

It was an analysis of the first time I heard it with lyrics so it was all heart and soul.

Your seems plausible too :)

[Pestinha92]

So basicaly the video is a critic to humanity itself. Our actions and the consequences of it, how we hide our true natures and how everything is revelead.

We live in darkess and run away from the light.

[Lunacris6]
