Unknown Entity
Embracing Darkness: Defile the Crown's Ode to a World in Crisis
Lyrics
The pandemic has come to halt
The pandemic has caused a pause or disruption.
But like the dark we're left in doubt
Despite the end of the pandemic, uncertainty lingers like darkness.
Millions left dead, starving and fighting
Millions are dead, hungry, and in conflict.
Not knowing what tomorrow brings
Uncertainty about the future prevails.
Hypocrisy flies by blind eyes
Hypocrisy goes unnoticed by oblivious individuals.
Deaf ears told to fall in line
People are instructed to conform without listening.
People born and buried all alone
People are born and die in isolation.
Creatures afraid of the unknown
There is fear of the unknown among creatures.
Now not even the angels sing
Angels no longer provide solace.
So darkness where's the light
Questions arise about where light exists in darkness.
I feel there's no end in sight
A feeling of endless despair.
We've all become blind and obscene
Society has become morally blind and obscene.
Can someone hold onto me
A plea for someone to offer support.
Fear is the only thing that's left
Fear is the predominant emotion.
Fear of the entity that strikes
Fear of an unknown entity that inflicts harm.
Something that can't be fought or seen
The entity is intangible and unbeatable.
Like a demon it came to deceive
Comparing the entity to a deceptive demon.
Mothers left crying, broken, defeated
Moms are left devastated and defeated.
Who's gonna comfort the broken pieces
Concern about who will mend the broken pieces.
Not the ones up on corporate hill
Those in power don't provide comfort.
Spreading fear like a sickness to pass a bill
Leaders use fear to manipulate for personal gain.
So darkness where's the light
Reiteration of the search for light in darkness.
I feel there's no end in sight
A persistent feeling of hopelessness.
We've all become blind and obscene
Society is morally lost and obscene.
Can someone hold onto me
A plea for someone to provide support.
Misery is all I see
Misery dominates the individual's perspective.
I can't let this be the death of me
Fear of succumbing to the prevailing circumstances.
I'm holding on and I'm told to let go
Resisting pressure to let go.
But what's a life without a soul
Questioning the value of life without a soul.
And not even the angels sing
Angels remain silent.
And not even the angels sing
Repetition of the silence of angels.
And not even the angels sing
-And not even the angels sing
-So darkness where's the light
-I feel there's no end in sight
Endless despair is felt collectively.
We've all become blind and obscene
Society is morally lost and obscene.
Can someone hold onto me
A plea for someone to provide support.
Misery is all I see
Misery dominates the individual's perspective.
I can't let this be the death of me
Fear of succumbing to the prevailing circumstances.
I'm holding on and I'm told to let go
Resisting pressure to let go.
But what's a life without a soul
Questioning the value of life without a soul.
It's coming, it's coming
Repetition of the imminent arrival and destructive nature of an unknown entity.
Unknown entity
-Destroying, destroying
-Unknown entity
-It's coming, it's coming
-Unknown entity
-Destroying, destroying
-Unknown entity
