She'll dance again She'll laugh again She'll smile again She'll live again The progression and decay of his hopes for her 😭

yet also , beautifully how the flame and ember of tenacity to keep fighting for her and help her fight to cling to life still lingers can just Imagen the story ending with the wife having a fluke recovery or such towards the end ,when the doctor falters from the strain of constant fevered research and care ..so the worlds first cyborg or 'mind infused' clockwork man becomes the good doctor as she leets him see her smile , laugh and dance agen before carrying him to it declaring he spent a lifetime making sure she felt cared for forging an way for her to evade death now she has smilled agen laughed and danced and , he deserves a body as tireless like his empathy

Usually, this type of narrative has two key differences. One, the doctor puts the research above their love until it's too late. Here, he cares for her and reads to her until the end. Two, they almost universally fail. While his success here is dubious and debatable, it's still further than they get in the typical narrative. I think it's strengthened greatly by these two deviations from the norm. It makes the doctor more sympathetic and harder to scorn. Usually these types are villains or used to prove a point about cherishing what you have. This doctor shows true love and true desperation to keep hold of it however he can. The lyrics, also, are amazing. The repetition of what she told him really drives home his drive and determination. The subtle shift of "she'll dance again" then "she'll laugh again" until he'll be satisfied just to see her smile once more. It also reinforces his desperation, but it also reinforces how she's degrading in condition. Almost every word reinforces some aspect of the story. Emphasizes the tragedy. The music itself may not be my favorite thing, but these are some of the best written lyrics I've ever had the pleasure of listening to, and it's a damn good story for a six minute song.

+Rabek Jeris I also found myself very impacted by the fact that one of the last things they mention failing was her heart, which he's replaced with a machine. Considering the symbolism of one's heart, it gives me the feeling that there's really nothing left of "her" anymore, and yet he still can't let go. What's left is a construction of how he remembers her.
@Lightice18 жыл бұрын
+Rabek Jeris The narrative suggests that a person with originally good intentions ends up becoming driven and obsessed until he's lost the sight of his original goal and ended up creating a some kind of steampunk zombie from the remains of his loved one. It's a pretty common trope as the song presents, actually, of someone who can't let go of a dead loved one and ends up with either a tormented undead or a literal corpse at the dinner table, depending on whether the story's supernatural or not.

To me her message is the saddest. Because he takes it so far. The last repetition is different, because he feels she'd want to be saved no matter the cost, but it's one of those profound mind tricks where I doubt she'd want to live at such a cost. Her message is one of love, but it turns to obsession because he's grieving and it will cost him his life as well.

The point when he has passed through determination to cure her, fear of losing her as his research fails him, denial that she's already gone when she's become comatose, hopelessness as the illness begins destroying her organs, and finally into pure desperation as he crosses that final line and resorts to "questionable" methods to bring her back... You can practically hear the crazed look in his eyes by the end.

Theres so many absolutley great details in the song. As the female quote is first a memory, then he hears it in his mind and finnaly he hears her telling him it again no longer able to separate memory from hallucination. That or hes actually recorded her to say it each night. Both equally disturbing. That and her quote is in all likleyhood not in context of the state she is in now. Its my favorite song of all times as no other song has ever made me wonder so much about every word delivery or beautifull tragic tone

Given the name of the group and thematics with other songs and the line of loosing, I took it in a literal sense; that he's been physically repairing and replacing her failing parts with some sort of steampunk equivalent, with ambiguous success.

lyrics: Monday the twenty-sixth of March The patient's passing seizures are becoming more pronounced by the day The underlying cause Seems to be some slow progressive decay If I don't find a cure I fear my patient must surely fade away But I swear I'll apply my science To the cause Brooking no defiance I'll deliver her from this malady She'll dance again And I'll never forget when we first were courting And she faced me, and her eyes were gleaming In the moonlight, and she spoke so sweetly (Don't let me go, my darling Hold me safely 'til the morning Promise, when the lights are fading You'll save me.) Tuesday the seventeenth of May A worrying symptom has reared its head this week She's been bedbound for a month And now the patient is no longer able to speak She tries to utter sounds But the grip of the illness is strong and the patient is weak On the bed, in a cold sweat Like a corpse, but she'll live yet When I find the cure, I can surely promise She'll laugh again As she did on our wedding day When we danced, and laughed the world away Even now I can hear her say (Don't let me go, my darling Hold me safely 'til the morning Promise, when the lights are fading You'll save me.) Sunday the twenty-third of June The patient no longer responds to stimuli of any kind She's now my only charge I clothe her and feed her, and nightly I read by her side For though she's paralysed I know that inside there must still be a functioning mind Neatly laid on the bedsheet I can still hear her fading heart-beat I'll keep her stable and continue my research She'll smile again And I must bring her back to me In her eyes I can see the gleam In my mind I can hear her pleading (Don't let me go, my darling Hold me safely 'til the morning Promise, when the lights are fading You'll save me.) Tuesday the eighteenth of July My latest apparatus is the only thing that's keeping her alive I had to stop her heart The mechanical replacement will ensure the other organs can survive Her body is destroyed But what nature has neglected the fruit of modern science shall provide And I've broken every code of practice But for my love I'd shift the planet's axis She'll return to me when she's been repaired She'll live again And I swear I can see the gleam In her eyes amidst the new machines And at night I can hear her whisper (Don't let me go, my darling Hold me safely 'til the morning Promise, when the lights are fading You'll save me. You'll save me!)

@enevy31656 жыл бұрын
I agree completely. What really tugs at my heart strings as well is the slow progression of the disease as well as the decline of the doctor's sanity. The more the song progresses, the more the doctor becomes desperate, and the more we as listeners feel the doctor's desperation. Come on, while you were listening to this, didn't you want the wife to survive in the end too the longer you listened to the song?? The fact that the wife finally died at the end while the same words from the beginning echoed in the doctor's head makes the song even sadder. Despite his perseverance, dedication, determination and devotion to saving his wife... He never could, and the song ends with the wife's voice still pleading for the doctor to save her even though it was too late.

I first got into steam punk around 8 years ago. Clockwork Quartet, the Cog is dead, steampowered giraffe, abney park and many more were my entire childhood. Finally coming back to this song and the watchmakers apprentice brings back happy memories. This song makes me incredibly emotional and I love listening to it. It's a bit sad to see that the Clockwork Quartet project has been given up on. I would love to have a fourth song. I also still know the lyrics to this song which is in my humble opinion about myself... quite incredible.

I have not yet clicked the link, so I know nothing more than what I've heard in this song, but here's my analysis: The language used and the technology spoken of and heard (typewriters and such) makes it sound like the era is somewhere around 1920-1930. Right after the widespread introduction of electricity, but before home machinery was a thing. We can therefore assume that the machinery the doctor is speaking about is entirely mechanical, maybe operating by rudimentary electrical motors, but no more than that. So we know we're not talking about a cyborg in the sense we know it, it's more a human kept alive by mechanical means. But we also know he succeeded, because he heard her whisper at the end. Before that moment, it was all "in my mind", but at that point it was "from the machines". He also said machines in plural, meaning he replaced more than her heart. And that her body had failed, but mentioning keeping organs alive. From this we can assume that the machinery is not mobile, nor is it humanoid. More likely is that he took her organs out of her body and put into a stationary set of machines, either carefully making sure the nerves were still connected, or replacing the nerves with electrical cords. Her brain in one machine, her lungs in another, her liver in a third etc.. This is why her voice came from WITHIN the mass of machines, her vocal cords are somewhere in the middle and not capable of much more than a whisper. Her awareness of her surroundings have failed and she perceives the world as a perpetual dusk, she is scared and cold and wishes for nothing more than her husband to hold her close, warm and comforting, but she will never again be able to feel that. It is unlikely she will even be able to hear his voice again. After all of this, she has hope and he has kept her alive, but he can never give her what she desires again. And that is the tragedy of this tale. He saved her, but she lost him and now he can hear her reaction to losing him, whispering for his touch until the machines fail or he turns them off.

One of the biggest tragedies in modern music, the fact this band made this masterpiece and gave us the old Irish goodbye!

It doesn't matter how many times we make our journey to my parents. We always try to visit every month or so. It's a three-hour journey from our home to theirs. I always drive. I let my husband choose the music. This song always finds a way to our trek. I'm the one who introduced him this to this song. Should I be worried?

fristly there absolutely MUST be a music video for this, secondly there absolutely MUST be a part 2. i want to know about how he saves her and how her life and love is renewed and then she dances and he dances with her and it'd be so beautiful

That's the whole point of not having a part two, he doesn't save her. He completely replaced her flesh with machinery and she turned into a lifeless machine. It's a story about a mad doctor trying to desperately save his wife, but slowly doing the opposite.

except the doctor is killed at 6 on the dot by a faulty clock he buys, leaving his wife as a part robot forever to then die. :P

DeathlordMiopic, that is an awesome theory!

bLexi57 the voice in the song closer is the doctors wife,, the astrologist being the mister, who spends his money on more complicated observatory items, so because of the encouragement of the wife when she lives, she ended up ruining the life of a clockmaker, got an astronomer/clockmaker put in jail, and killed her husband.... I just wrote a musical :P

his is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I come across and one of the only love songs that doesn’t make my heart ache so much as weep (pardon the stupidity). I love it to pieces.

Guys What if the female background singer's voice became gradually more robotic? It would be so epic.

Anyone know any other groups like this? Story-driven, clockwork-y, stage-musical-esk music. I've found 'steampunk Opera: New Albion' which is kind of close.
