Shade of the Darker Sun
Shadows of Self: Unveiling the Dark Symphony
Lyrics
I will betray the world but not my own kin
I am willing to betray the world, but not my own family or kin.
I sway the water away cut my hand and bleed
I divert or control the flow of emotions, even if it means causing harm to myself.
Today, every day I see the clarity fade shrouded in the thoughts of doubt
Every day, I witness a loss of clarity, surrounded by thoughts of uncertainty or hesitation.
I have all the world on my shoulders but none of the riches they bear
Despite carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders, I lack the material wealth associated with it.
And I'll die for my sins the sins the world made for me
I am ready to die for the sins, which are not solely mine but imposed by the world.
Ripping the canvas of law and virtue with my rusted blades
I tear apart established norms and virtues using my worn-out or corrupted tools.
When the stars align and my dreams become true
My aspirations come true when celestial bodies align in a fortuitous manner.
Liberation in death let the lies cut deeper
Death brings freedom, and falsehoods cut deeper into the fabric of lies.
Curse this world and its own child who I once were
Cursing the world and its own child, a reference to the speaker's past self.
Today, every day I see the clarity fade shrouded in the thoughts of doubt
Similar to line 4, a repetition emphasizing the fading clarity and pervasive doubt.
I bury the words they say, my lament in chaos
I bury or ignore the words spoken about me, expressing my grief amid chaos.
Yet the edicts of false pour through the soil, and break the silence
Despite attempts to silence, false proclamations persist and disrupt the peace.
I have all the world on my shoulders but none of the riches they bear
Reiteration of line 6, emphasizing the burden without the accompanying wealth.
An oeuvre as dark as my soul as I live under the shade of the darker sun
My creations or works reflect the darkness within me, living under the influence of a darker sun.
I am my own god, I need no one else to find the truth
I am self-sufficient, considering myself a god and needing no external validation for truth.
Did I choose to die or choose what they did for me?
Questioning whether my death was a personal choice or a consequence of external forces.
I am the architect, murderer of intrinsic values
Identifying as the creator or destroyer of fundamental values inherent to existence.
