Bonecarver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Another bitter day hidden in the shadows.
Four grey walls take me away from reality.
Gloomy thoughts and raw memories cloud my mind.
The rain in my window reminds me of what we are made of.
My demons push me into the abyss.
Surrounded by strangers whose stories I know better than myself.
The flame of hope is fading. I am a faded memory in their rotten minds that will soon
They were always dead for me. But it's time for their soul to rest in peace.
This is the day when the sheep tears the wolf apart, The squid strangles the shark And the
blossoms poison the swarms.
I will wear black forever and never be eclipsed again.
Now I walk towards the dark loneliness.
I'm addicted to that sweet feeling.
There is no turning back, there is no forgiveness.
A bullet pierces your head breaking through your memories turned to blood that slowly spill
on
the ground where I can now see my cold and pale reflection.
The lyrics of "Revolver" by Bonecarver are about a person who is consumed by emptiness and feels isolated and detached from reality. The four grey walls represent an enclosure in which the person is trapped, cut off from the world and forced to confront their gloomy thoughts and raw memories. The rain on the window is a metaphor for the transience of life, reminding the person of their own mortality and impermanence. The demons represent the dark thoughts and feelings that are pushing the person towards the abyss of despair and hopelessness. The strangers symbolize the alienation and disconnection that the person feels in a world where they feel they don't belong. The complete verse, "This is the day when the sheep tears the wolf apart, The squid strangles the shark And the blossoms poison the swarms," represents the idea of a reversal of roles and a shift in power, where the weak overcome the strong.
The final verse takes a disturbing turn, as the person contemplates taking their own life with a revolver. The line "A bullet pierces your head" could be interpreted both as a literal event and as a metaphorical one, representing the person's surrender to their depressive thoughts and emotions. The final image of "cold and pale reflection" emphasizes the finality of the decision and the irreversibility of the consequences. The song is a bleak exploration of themes such as depression, isolation, and suicide, with a powerful and haunting message that challenges the listener to face their own inner demons.
