To Live Deliciously

Cradle of Filth Cradle of Filth

Embracing the Ecstasy of Life's Chaos

"To Live Deliciously" by Cradle of Filth is a song that delves into the hedonistic pursuit of pleasure and the embrace of life's chaotic beauty. The repeated phrase "We wish to live deliciously" serves as a mantra for indulgence and the desire to experience life to its fullest, without restraint. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a world where the boundaries of conventional morality are blurred, and the pursuit of personal satisfaction takes precedence.

The song's imagery is rich with metaphors, such as "velvet incantations" and "erotic stars," which evoke a sense of mysticism and allure. These elements suggest a world where the ordinary is transformed into the extraordinary, and where individuals are free to explore their desires without fear of judgment. The "garden of delights" and "sea of paradise" symbolize a utopian realm where pleasure is abundant and accessible to all who dare to seek it.

Cradle of Filth, known for their gothic and theatrical style, often explore themes of darkness and the supernatural in their music. In "To Live Deliciously," they invite listeners to embrace the "golden dawn" of a new world, one where the constraints of societal norms are cast aside in favor of a more liberated existence. The song encourages a celebration of life's unpredictability, urging individuals to "revel dishevelled in the chaos of life" and to find empowerment in the night. This message resonates with the band's signature blend of poetic lyricism and dark, atmospheric soundscapes, creating a captivating and thought-provoking experience for the listener.
