Remember that whole epiphany thing I had about life's meaninglessness and the end of all things beautiful? Well I kept listening to this song the whole time and it just amplified the dreamy state I was in. Also a good song to listen to when you're all 420, but that's not important. This was a cover of Deftones' song, Minerva, and Fightstar made it into an electronic-ish acoustic version and yes I am still obsessed with Fightstar so shut up. They're great.
Credits to Deftones of course, for the beautiful lyrics. Many fans have interpreted it as a tribute to all women who have developed themselves in proper ways; mostly the older matured ones. Minerva is the goddess of handicrafts and arts, as well as war and music, in roman religion. I'm not sure how this relates to the end of all things beautiful, but isn't the beauty of music and lyrics about how it can be interpreted in any way, by anyone?
I get all numb
When she sings it's over
Such a strange numb
and it brings my knees to the earth
So God bless you all
for the song you saved
us
For the hearts you break, every time you moan
God bless you all on the earth
