Darkness
Affective Insanity Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I opened my eyes
When the rain started to fall
Someone is calling my name
But nobody is out there
My heart is pumping floods of blood
Through my veins, through my body

Don't know where I am
The air is cold
And my breath is taken away
Do you know the voices
That called my name?

The streets are empty and I'm going blind
From staring at the horizon
As I look in a window
I see your eyes staring back at me

You are the reason of this tragedy
Hope you're feeling happy now

Drowning slowly
With my face to the ground
Take my hand
And lead me out of the darkness





Hope I have the strength to fight on
To fight on this battle

Line by Line Meaning

I opened my eyes
I became alert


When the rain started to fall
At the onset of rainfall


Someone is calling my name
A voice is uttering my name


But nobody is out there
No one is in sight


My heart is pumping floods of blood
My heart is beating rapidly


Through my veins, through my body
In my entire being


Don't know where I am
Unaware of my current location


The air is cold
The atmosphere is chilly


And my breath is taken away
I'm breathless


Do you know the voices
Are you conscious of the sounds?


That called my name?
That spoke my name?


The streets are empty and I'm going blind
The roads lack people and I'm losing sight


From staring at the horizon
After gazing at the skyline


As I look in a window
Upon peering through a window


I see your eyes staring back at me
I observe your eyes fixed on mine


You are the reason of this tragedy
You are the cause of this calamity


Hope you're feeling happy now
I wish you are happy


Drowning slowly
Gradually getting overwhelmed


With my face to the ground
Looking down at the soil


Take my hand
Hold my hand


And lead me out of the darkness
Guide me away from obscurity


Hope I have the strength to fight on
I aspire to have the vigor to persevere


To fight on this battle
To continue with this struggle
