Behold the Face of Death
Arkangel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When slain bodies rot in the wake of progress,
to write upon the forehead of the wicked race.
Behold the face of death,
behold the face of man,
behold the face of death,
killing with a smile.
Behold the face of death,
behold the face of man,
behold the face of death,
slayer of it all.
Trapped in the game of the enemy,
I see the devil in his eyes,
dealer of the apocalypse.
Selling the end,
sealing our fate.
Redeeming back what you remember,
redeeming back what you remember.
Redemption through final extinction.
Our skin will burn as we have burned in the fire of atonement
The lyrics to Arkangel's song "Behold the Face of Death" convey the brutal reality of violence and death. The first line of the song, "I deep my fingers into a pool of blood," signifies the singer's willingness to face the horrors of violence and confront the wickedness of humanity. The second line, "When slain bodies rot in the wake of progress," suggests that progress cannot always be achieved without sacrifice and loss. The singer aims to "write upon the forehead of the wicked race" to expose those who are responsible for causing harm and promoting violence.
The chorus, "Behold the face of death, killing with a smile" emphasizes the sinister nature of those who are responsible for death and destruction. The singer points out that such individuals are capable of killing with a smile, highlighting the extent of their cruelty. "Slayer of it all" suggests that such individuals are responsible for causing damage not only to people but the world around them.
The final part of the song describes the singer being "trapped in the game of the enemy" and encountering the devil himself. The singer sees that the enemy is the "dealer of the apocalypse" and is responsible for "selling the end" and "sealing our fate." The lyrics suggest that there is no redemption for the wicked and that the only way forward is through final extinction.
