"Welcome to this world
Transformation supreme
I am sleepless from the power in my veins

My past is gone
Incantation serene
Entering the threshold of a pure disease

These Midnight Dreams
Stolen from god
Just to make you believe
In these Midnight Dreams

No longer pain
Damnation in me
My body fits the guise of infamy
Cleanse myself within
Discard this bitter skin

you here at my side
Look into these lupine eyes
It can't be so far away
Nothing can keep me chained

Nothing left to hide
Alienation complete
What I am is all I'll ever need

The time is short
Humans are weak
Breaking down the doors inside of me"

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Solitude Aeturnus's song "Midnight Dreams" are a deeply introspective and almost spiritual reflection on the nature of personal transformation and the power of the self. The singer of the lyrics opens by welcoming the listener to a transformed world, a place where they have been changed utterly and completely - even their sense of time has been lost, as they note that they are "sleepless from the power in my veins." The singer goes on to reflect on the purity of their transformation, describing it as an "incantation serene" and likening it to a disease. In this sense, it seems that the act of transformation is something they have actively sought out - perhaps even at a great personal cost - in order to cleanse themselves of their former identity or limitations.
