Visions
Addikth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Past and present are completely intertwined
I felt confused and overwhelmed
There is now meaning behind everything
There is now reason for every random overlap
Neverminded to be in the dark
Implicit presence defocuses the gaze
Phantom figures emerge in the haze
Inaudible voices telling their secrets
Unseen scapes coming up to my sight
Gotta get away from this tribulation
Voices calling me
Darkness chasing me Should I be deaf, should I be blind?
How to retrieve salvation?
Only ashes know what it means
To be burned to the ground
We will stay in the shadows
We'll stay with the wind
We’ll stay far away from this
Shadows
Deepen, thicken, darken
Crawling
Closer, quieter whisper
Driving insane
Never minded to be exiled
Never minded to be on my own
Alienation becomes my decease
Outer world has ceased to exist
Inaudible voices telling their secrets
Unseen scapes coming up to my sight
Only ashes know what it means
To be burned to the ground
We will stay in the shadows
We’ll stay with the wind
We'll stay far from this
We are farther from this than the sky from the earth
We are farther from this than death from rebirth
The lyrics of Addikth's song "Visions" convey a sense of confusion, overwhelm, and a longing for escape. The opening lines, "Hard to say when it started, past and present are completely intertwined, I felt confused and overwhelmed," suggest a blurred line between past and present experiences, leaving the singer feeling disoriented and unsure.
As the lyrics progress, there is a shift towards finding meaning in everything and a sense of purpose behind seemingly random occurrences. The lines, "There is now meaning behind everything, there is now reason for every random overlap," imply a newfound understanding or perspective on the world around them.
The theme of isolation and longing for respite becomes evident in lines like, "Gotta get away from this tribulation, voices calling me, darkness chasing me, should I be deaf, should I be blind? How to retrieve salvation?" Here, the singer feels trapped and chased by darkness, seeking a way to find solace and salvation.
The repetition of the lines, "Only ashes know what it means to be burned to the ground, we will stay in the shadows, we'll stay with the wind," suggests a desire to remain hidden and disconnected from the troubles of the world. The use of imagery such as shadows and the wind further adds to the atmosphere of isolation and a yearning for escape.
In the final lines, "We are farther from this than the sky from the earth, we are farther from this than death from rebirth," the singer emphasizes their emotional distance from the struggles they are experiencing, implying a sense of detachment and longing for a fresh start.
Overall, "Visions" explores themes of confusion, isolation, and the desire for escape, while also hinting at the potential for finding meaning and understanding in one's experiences.
