Arc-turus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cold and waste the landscape lay
Then a hale of wind.
Hither-whirling, thither-swirling,
Spin the fog and spin the mist
Still we walked on through woods and wintry gray,
Home through woods where winter lay
(Waiting for a change in the weather.
Waiting for a shift in the air.
Could we get there together, ever?
Waiting for our late, late return)
Through the woods.
Home through the woods where winter lay
The lyrics of Arc-turus's Wintry Grey paint a vivid picture of a desolate wintry landscape through the lens of the singer's journey through it. The first stanza describes a frozen and barren landscape where streams are frozen solid and the air is thick with gray vapors. The line "Then a hale of wind" suggests a sudden burst of wind that adds to the already harsh conditions. The second stanza then describes the singer's journey through this landscape where they continue to walk through woods shrouded in fog and mist. Despite the bleak scenery and challenging conditions, the singer seems to be on a mission to get home- which is where winter lay for them.
The lyrics of Wintry Grey evoke feelings of coldness, darkness, and isolation. The image of a frozen and barren landscape is a stark reminder of the harsh realities of winter. However, the singer's persistence in their journey and their desire to get home despite the obstacles they face can also be interpreted as a symbol of hope and resilience. The lines "Waiting for a change in the weather. Waiting for a shift in the air" also suggest something more optimistic- that change is possible and that there is a possibility of a brighter future.

The woods were frigid and cloaked in darkness.
