The Lotus
Journey Through Shadows: The Lotus Unveiled
Lyrics
Take the sight of the dawn for all the sky it shines
Appreciating the beauty of dawn that covers the entire sky with its radiance.
Unveiling of another day upon my weary eyes
Welcoming a new day with tired eyes, suggesting weariness.
We'll hunt 'til the falling of night
Expressing determination to hunt until nightfall.
So long as spear is sharp and antlers break within my bite
Commitment to the hunt, as long as weapons are sharp and prey is abundant.
Fall to the ancient floor and sleep forever more
Falling to the ground and entering eternal sleep.
Follow the sun before we're fighting for a way back
Advocating following the sun, even if it means facing challenges to find the way back.
What is this light? Will we make it back alive?
Raising questions about the unknown light and the possibility of survival.
A pale disguise of evil circles us in sacred doors
Noticing a deceptive or ominous presence around, possibly in sacred places.
Follow the pine, pay no attention to the spirits of the night
Guidance to follow the pine, ignoring spirits of the night.
Follow the pine, pay no attention to the ghost that follows every time
Reiterating the advice to follow the pine, avoiding attention to persistent ghosts.
I walk among the smoke left breathing iron lung
Walking through a smoky environment, possibly with a sense of hardship.
Remember what your father said of a haunted way and animus
Recalling a warning from one's father about a haunted path and animosity.
That dances on the wreathes of the dead
Describing a dance or manifestation on the remains of the deceased.
Fall of day brings the strangest of sights to my wandering eyes
Noticing strange sights as the day comes to an end.
Save this life, in the hands of this nightmare we'll keep up the fight
Pledging to endure a nightmarish situation and continue the struggle for life.
Speak to the phantom all around us to the mass of all the moonless shade alive
Communicating with unseen entities in the moonless shadows.
Oh the phantom he will keep us until the skeleton is broken, bare and dry within the pine
Believing in the protection of a phantom until the skeletal essence is exposed within the pine.
We are just lost and young in love
Expressing a state of being lost and youthful in love.
We never meant to see a sleeping curse come back to life
Reflecting on an unintended encounter with a reawakened curse.
We are so lost and young in love
Reiterating the feeling of being lost and youthful in love.
But we'll never let you take this life for the sake of night
Asserting the determination to protect life against the threat of night.
We'll fight a fading light
Committing to fight against a fading light, possibly symbolic of impending challenges or dangers.
