Sweet Surrender
Beyon-D-Lusion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(you) play the game of life
Till you go undone
But it feels vain again

(you) gamble with your life
Till it's undone
But it feels vain again
Do never plead, she would let you beg
Do never shriek, she would never hear
Do never keep, she will have you share
Do never weep, she would never care

No light, no air to live in
You nestle into your own hell
No time, no space to live in
You fondle every ache

(you) play the game of life
Till you go undone
But it feels vain again

(you) gamble with your life
Till it's undone
But it feels vain again

How come it feels like there's somebody else inside
Moralizing
How come it feels like there's somebody else

For i can feel it
Glows below
All i need now is to feel it
Grows

Some light, some air to live in
Why nestling into your own hell?




Some time, some space to live in
And caressing every ache?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Sweet Surrender" by Beyon-D-Lusion is a portrayal of a person who has been playing the game of life until exhaustion, believing that something will come out of it, but it never does. The first stanza gives two pictures of how the person plays the game of life, which is a gamble and for them to continue, they have to keep going until they are undone. The following stanza intensifies this idea by showing the futility of the person's actions. The lines, "No light, no air to live in/You nestle into your own hell/No time, no space to live in/You fondle every ache," describes the isolation and pain that the person feels. The repetition of "But it feels vain again" is a reminder that this cycle is never-ending.


The third stanza changes from describing the situation to addressing the person. The lines, "Do never plead, she would let you beg/Do never shriek, she would never hear/Do never keep, she will have you share/Do never weep, she would never care," speaks of the person's futility to change their situation. It seems as though the person is talking to someone who has the potential to help them. However, they know that they will never receive any assistance.


The fourth stanza shows a glimmer of hope. The lines, "Some light, some air to live in/Why nestling into your own hell?/Some time, some space to live in/And caressing every ache?" encourages the person to seek out solutions to their problems. The ending lines, "For I can feel it/Glows below/All I need now is to feel it/Grows," could allude to the person's spirit, and how they need to nurture it to move forward.


Line by Line Meaning

(you) play the game of life
Engage in the pursuits of life


Till you go undone
Until it leads to your demise


But it feels vain again
But the effort seems pointless and unrewarding


(you) gamble with your life
Take risks with your life


Till it's undone
Until it leads to your destruction


Do never plead, she would let you beg
Never ask for mercy as you will only receive humiliation


Do never shriek, she would never hear
Screaming for help is futile, it falls on deaf ears


Do never keep, she will have you share
Do not withhold anything as she demands that you share


Do never weep, she would never care
Crying out of sadness won't make a difference because she doesn't care


No light, no air to live in
A state of darkness and suffocation


You nestle into your own hell
Seeking comfort in misery


No time, no space to live in
A feeling of being constrained and suffocated


You fondle every ache
You become fixated on your every pain


How come it feels like there's somebody else inside
Feeling like there's another person controlling you


Moralizing
Constantly being judged and scrutinized


How come it feels like there's somebody else
Feeling like there's another being influencing you


For i can feel it
Acknowledging the presence of the external force


Glows below
A sense of power emanating from within


All i need now is to feel it
The desire to fully embrace this power


Grows
The power continues to expand and strengthen within


Some light, some air to live in
A desire for relief from the suffocating darkness


Why nestling into your own hell?
Questioning the decision to find comfort in misery


Some time, some space to live in
Yearning for freedom and breathing room


And caressing every ache?
Asking why one would be fixated on pain and suffering

I remember setting this as my Myspace profile song 10+ years ago. The singer reminds me a bit of Anneke Van Giersbergen. And that's a good thing! I'm sad to see they split up, though.
