Forever

@beyonda So, with your tolerance, let me talk a little more about how it made me feel :) English is not my native language. Since I wrote these articles with a translator, there may have been some sentence errors. I apologize in advance for this.

Who knew that Siouxie, a weak and up-and-coming "punk" among the fan-friend group standing behind in an old television program where John Lydon and the newly known Sex Pistols were guests, would one day form a band and make such a song?

"Infinity stretches unlimitedly Countless days pass by immeasurably Anniversaries gutter in the maelstrom Whorling a snowstorm of lustrous millennium"

This intro is already half of the song in my opinion. Do you remember your youth? The times when you were still young and had an "eternal" life ahead of you? Those days when no matter how much you smoke, you wake up with lungs made of steel, no matter how much alcohol you consume, you wake up completely renewed the next morning. The times when salt, fat, sugar, excitement and stress were just "movie of the day". If a black love that happens to you in these periods when you do not calculate the time and live without knowing what will happen to you tomorrow finds a reciprocal response, your unlimited time in your youth extends forever with that person. And "milestones" such as days, months, anniversaries are mixed in this love malestrom, sometimes without realizing how many days have passed and how far you have come.

This is a sign of well-being and trust. When a person sees that he (or she) is safe, after a while he tends to pay less attention to the events he attaches importance to. Even though it was stormy, he (or she) admits that when he(or she) lost his/her loved one forever through a sudden and traumatic separation, he/she was always worried about the fact that such a wonderful love would not last forever, and that he/she was always afraid of it (when she says "I've lost you for ever and ever" here, she is actually stubbornly referring to that "forever" period of her youth. In other words, even though she knows that her youth is now stubbornly does not want to accept that it is over). and establishes the introduction of the musical concept with the post-modern funeral march she wrote for her own lost love in her deep drunkenness. Towards the end, when the song moves into major tones, she says, as if trying to deceive herself, "I already knew this, but life goes on. What should we do?" It's like she's trying to put on a false optimism. But even feeling this is painful enough for the listeners.

As someone who lived through those periods and those violent loves, if I'm right in my thoughts (of course Siouxie knows it now), I immediately got the message after listening to the song a few times. I was amazed when I first listened to it, but it took me a few more listens for the lyrics to mean something to me.

As I said, it is a masterpiece that should be read like a book and thought about many times.
