Back In Time
Attick Demons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the stars looked bright in that night
I fell asleep and dream
I've been drowned by the portal of time
Flying through the spiral of light
Travelling between space and time
Finally I had landed in a place
For me was no surprise
In the land of hopes and dreams
-Cradle of humankind
I'm back in time
Guided by the will, in the land of hopes and dreams
-To Atlantis I arrived
I'm not a stranger in this land
I've been here once before
I know every corner of this place
Every road I have to walk
The lyrics to Attick Demons's song Back in Time depict a dream-like sequence where the singer falls asleep and enters a portal of time, through which they travel between space and time. They eventually arrive in a place where they are not a stranger, as they have been there once before. The singer emphasizes their familiarity with the place, stating that they know every corner and road they have to walk. The land they are in is described as the cradle of humankind, possibly referring to the place where humanity originated, while the reference to Atlantis could be alluding to the mythological lost city that is believed to have suffered a catastrophic event and sunk into the ocean.
The song's theme of time-travel and the exploration of ancient lands is reminiscent of science-fiction and adventure genres. The lyrics inspire the listener to imagine a world where time is fluid and time-travel is possible, and to explore the mysteries and wonders of ancient civilizations. The song's rhythm and melody add to the dream-like quality, conveying a sense of wonder and euphoria. The chorus also serves to reinforce the sense of familiarity with the surroundings, as the singer repeatedly emphasizes being "back in time" and in the "land of hopes and dreams".
