For anyone who is unaware, the title of this song is based on a short story of the same name, written by michael gira. It comes from a book that is a compilation of Giras short stories called "The Consumer"

I heard your voice in my mind, you were lying I saw you under the door, you were sleeping An ocean bleeds in your veins, now you're melting Your hand holds onto the sun, protecting The air is red and cold, in your insides I feel your tongue in my mind, caressing I feel your eyes in mine, remembering You peel my body away, you're emerging I put my mouth on your name, and I swallowed I heard a sound in your chest, it was hollow Your hand was under my skin, yes l'm fallow I'll curl my body inside, to see through you I love you more than my mind, but l'm lying I can't remember the words, but I loved you I can't remember my name, you live through me I can't remember the words, yeah, l'm lying I can't go on with the song, yeah, you're singing I can't remember your name, you move through me I can't remember the words, now l'm lying I love you more than my mind, you see through me I can't go on with the song, yeah, you're singing I can't remember my name, and you're lying I can't remember the words, but I love you I can't remember the words, yes I love you

Formidable and unforgettable song, touches the bottom of the soul. Each Swans song is a breath of life that has been fantasized of a death sentence.

@@hollandaisvolant9943 I didn't say it's something they aspired to, I said it's something they fit into. No worthwhile artist tries to produce generic work (ie work that fits a particular genre), but that does not mean that the work will not be adopted by people who consume a particular genre anyway. Swans fans have a reputation (more before the indie-rock hipsters adopted them around the time The Seer was released) for being 30- to 50-year-old fat goth chicks who practice Wicca. Meanwhile Bauhaus was one of the codifying bands for gothic rock/deathrock, along with acts like Siouxsie and the Banshees and Joy Division, and from that we can also conclude that Peter Murphy wasn't trying to make "gothic rock" music. Yet only a fool, an absolute knave, would say that either Bauhaus or Swans don't fit in the gothic milieu. However, ignoring the cultural influence and history of the bands completely, there are two key things that make them similar to each other but different from most other music: Dark and especially death-centric themes (where the staggering majority of all lyrical songs are love songs with muddy themes at worst), and the thing KZitem's algorithm cares about, which is that a great many fans of the one are also fans of the other, so it recommends listeners of one to listen to the other. That crossover fanbase is the "gothic milieu" btw.
