/ Kashmir / I think this song is about a rather cynic person’s relation to love.
/ The Cynic / The point is that he eventually falls in love, despite his cruel and
/ No Balance Palace / cynic treatment of his surroundings. The song is sung with a quite
/___________________/ ironic tone to give it a humorous twist - Kashmir in their best days.
