The Chosen Ones
Calmed By The Tides Of Rain Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This fight is pointless
Comes from depths of hell

Main battle isn′t lost
Which consists of pain and grief
We are the chosen ones
Fighting for a disbelief
Desperation
From me to you
From me to fuckin you

Look at their eyes
They have no hope

From me to fuckin you

We are the end
We are the chosen ones

So you should keep them in their weak shells

Desperation
From me to you
From me to fuckin you

Look at their eyes
They have no hope

From me to you
From me to fuckin you

Victims of torture
Necromechanical beings
Children of godless engineering

We
We must not fall
Just stand up to the end

Underestimating forces
Somatically reborned in every corner of this world

Now oceans beginning to burn

We are the end
We are the chosen ones

For us - now
For you - then

Yeaaah

For us - now
You are next





Corruption

Overall Meaning

The song "The Chosen Ones" by Calmed by the Tides of Rain portrays a sense of hopelessness and anguish within its lyrics. The opening lines of the song, "This fight is pointless, comes from depths of hell" suggest that the struggle the band is fighting for is futile and is resulting in a loss of hope. However, the main battle is not lost as it consists of pain and grief, which the chosen ones are fighting against despite the disbelief of others. The lyrics also mention feelings of desperation from one person to another, emphasizing the emotional state of the situation.


The song also talks about victims of torture and children of godless engineering who are reborn in every corner of the world, underestimating the forces that are acting against them. The line "Now oceans beginning to burn" could be interpreted as an environmental concern or a metaphorical reference to the world being destroyed. The chorus of the song "We are the end, we are the chosen ones" suggests that the band may see themselves as the last line of defense against an apocalyptic end.

So you should keep them in their weak shells
This could be interpreted a few different ways - either the singer is telling someone else to keep these people trapped in their sad state, or they are advocating for them to be freed from this negativity.


Victims of torture
The people, or perhaps the world at large, seems to be victimized by an unknown party - this could be literal or figurative.
