Lyrics

As the snow falls

Reference to the beginning of a transformative event symbolized by snowfall.

The empty forest gets filled with sorrow

The once barren forest now carries a sense of sadness with the arrival of change.

As life gets put to rest

Life undergoes a cessation, a metaphorical death.

By the wind of chaos

The chaotic force represented by the wind plays a role in this transformative process.

When light turns to dusk

The transition from daylight to evening, signaling a shift towards darkness.

The full moon lights the earth

The full moon, a symbol of change and mysticism, illuminates the earth.


I put the nails in my coffin

Symbolic act of self-inflicted harm or sacrifice, possibly metaphorical death.

For I am not dead

Contradiction highlighting a state of existence beyond physical death.

I am living eternal life

Claiming an existence beyond mortality, suggesting spiritual or eternal life.


Look into my eyes and see my burning mind

Inviting someone to understand the intensity of the speaker's thoughts through eye contact.

In these cold dark times

Describing a period of emotional and societal darkness.

Our lord will rise

Awaiting the rise of a powerful figure, potentially a deity or leader.


Vast forest of conjury

Imagery of a vast, magical forest representing mystical forces.

Put the unholy black angel in me

Incorporating dark elements within oneself, possibly symbolic of embracing darkness.

It will haunt us all eventually

Anticipating a collective confrontation with ominous forces.

But now its the snow, the wind, and me

Current focus on the snow, wind, and the speaker, elements of transformation.


I dance among the land

The speaker engages in a symbolic dance within the transformed landscape.

My heart turns to black

Emotional transformation, with the heart turning dark, possibly symbolizing negative change.

To my right, the devils hand

A dark force or influence represented by the devil's hand on the speaker's right side.

In this lonely night

Describing the setting of the speaker during a lonely night.


I put the nails in my coffin

Repetition of the symbolic act of self-inflicted harm or sacrifice.


As snow falls

Reiteration of the transformative impact of snowfall on the forest.

The empty forest gets filled with sorrow

Restating the emotional impact of the snow on the previously empty forest.

Life gets put to rest

Repeating the theme of life undergoing a cessation, influenced by chaotic forces.

By the wind of chaos

Reiteration of the role of chaos, this time in putting life to rest.

When light turns to dusk

Reiteration of the transition from light to dusk, signifying impending darkness.

The full moon lights the earth

Repetition of the symbolic illumination of the earth by the full moon.


I put the nails in my coffin

Repetition of the symbolic act of self-inflicted harm or sacrifice.

For I am not dead

Reiteration of the contradiction highlighting existence beyond physical death.

I'm living eternal life

Repeating the claim of living an eternal life beyond mortality.
