Delusion
Artrosis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the streams of rain
Your love is imprisoned
It's got only one queen
Golden heart
You laid at its feet
Had cracked before you understood
It will destroy you
With each gesture
It will destroy you
With each word
Bewitched by its melody
You drink off sounds
Deluded by a failure
You tempt fortune
From joy to suffering - short way
You'll defeat it
Though you know the end
The song "Delusion" by Artrosis is a hauntingly beautiful piece that paints a picture of a powerless lover, captivated by the queen of love. The lyrics are reminiscent of a tale from an era long gone, describing a person's downfall at the hands of their beloved. The imagery of an old stairway and streams of rain evoke feelings of gloom and despair. The singer is at the mercy of their love, which has ensnared them like a wild animal. The golden heart they once laid at its feet is now cracked beyond repair.
The lines "With each step, with each gesture, it will destroy you. With each word, bewitched by its melody, you drink off sounds" underline the idea that the person's love is cruel and tyrannical. The individual is trapped in a cycle of delusion, unable to escape the clutches of their obsession. The last line, "You'll defeat it, though you know the end," implies that the singer is aware of their fate but is willing to face it head-on. The song leaves a lasting impression on the listener, and the emotions expressed are something everyone can resonate with.
Line by Line Meaning
In the old stairway
Starting from a time long gone
In the streams of rain
During the rainy weather
Your love is imprisoned
Your love is trapped
It's got only one queen
Your love is loyal to one person
Golden heart
Your kind heart
You laid at its feet
You gave your heart to your love
Had cracked before you understood
Your heart broke before you realized it
It will destroy you
Your love will bring you down
With each step
Each move you make
With each gesture
Any move you make
With each word
Every word you speak
Bewitched by its melody
You are enchanted by its sound
You drink off sounds
You soak in sounds
Deluded by a failure
Fooled by a loss
You tempt fortune
You take risks
From joy to suffering - short way
From happiness to sadness - brief journey
You'll defeat it
You will overcome your love
Though you know the end
Even though you are aware of the outcome
