Of Energy – Singularity
TesseracT Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No, don't
Give me your hand, I can save you from the fall
Go, I'm in your shadow
Run until your feet are aching to the bone

I see you looking back at me
As this might be the end of me
Misfortune in my history, and even more awaiting me
Tired of such controversies
Sometimes I long for sweet release
I've found a place that welcomes me
A greener grass and bluer sea
Free from all the sodden grief
No clenching fists, no gritted teeth
I feel the freedom as I breathe
A nature and its calm relief

It all comes to life
Right before your eyes

And I wander through ideals
Reflecting all I know and how it falls into focus
It seems my progression lays behind this wall
So I plant a seed, and lead erosion to the wall
And lead erosion to it all

And I wander through ideals
Reflecting all I know and how it falls

And I'll be here, looking for purpose in the sun
And I'll be ever here

The horizon bears such a beauty
We'll never know how much we can't see
Your atheist terse solemnity
It bruises me
It bruises me
It bruises me
It bruises me

No, don't
Give me your hand, I can save you from the fall
Go, I'm in your shadow
Run until your feet are aching to the bone

And it all comes to life
Why do I still feel dead inside?

So I plant a seed, and lead erosion to the wall
So I plant a seed, and lead erosion to

I see you looking back at me
As this might be the end of me
Misfortune in my history, and even more awaiting me
Tired of such controversies
Sometimes I long for sweet release
I've found a place that welcomes me
A greener grass and bluer sea
Free from all the sodden grief
No clenching fists, no gritted teeth
I feel the freedom as I breathe
A nature and its calm relief

Overall Meaning

The song "Of Energy – Singularity" by TesseracT talks about a journey towards finding inner peace and purpose. The first stanza seems to depict someone offering help to save the singer from falling. However, the singer wants to be in the shadows and run until their feet hurt. The second stanza talks about finding a place that welcomes the singer, a place with a greener grass and bluer sea, where they are free from all the sorrows and grief. This place gives them a sense of calm and freedom.


The chorus seems to reflect the idea that life comes to life right before our eyes. However, the singer still feels dead inside. They plant a seed and lead erosion to the wall so that they could find a purpose. The third and final stanza talks about the horizon's beauty and how much we miss due to our limited perception. The last line of the song, "It bruises me", could refer to a feeling of pain resulting from our inability to see beyond the physical realm.

all comes to life.
Right before your eyes.

And I wander through ideals,
Reflecting all I know and how it falls into focus.
It seems my progression lays behind this wall.
So I plant a seed, and lead erosion to the wall.
And lead erosion to it all.

And I wander through ideals,
Reflecting all I know and how it falls...

And I'll be here, looking for purpose in the sun.
And I'll be ever here.

The horizon bears such a beauty.
We'll never know how much we can't see.
Your atheist terse solemnity.
It bruises me.
It bruises me.
It bruises me.
It bruises me.

No, don't.
Give me your hand, I can save you from the fall.
Go, I'm in your shadow.
Run until your feet are aching to the bone.

And it all comes to life.
Why do I still feel... dead inside?

So I plant a seed, and lead erosion to the wall.
So I plant a seed, and lead erosion to...

I see you looking back at me.
As this might be the end of me.
Misfortune in my history, and even more awaiting me.
Tired of such controversies.
Sometimes I long for sweet release.
I've found a place that welcomes me.
A greener grass and bluer sea.
Free from all the sodden grief.
No clenching fists, no gritted teeth.
I feel the freedom as I breathe.
A nature and its calm relief.

People like to crap on vocalists all the time, I dare anyone to this creative with prog metal. Ash is among the best vocalists of this generation.

MJ Lewis

Sort yourselves out people, TesseracT has just released the best album of recent years by a mile, and this video is spellbinding, I'm sure they're REALLY sorry that the video doesn't consist of them playing the song in a warehouse...A piece of art, for a piece of art

Demosthenes Locke

I want to see a sequel to this!!! one of the best music video of the year... nice to see something with an edge for a change, and some real atmosphere... not the usual band members prancing around + light flares. Make more like this!

1:15 - 3:00 That riff is awesome.  Really complements the singing well

Alexis T

I want to express my lor the new album. TesseracT did something unexpected by their fans. A softer side of the band. Gorgeous. Simply gorgeous.
