I was listening to music while writing about Pieter Breugel the Elders' The Triumph of Death. They seemed to contrast well together. Here they are - some details annotated with Cherokee lyrics.
The masses being driven into a coffin: "Never knew pain like this, everything die, then die... bury me." |
"Bury me, marry me to the sky" |
"The wind, moon the earth, the sky, Sky so high. Never knew pain like this, everything die" |
Lovers oblivious in the corner "Never knew love like this... Feels like time is on my time... Cherokee, kissing me, When I'm on my way down" |
"Bury me upside down" |
