Mary On A Cross — Ghost
Pencipta & penyanyi: Tobias Forge (vokalis dan penulis utama band Ghost)
Tahun rilis: 2019 (dari album Seven Inches of Satanic Panic)
Filosofi Singkat
Lagu “Mary On A Cross” membungkus kisah cinta dan kenangan dalam balutan simbolisme religius yang provokatif namun puitis. Di balik liriknya yang penuh metafora, Ghost menggambarkan perjalanan dua jiwa yang terikat oleh cinta dan dosa—tentang hubungan yang tak sempurna, tapi meninggalkan bekas yang dalam.
Secara filosofis, lagu ini berbicara tentang dualitas manusia: antara keinginan duniawi dan kesucian batin. Ia mengingatkan bahwa cinta sering kali berjalan di antara garis suci dan fana, dan bahwa dalam setiap kenangan yang “terlarang”, selalu ada bagian dari diri kita yang belajar tentang makna penerimaan, kerinduan, dan kehilangan.
