Into the Light
Bandoso Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
wherein flowed my only breath
found myself squeezed in between fights
of eternal battle, angels and demons
releasing my mind
off cuffing dogma
that slowly
enligthens my eyes
into the light, lost and unified
into the light, revealing the truth
into the light, lost and unified
unifying my soul with Thy light
unifying my soul with Thy light
unifying my soul with Thy light
unifying my soul with Thy light
*back to Reff
consciousness,
silence,
illumination,
and peace
The lyrics to Bandoso's song "Into the Light" are filled with images and ideas of enlightenment, inner conflict and unity. The first verse describes a moment of introspection on a cold, silent night. The singer is in the middle of an "eternal battle" between angels and demons, and is trying to break free from religious dogma that has been holding them back. The release of these mental chains allows them to see more clearly, as they are "enlightened" by the truth that is revealed to them by the light.
The chorus of the song is a repetition of the phrase "Into the light", which serves to reinforce the theme of illumination and clarity. The singer is lost, but they are also unified by the experience of enlightenment, which has "unified their soul with Thy light". The use of "Thy" in this context implies a divine presence or higher power that has guided the singer towards this moment of clarity and unity.
The final line of the song is a summation of the feelings that come with enlightenment: consciousness, silence, illumination and peace. These are all states of being that one might strive towards through spiritual practice, but they are also elusive and difficult to attain. The song suggests that by shedding preconceptions and embracing the truth, one can take a step towards finding these states of being.
