What would be the best solution in overcoming your past and present issues? is it drowning yourself in the sweet velvet taste of wine and alcohol?
Novellino was an aspiring young man at the age of 22, born from a rich family. He was awed for being in such a lineage, although childhood was bleak and mostly to him it never existed. Parents were too obsessed but often told he was never enough. He has been often been played around and used by many and left him like a poor rag doll in the trash. Within his teenage years he had fallen for a young woman, Merlot. Although with his poor moral principles and being blinded by a one-sided relationship he has fallen into victim with false love, and he had nobody else to blame but himself.
No friends, lacking social skills, and he copes through all this through holding parties, an attempt to be a part of a community. He was famous for that, and maybe had some acquaintances but never a close relationship. He further spirals himself down the rabbit hole from the alcohol, the constant quarrels in the bar, and the blaring noise of the music. It was all a white noise. And in the middle of a tension.
"Hey you... seem familiar?"
A bittersweet voice he had come to love and hate.
"Do you wanna dance again?" Merlot giggles at the sight of him, followed with the sound of a grim laughter from Novellino himself.
The bottle he had been suppressing for years breaks and the world was his enemy.
lyrics
I tried to reach out but I do not think
that they would say the same
All they do is turn their
heads and walked away
No matter what I even do
No matter what I even say
Nothing but a puppet just
exploiting me til i decay
In time I've learned how to hold myself back
But I, a fool who has never learned how to
Take a step back and breathe it in
All my bottled feelings are spiraling into insanity
Raise your glass
For this might be our last
Dance of tonight's wasted endeavors
`til our head's run dry, until it hurts to cry
So shut your mouth and dance with me now!
Let the wildness circulate
And don't hold back to what is fate
The tension's high don't try to stop
Keep dancing til the bodies drop
Again, my habits are all mixed up
with this unforgiving plague
And this part of me they titled as my rage
Take me back into the days where i had never did such inclinations
Take me back to where i never had this instinct to react upon on
Shattered glass scattered amongst our own very lives
We try to put them back up again but it will hurt us so
Hidden in the darkened red: A wasted endeavor
The night's still young yet why are we here
laughing through our tears?
Step back and breathe it in
All my bottled feelings are spiraling into insanity
Raise your glass for this might be our last
Dance of tonight's little desolation
Head's run dry and does it hurts to cry?
Still, shut your mouth and dance with me now!
Let the wildness circulate
And don't hold back to what is fake
The tension's high don't try to stop
Keep dancing til the bodies drop
Crashing down like an endless stream and
tainted red like the blood of my own enemies
Just ignore whatever happened
Party's over time to move on
Why are you all suddenly leaving?
We still have another glass
Raise your glass for this might be our last
Dance of tonight's wasted endeavors
'til our head's run dry, well does it hurts to cry?
Please shut the fuck up, dance with me now!
Don't you dare, ignore the music now!
Aim your attention to only me!
Just forget the steps, don't need it anymore
I'll dance alone 'til I break the floor
Let the wildness overtake
I can't hold back to what is fate
The tension's high and I can't stop
I'll just keep crying til I drop

After 5 years of listening to GHOST, I still fall in love with every new release. I've listened to this song at least 100 times now. GHOST's music means a lot to me, and I'm so happy they keep producing after all these years. snow

this was the very first Ghost song i ever heard! learned of its existence in 2021 after a very moving break-up and it's been a staple of my favourite-songs playlists ever since. even at the worst of times, this song can make me feel a teensy bit better, even if it's just by... being there, like a good friend, when i long for a little comfort :) ·-·· ·· ·· ··-·/··· - ·- ·-· ··· - --- ·-· --/-·- ··· -·-·
