Ashes
Blackcrowned Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As cold as sites of ancient fires
Like hell
My mind is burning with recollections of great days
My spirit's just the fierce force of northern gales
It seeks to break away like hell
The flame within my soul is flaring up again
Strength is my nature firm will to win has been collected
I feel approach of last and fatal battle
The sky is lightened with queer crimson dashes
I will pour out my hate and threaten
My foes my wrath my hate will turn them into ashes
The shadows gather round and
Fill my soul with gloom
They never would compound
So I accept my doom
The lyrics to Blackcrowned's song Ashes paint a picture of a tortured soul, one that is consumed by the memories of past triumphs and glories. The opening line, "cold is my yell / as cold as sites of ancient fires / like hell," depicts the singer's internal turmoil and pain. The reference to ancient fires conjures up images of long-extinguished flames, hinting at the singer's fading strength and fading spirit. However, the words "like hell" serve as a reminder that the singer is still capable of fierce intensity.
The second verse reveals that the singer's determination has been reignited. The words "the flame within my soul is flaring up again / there's no more doubt in my heart no chains" indicate that the singer has conquered their doubts and fears, freeing themselves from the shackles that once held them back. The phrase "my spirit's just the fierce force of northern gales" is particularly evocative, suggesting an unrelenting force that is not easily tamed.
The final verse is perhaps the most striking, as it depicts the approach of some sort of final battle. The singer's hatred and rage are brought to the forefront, and they vow to turn their foes into ashes. The line "the sky is lightened with queer crimson dashes" suggests a world on the brink of destruction, one that is consumed by violence and chaos. The final image of the shadows gathering around only serves to underline the singer's sense of resignation and acceptance of their inevitable fate.
