Dark World
Binary Division Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

fading dreams on the highway of hope
a chase of nightmares
out of this dystopian place
the stars are guiding my way
to infinity and the undefined depths of hell

a cold breeze of solitude
blowing thru my face
in this maze of thoughts
with nothing else left to say

chaos – all over the world
disorder – another netherworld
denial – you're useless shit
eternity – falling into the pit

enslaved world by a broken company
all the lies and the strict secrecy
there's no way in darkest times
they watch you, see you, follow you everywhere

dead cities rising in rain of fear
where the only bright are the signs of neon
I take my step into shades of buildings
in hope to survive just another day

It's time now to exceed myself
to overcome this world of pain
to realize the reality
this matrix gone insane

the mysterious bright moonlight
shining lightly on my face
trying to tell me something
that something's out of place

chaos – all over the world
disorder – another netherworld
denial – you're useless shit
eternity – falling into the pit

enslaved world by a broken company
all the lies and the strict secrecy
there's no way in darkest times
they watch you, see you, follow you everywhere

dead cities rising in rain of fear
where the only bright are the signs of neon




I take my step into shades of buildings
in hope to survive just another day

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Binary Division's song "Dark World" paint a bleak and despairing picture of a dystopian society, where dreams fade away and nightmares relentlessly chase the singer on an endless highway of hope. The lyrics describe a sense of overwhelming solitude as the character navigates through a maze of thoughts with nothing left to say. The world around them is chaotic and disordered, and they describe feeling useless and falling into an eternal pit of despair.


Despite the darkness surrounding them, the singer sees the stars as a beacon of hope, and they follow them towards infinity and the undefined depths of hell. The world in which they live is enslaved by a broken company, and there is no respite from the lies and strict secrecy that pervade it. The only bright spots are the neon signs that light up the dead cities rising up in a rain of fear. The singer takes each step forward, hoping to survive just one more day in this inhospitable environment.


As the song progresses, the singer realizes that it is time to exceed themselves, to overcome the world of pain that they inhabit, and to break free from the matrix gone insane. Even though it is a mysterious bright moonlight that illuminates their face, they sense that something is out of place. The chaos and disorder of the world around them have taken a toll, and they continue to face the darkness and uncertainty with courage against a backdrop of enslavement and fear.
