Deliverance
Cadaver Inc. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Extracting placidity
Absorbing the rage
The roads to obscurity
Are sordid from putrid taste

Exhuming iniquity
The eraser of grace
Mounting in purity

Like fountains of primal hate

A breath of satisfaction in the glory of pain
The corroding rain makes fractions
In the solvent ways of death

The laughter joins the vastness
...Ablaze the hurricane

Discordant strings repowered
... Refuels our primal faith...

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Cadaver Inc.'s song Deliverance reflect a sense of extracting serenity and absorbing the anger that comes with it. The 'roads to obscurity' are described as being sordid from putrid taste, an indication of the dark path that the song is taking. The lyrics then delve deeper into the theme of sin and atonement, highlighted by the line 'Exhuming iniquity - The eraser of grace'. The idea of mounting in purity like fountains of primal hate symbolises the journey towards redemption from sin.

The final stanza of the song is where the true meaning of the lyrics comes together, and it is here that the singer reflects on the satisfaction of pain. The corrosive rain, representative of the pain, makes fractions in the solvent ways of death, suggesting that every experience, no matter how negative, has the potential to dissolve the seemingly impervious elements of life. In the face of the hurricane, the singer takes comfort in the discordant strings, and the primal faith that they refuel, signalling a sense of hope amidst the chaos.
