Spirit's Eclipse
Acrimonious Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I seal Thee -inside of me- in utmost secrecy
So to ruin my fertile inner grounds with oil
Approach me Lord, expand all over me and feed my starving mouth with Gehinnom soil

Come sleep Thou King (near the banks)
By the river of my tears
Grant me the transformative nectar of transgression
Allow me God to arise and prostrate my filthy human will
Until I'm ashes... it is ashes

Divine Pyosis, harmful force
Abominable womb, yet untouched source
Where the rays of life do not reach
Egoless triumph, Black Sun's Dawn
The Spirit's Eclipse

I'm sealed by Thee to the utmost degree of humility
For you've blessed my sterile grounds-serpent coiled
Allow me Lord to sing for Thee
And feed my starving mouth with the stars of Nuit.

Crowned Antigenesis, hellish course
Moist and putrid womb, key to death's doors
Where Thine blaze enwines me in deserts bleak
Rise twelve-winged angel and force all living flee...
Divine Pyosis, harmful force
Abominable womb, yet untouched source
Where the rays of life do not reach




Egoless triumph, Black Sun Dawns
The Spirit's Eclipse

Overall Meaning

In Acrimonious's song "Spirit's Eclipse", the lyrics depict a deeply intimate and sinister relationship between the singer and a higher power, possibly a deity or a force of darkness. The opening lines "I seal Thee -inside of me- in utmost secrecy" signify a pact or agreement with this higher power that the singer has sworn to keep concealed from the rest of the world. The line "So to ruin my fertile inner grounds with oil" denotes a dark desire to corrupt and destroy oneself from within, in order to become closer to this force of darkness.


The second stanza reveals the singer calling out to this higher power, asking it to grant them "the transformative nectar of transgression" and to consume them completely. The line "Until I'm ashes... it is ashes" suggests a willingness to completely surrender oneself to this force, regardless of the cost. The following stanzas further emphasize the destructive nature of this relationship, with the lines "Divine Pyosis, harmful force / Abominable womb, yet untouched source / Where the rays of life do not reach" painting a picture of a dark, foreboding place that is at once alluring and terrifying.
