Lyrics
By the ocean's sharpest cliff he stood, a mournful mind in pain
Standing by a sharp cliff near the ocean, feeling sorrowful and distressed
The callous wind ravished his peer to drown in stygian seas
The harsh wind overwhelmed his companion, causing them to sink into dark and gloomy seas
Once a traveler beyond misery, no longer could he flee
Once someone who traveled beyond sorrow, now unable to escape it
He beheld the rage of Aquilo and witnessed his promising words
Witnessed the fury of a powerful force (Aquilo) and heard promising words, possibly about leaving with the waves (escaping)
To leave with the waves
A desire or suggestion to depart with the waves, indicating a wish to escape or leave
As he climbed the white stairs to the throne, bareness filled his sight
Ascending to a position of authority or power, feeling emptiness or lack
Sharply rose the bird of prey to leave him to the night
A bird of prey sharply ascended, leaving him alone in the darkness
Words in armor weathered in the shade, his grieving heart stood still
Expressions of strength (words in armor) facing difficulties, with a grieving heart remaining unmoved
He caressed the harp of sorrow, and the woeful chord warbled a curse
Playing a sorrowful tune on the harp, causing a sorrowful sound that invokes a curse
He was doomed to disgrace
Fated to suffer disgrace or shame
Will the scathing throes leave me be when in earth?
Questioning if the intense suffering will cease upon death or burial
But if I surrendered would the firmaments burst into dust?
Contemplating whether surrendering would result in the destruction of everything
A withering hope in a spiral of anguish
A fading hope amidst increasing despair and pain
Towards the depths where madness thrives
Heading towards depths where insanity and torment flourish
A sinking ship in the wake of Charon
Comparing oneself to a sinking ship in the presence of Charon, the ferryman of the underworld, implying imminent demise or inevitable passage to the afterlife
In this realm I won't survive
Expressing a belief that survival is impossible in this realm
Feel the breeze of Arawn
Sensing the atmosphere associated with Arawn, a figure from Welsh mythology connected with the underworld
Breathe the air of silence
Experiencing a profound silence, perhaps linked to a state of desolation or loss
The merciless' own consciousness shall drown in great misfortune
The consciousness of the merciless (possibly a reference to fate or a powerful force) will suffer great misfortune or calamity
He was lost to the ocean
The person was engulfed or consumed by the ocean, lost in a demonic realm
In the realm of the demon
Existing within the dominion or sphere of a demon or evil entity
