Lyrics

We wander this wasteland

We are aimlessly moving through a desolate and barren place.

Disciples of a long dead king

We follow the teachings or beliefs of a ruler who has long since died.

Laboring under illusion

We work under a false perception or misbelief.

Can't you see, we live a false reality

The reality we experience is untrue, and it's important to recognize it.

Set in motion long long ago

Our current situation was set in motion a very long time ago.

Shed the veil and embrace the truth

We should remove the illusion and accept the truth.


This is nothing

Emphasizing the insignificance of our existence.

We are nothing

We, as individuals, are nothing in the grand scheme of things.

None of this matters

Nothing in our lives holds any real importance.


Open your eyes and see

An urging to open one's eyes and perceive the reality.

Hopes and dreams are fantasy

Aspirations and fantasies are not grounded in reality.

Try as you may, there is no straying from this path

Efforts to deviate from our destined path are futile.


This is nothing

Reiteration of the insignificance of our existence.

We are nothing

We, as individuals, are still insignificant in the larger context.

None of this matters

Reiteration that nothing in our lives truly matters.


It must be so easy

Expressing the perception that living in falsehood is easier.

To live in the lies

This refers to the comfort found in living a deceptive life.

This comforting illusion

Describing the false sense of security as a disguise.

Captivity in disguise

Being trapped in a deceptive facade.


So forsake all your gods

Abandoning false beliefs and ideologies.

Their light has grown dim

The influence of these beliefs is fading.

Stoke the flames and burn this

Encouraging the destruction of the current flawed world.

Burn this world to the ground

A call to burn down the existing flawed reality.


Amongst the ashes you'll see

After the destruction, a new truth will be revealed.

Our infernal destiny

The destiny that emerges from the ashes is depicted as infernal.

Unholy light has shown us

An unholy light has revealed the genuine nature of mortality.

True mortality

Recognizing the true and inevitable end of life.
