Dead Candles
Embracing Shadows: Unveiling the Deep Meaning Behind 'Dead Candles' by Foredoomed
Lyrics
The dark clouds loom above the world
The world is under the influence of ominous forces represented by dark clouds.
Like sins that overshadow your life, forever
Similar to sins that cast a perpetual shadow over one's life.
Don't turn loose the words of false
Caution against expressing untrue or insincere words.
Don't pray for another savior to save your soul
Discouragement from seeking salvation from external sources; personal responsibility is emphasized.
Find the passage through the dark
Search for a way through difficult times.
Wake up from your deepest sleep
A call to awaken from a profound slumber, possibly metaphorical.
Now tell me have you lost your heart?
Questioning if the individual has become emotionally detached or apathetic.
Have you lost your flame?
Asking if the passion or enthusiasm has been extinguished.
For you've forgotten your old name
Not recognizing one's true identity, possibly due to personal neglect.
The darkness descends on your soul
The metaphorical descent of darkness onto the soul.
As wind has quenched the light
Symbolic extinguishing of light by the wind.
And candle has fallen to the night
Imagery of a fallen candle in the night, representing loss or defeat.
Are you the warden of your own prison of grief?
Questioning if the individual is the one responsible for their emotional imprisonment.
The candelabra broken in midnight
Symbolism of a broken candelabra at midnight, suggesting a significant disruption.
And is it time for the dawn to rise in your soul?
Pondering if it's time for a positive change or transformation in one's soul.
Find the passage through the dark
Reiteration of the need to find a path through difficulties.
Wake up from your deepest sleep
