"My life was a storm since I was born, how could I fear any hurricane?" This line is amazing knowing the context. Paolo and Francesca were two lovers who were killed by Gianciotto, Paolo's brother but also Francesca's husband, when he found out they had a relationship. In the Divine Comedy, Dante puts both of them in the second circle of Hell, Lust. Their punishment is to be eternally buffeted about by a hurricane so strong that tears their bodies apart-- which is a metaphor to represent how they let themselves be ruled by their lust without controlling it.

[@Jaqvander]

Can you explain this to me please?

[@honeybee8059]

@@Jaqvander I haven't read Dante but from my take on the quote it seems she was in a relationship prior to her true love and the quote is saying that even though she was loved by someone, love doesn't care about that sometimes and she ended up falling in love with someone else while in a relationship and she loved him so truthfully that even in hell she loves him

Paolo and Francesca were lovers in real life and in Dante’s Divine Comedy, condemned to hell for their lust. In hell they are still together and (because they are in hell) incapable of remorse for their sin, therefore their love becomes eternal because of their damnation

[@vanessacg1611]

"therefore their love becomes eternal because of their damnation" is getting tattooed on my forehead thanks

[@marksaunders4142]

Their love isn't eternal because they can't feel remorse. They are constantly in the 2nd circle of hell ,lust, but it's become too normal to feel it. The winds are also relevant as for tearing Their clothing off.

[@idanzick2710]

Oh boy my favorite part of Hozier, do I want to be the singer or the muse. He has such a way of explaining love in ways no one else can. Such power in the phrase "Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I" August 18th can't come fast enough

I was actually born in a blizzard, so the line "My life was a storm since I was born; how could I fear any hurricane," hits me. My life has never been stable, but whenever there are songs or stories that have lines like this I remind myself that I can be strong. My "Francesca" has been the eye of my hurricane for four years now and she makes every uphill battle, every whirlwind, every circle of hell worth it. One minute with her makes everything worth it.

He certainly knows who to quote from. Hozier is great, and just like Dante was writing fanfic based on his favourite Roman and quoting Virgil willy nilly, Hozier's doing the same thing. The line is straight out of Dante.

[@hozierupdates]

Let’s talk about Francesca! Francesca da Rimini or Francesca da Polenta was a medieval noblewoman of Ravenna. She fell in love with Paolo, the younger brother of her old and deformed husband Giovanni, who she had married as part of a political strategy only. Enraged at their betrayal, Giovanni slew both Paolo and Francesca where they laid. In Inferno, Dante and Virgil meet Francesca and her lover Paolo in the second circle of hell, reserved for the lustful. I believe that this song could be from the point of view of either Francesca or Paolo, saying that it was all worth it, that they would literally go through hell again If they could be together one more time. Very Hozier of them 🥺 I am absolutely in love with it! What do you all think about it? 🤎

[@FranniMC]

I stared at those worms and dirt for what felt like hours before being held here.

[@goro_majima98]

I've always found Dante very harsh for putting them in hell. They had no choice.

[@shootsnoot7027]

@@goro_majima98 in his writing, it’s clear that he’s sorry for them. He doesn’t judge them and doesn’t give them such a harsh punishment since they are still together.

[@arthur7henrique]

For me, poetically, thats Paolo's point of view. In the Comedy, Dante only talks to Francesca. Maybe, only now by Hoozier, we hear about what surpasses Paolo's. Dante did the same with this two lovers, noticing them.

[@1800basil]

​@@goro_majima98It was a kind of religious fanfiction, his interpretation. He felt sorry for them and wept for them, whereas the further into Hell he descended the more he changed as a person as well, no longer pitying anyone damned to be there

[@charlotte_frantz1]

My best friend died six weeks ago. I've been too consumed by my grief to listen to any music, but by god this song sums up my emotions so well. I would wander through every single circle of hell, climb every mountain and swim every ocean and experience every bit of agony I've ever been through all over again, two times over if I could just hold her for one more minute. I will look for her in this life, the next, and every life my soul will live, probably including past ones. This song, paired with Unknown, have resonated with me so deeply and helped me realize that I'm not as alone as I feel I am. Maybe this was a bit trauma-dumpy, but I just wanted to share this true testament to how deeply soul-healing Hozier's music is. I don't know who this man sold his soul to to make this kind of life-altering music, but it must've been a worthwhile transaction.

Lyrics for those of us that like to be able to read in their own time: Do you think I'd give up. That this might've shook the love from me, or that I was on the brink. How could you think, darling I'd scare so easily? Now that it's done, There's not one thing that I would change. My life was a storm Since I was born. How could I fear any hurricane? If someone asked me at the end, I'd tell them put me back in it. Darling, I would do it again. If I could hold you for a minute, Darling, I'd go through it again. I would still be surprised I could find you, darling in any life. If I could hold you for a minute, Darling, I would do it again. For all that was said Of where we'd end up at the end of it. When the heart would cease ours never knew peace. What good would it be on the far side of things? It was too soon When that part of you was ripped away. A grip taking hold like a cancer that grows, Each part of your body that it takes. Though I know my heart would break, I'd tell them put me back in it. Darling, I would do it again. If I could hold you for a minute, Darling, I'd go through it again. I would still be surprised I could find you, darling in any life. If I could hold you for a minute, Darling, I would do it again. I would not change it each time. Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I. I would not change it each time. Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I. I would not change it each time. Heaven is not fit to house a love. Like you and I.

Hozier really saw Dante's concept of contrapasso, the concept of the souls in the inferno WANTING to stay in the inferno and said: "I am going to make an album that encapsulates the hell all of us choose to live in and find comfort in every time we learn to love someone or something" and I, for one, love him for it. (on another note: if he's making songs based off souls we meet in hell then I cannot wait for the song inspired by Judas Iscariot that's going to kill me, surely)

Beautiful lyrics to tell this love story. The music keeps pulling me back in and I'm powerless! Thank you for this new album Hozier. Releasing these tracks slowly was actually genius. It has given me time to focus and absorb each song. I am stuck right here!! For now...Thank you for sharing your art with us. I am grateful for who you are, the humble and accessible heart of yours. I'm so excited to see you LIVE again later this year!!! Till then I'll continue to sing your songs very loudly and very often.💚☘

Sometimes I come back to this song just to cry a little. I’ve got tickets for your concert, and I get the shakes just thinking of it. Can’t wait, your music’s truly changed my life. 🤘🫶

Wow! Wow wow 😭 I think I’ve discovered my new favourite Hozier song. This is glorious, beautiful and so incredibly moving ❤

Hey Hozier team! You guys got the Unreal Unearth album release date mixed up in the description! It says April 18 instead of August 18. Thanks for all you do!

listened to this for the first time yesterday- my soul has been soothed on a level i did not know existed and i feel calm now- this has been a useful discovery :3

The more I listen to this song I imagine a really passionate aerial straps performance of a couple spinning around, being flung apart and coming back together, and I feel it's such a perfect thing for this song.

darling, I’d listen to this song for the first time again and again, and I wouldn’t change a thing each time 💕

Going through one of the worst phases of my life, 2023 hasn’t been a kind year, but I was dealing with it good. It’s only Hozier who could make me cry; his new album fits my situation almost perfectly and I just felt everything at once, couldn’t keep the tears in anymore. God am I glad to exist in the same time as He.
