Death Valley
Embracing the Abyss: Soul Despair's Journey through Death Valley
Lyrics
Devoted to the breath of death
Committed or dedicated to facing mortality
Surrounding smoke, this valley so desolate
Describing a barren and empty valley filled with smoke
It contorts our soul
Causes distortion or twisting of the essence of our being
As I descend falling deeper in the void
Descending into a deeper emptiness or abyss
Form falls away, I see the truth unravel
Witnessing the unraveling of reality to reveal the truth
The emptiness, all I had ever known
Realization that emptiness was the predominant experience
The infinite now permeates my soul
Feeling the endless or boundless nature deeply within
Severing this hell in two
Trying to separate or break away from this hellish experience
Wondering where was the chance to bloom?
Questioning the missed opportunities for growth or flourishing
Pale sunlight pierces through this torment
Weak sunlight breaking through intense suffering
Hollow night reflects abhorrence
The dark, empty night reflects intense hatred or repulsion
Fireside to make amends
Seeking reconciliation or resolution by a fireside
Drifting shine bury the pain again
Temporary distractions to bury the pain once more
All this loss must have a home
Believing that all the grief and sorrow has a place to belong
Finding paths out of my bones
Seeking a way to escape or move beyond personal suffering
My soul longs for eternal rest
Desire for eternal peace or tranquility for the soul
Devoted to shaking hands with death
Committed to embracing mortality, possibly accepting its inevitability
Surrounding smoke, this valley so desolate
Reiteration of the desolation in the smoke-filled valley
Severing this hell in two
Attempting to break free from the tormenting experience
Obliterate any chance to bloom
Destroying any possibility for growth or flourishing
Pale sunlight pierces through this torment
Feeble sunlight piercing through immense suffering once more
Hollow night reflects abhorrence
The night reflecting intense disgust or hatred
Fireside to make amends
Seeking resolution or reconciliation by a fireside (repeated imagery)
Drifting shine bury the pain again
Using distractions to bury the pain yet again (repeated imagery)
The shadow of myself
Feeling disconnected or detached from one's own identity
Relinquish from this hell
Seeking liberation from the torment or suffering
