Minds of Men
Aviv Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hold the torch, burn it out,
Spread your dirt, all around,
Finding our fears are inside out
You're just the string from the puppets mouth

It's a new world order
They till and they fall
The pieces of ember, that kill us all,
In minds of men, there is no light
It's hard to breath, in the pitch black night

This is all on your head
Keep in mind all you've said,
Paying debts till you're dead,
This freeing life costs its rent,

Whoa Oh Oh Oh
Whoa Oh Oh Oh

Lift em up, for a life,
Bright red roads,
We row all night, Come lets go,
Change again, This skin is old,
And weak are men

It's a new world order
They till and they fall
The pieces of ember, that kill us all,
In minds of men, there is no light
It's hard to breath, in the pitch black night

It's a new world order
They till and they fall
The pieces of ember, that kill us all,




In minds of men, there is no light
It's hard to breath, in the pitch black night

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Aviv's song "Minds of Men" seem to paint a picture of a dystopian world ruled by a sinister force that manipulates individuals to participate in the destruction of themselves and the world around them. The first stanza talks about spreading dirt and finding fear inside out, possibly indicating that the manipulation is done through lies and fear-mongering. The second stanza mentions the new world order, the pieces of ember that kill us all, and the darkness that pervades the minds of men, painting a bleak picture of the state of the world. The final stanza talks about lifting up for life, indicating there may still be hope for humanity to shake off the shackles of the oppressive force and change their fate.


The song seems to criticize the current political and societal climate, where people are often led to blindly follow the narrative of those in power, even if it goes against their own interests. It highlights the need for individuals to break out of their apathy and stand up against those who seek to exploit them.
