Bonus Track
REIGN Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The ancient wound has a balm to soothe
The Burning Fever of untold truths
A forbidden doorway built for you
There's a place below where all are known
Fall down to untamed lies
Or conquer the rage inside

Rise now from lawless infernal dominion

For all the nights of hunger
Where the dawn was the dark in our hearts
We bring damnation
Lead the scourge from the earth to the stars
In servitude we breed terror

For all the time I've slumbered
For the warmth I'm denied in my scars
We bring damnation

For all who wander the eternal fields
Endless in number their crimes unsealed
Horrors in nameless graves

For those that dwell under the black knights spell




Twilight but a memory not yet stale
In darkness we shine forevermore

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Bonus Track by REIGN are quite cryptic yet thought-provoking. The opening line suggests that there is a potential remedy for an ancient and enduring wound. The next line implies that certain truths can be painful and cause a burning fever, but the balm can offer comfort. The following line talks about a forbidden doorway that has been custom-built for someone's arrival. The fourth line seems to indicate that a place exists beneath us where everyone's secrets are known.


The next lines juxtapose falling to untamed lies or conquering the rage inside. The phrase "lawless infernal dominion" evokes an image of a dark, demonic kingdom that the singer must escape. The lines "For all the nights of hunger/Where the dawn was the dark in our hearts/We bring damnation/Lead the scourge from the earth to the stars/In servitude, we breed terror" suggest the singer may want to unleash chaos and destruction upon the world, likely out of vengeance.


The song then talks about a group united in bringing "damnation" for reasons that remain unclear. There is a hint of regret in the lines "For all the time I've slumbered/For the warmth, I'm denied in my scars/We bring damnation." The final lines refer to different groups of people, some of whom seem to be in dark places. The imagery of darkness shining forevermore is intriguing, leaving the listener to wonder about the song's ultimate message.
