Crucifer
Journey of Burden: Unraveling the Depths of Crucifer's Meaning
Lyrics
I see you Crucifer on the road
I observe you, Crucifer, on the journey
I see you bent with a wooden cross
I see you bowed down carrying a wooden cross
your tired back, all the lies upon
Your weary back bears the weight of deceit and falsehoods
The crowes at the church are very loud
The crows at the church are noisy
the bell is chiming, there's no other sound
The bell tolls, drowning out other sounds
at the end of the climb you’re slowin’ down
As you reach the end of the ascent, you're slowing down
This is hell, Crucifer
This situation is a form of hell for you, Crucifer
watch your step
Be cautious, watch your steps
hold the line on your path
Stay determined on your chosen path
keep that cross, it's so heavy
Continue carrying the heavy cross
Why do you have to carry on your own
Questioning why you bear the symbol of others' faults
the bloody sign of other people's fault?
Wondering why your companions sing and lament
Why do the friends of yours sing and moan?
(Repeated theme of questioning the burden)
The weight of all the world is on your back
The burden on your back symbolizes the weight of the world
pain and sorrow fill up your sack
Pain and sorrow fill your sack or life experiences
I see you walking only dressed in black
Observing you walking, clad in black
This is hell, Crucifer
Reiterating the hellish nature of your situation, Crucifer
watch your step
Cautioning you to be vigilant and careful
hold the line on your path
Urging you to stay true to your chosen path
keep that cross, it's so heavy
Continue carrying the burdensome cross
You’ve got something I don't understand
Expressing confusion about something you possess
can you explain the meaning of your act?
Asking for an explanation of the meaning behind your actions
What’s that crown of thorns upon your head?
Questioning the significance of the crown of thorns on your head
Is it in your book of fairy tales
Suggesting skepticism about religious stories
the bloody story written too late?
Reflecting on a late and bloody narrative
And I know that god is dead
Asserting a belief in the absence of God
can you explain life after death?
Posing a question about the existence of life after death
