Aurae Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How could you begin to intrude
This wild you try to claim
Will be the end of you
Why can't you see?
Made to defend with my life
You are the threat
I'll see to it that you are dealt with
Born to protect this place
And the beauty with in it
Why aren't these times easier
Vast monuments to men ablaze
Who can predict
What nightmare will come to surface next?
Living on the edge
I can't stand it
I won't give up
You are the threat
I'll see to it that you are dealt with
Born to protect this place
And the beauty with in it
This is it
You've done it
I'll be sure
To walk on your grave
I won't give up
You are the threat
I'll see to it that you are dealt with
Born to protect this place
And the beauty with in it
The lyrics to Aurae's song Sanctuary depict a fierce defense of one's own domain. The singer of the song is steadfast in their protection of their space, warning anyone who dares to intrude that they do so at their own peril. The singer sings, "Complete within my domain, how could you begin to intrude? This wild you try to claim will be the end of you." The use of the word "wild" suggests that the space being defended is not only physical, but perhaps spiritual or emotional as well. The singer is willing to defend this space with their life, as they sing, "Made to defend with my life, I won't give up."
The second half of the song shifts slightly, with the singer reflecting on the state of the world outside of their sanctuary. There is a sense of turmoil, with "vast monuments to men ablaze" and the constant threat of an unpredictable nightmare. The singer is "living on the edge" and cannot stand it, but they remain committed to protecting their space and the beauty within it. The song ends with a clear threat to anyone who would dare invade the sanctuary, with the singer promising to "be sure to walk on your grave."
Overall, the lyrics to Sanctuary are a passionate defense of one's personal space and the values contained within it. The singer is defiant and unyielding, unwilling to compromise their sanctuary for anything or anyone.
