From the Ones Inside
Echoes of Inner Shadows: Lars Ekengren's Melancholic Symphony
Lyrics
This is from the ones inside
This is a perspective shared by individuals from within a particular group or experience.
They come with the darkness and leaves none aside
The entities referenced arrive in darkness, affecting everyone without exception.
This is from the ones within
Refers again to those inside, expressing a desire for solace with a damaged musical instrument (broken violin).
They beg for a heart's-ease with a broken violin
Individuals within seek comfort, symbolized by a heart's-ease, amidst their struggles represented by the broken violin.
Through the fog I hear them cry
The speaker hears the internal struggles amid obscurity and responds to their cries.
They tear, they hurt, they lure, they lie
Describes the inner turmoil—tearing, hurting, luring, and lying.
Night crawling, I'm falling
Imagery of nightfall and descent, accompanied by fear and loneliness.
Dark only, scared, lonely
Highlights the overwhelming darkness and fear during the night.
Heart stumbling, I'm crumbling
Expresses emotional turmoil, with the heart stumbling and crumbling.
A thin, red line, I need more time
Introduces a metaphorical thin, red line, indicating a need for more time to overcome challenges.
This is from the ones within
Reiterates the perspective from within, inviting emotional release with the arrival of rain.
Bring on the driving rain, let the crying begin
Welcomes the emotional release symbolized by driving rain and the commencement of crying.
And I will lay my rifles down
Expresses a willingness to disarm and face consequences, waiting for judgment (firing squad).
And wait for the firing squad to slowly come around
Awaits the consequences with the firing squad slowly approaching.
Through the fog I heard you pray
The speaker hears prayers through the fog, possibly from another individual.
To send the monsters on their way
The prayer is directed towards dispelling inner demons or challenges.
Night crawling...
Continuation of the night crawling theme, emphasizing persistent challenges.
