Canopy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The world as you know it will fall
Last lingering thread
It's origins denied by us all
Pulsating through deadscapes in floods
Poison every last withering vine
A sight of aw, bend to the obscene
Fractured world
As will and perception, follow me
Driven by one sole intention
As we arrange the patterns, bound to you
Inactivate our trauma
Motionless acts
The world as you know it in wait
Further away
Give in to the concept of hate
Pulsating through deadscapes in floods
Poison every last shell of rust
The pendium is swinging, unearth all you need
Galleries emptied, a sickening deed
Fractured world
As will and perception, follow me
Driven by one sole intention
As we arrange the patterns, bound to you
Inactivate our trauma
Picture myself in void
This one design I'm through
Picture myself in void
All debt left for you
Walked into the hallway
Gathered dust, right on time
Pour my mind open
Drastic change, still inclined
Stand, ready and waiting
Time is now, will decide
The song Void by Canopy is a commentary on the current state of the world, which the lyricist perceives as being in a state of decay. The first verse points out that the world is becoming shapeless and that our perception of it is falling apart. The idea that our perception is the last lingering thread that ties us to the world is noteworthy. This indicates that the lyricist believes that once our perception of the world becomes disjointed, we will lose touch with it entirely. The cause of this is described as a core that is rotten, which is growing beneath the surface of the world, unnoticed by most. This seed of destruction pulsates through the deadscapes and poisons all life it touches. The second verse continues along the same vein, pointing out that the world is fractured, and it is being consumed by hate. The pendulum is swinging, and we are on the verge of an unholy deed. The chorus speaks of the singer's desire to remove themselves from this world, which is poisoned and fractured, and to move into the void, leaving their debt to the world.
Line by Line Meaning
Structureless shapes
The world we know is without a strong foundation
The world as you know it will fall
The current state of the world is unsustainable and will come to an end
Last lingering thread
There is a weak connection to the past that is barely holding on
It's origins denied by us all
We refuse to acknowledge where we came from and the consequences of our actions
Pulsating through deadscapes in floods
Destruction is happening on a massive scale
Poison every last withering vine
All aspects of life are being corrupted and destroyed
The core is rotten, an undergrowing seed
The root of the problem is deeply entrenched and growing
A sight of aw, bend to the obscene
We are becoming desensitized to disturbing and abnormal things
Fractured world
The world is divided and broken
As will and perception, follow me
Our thoughts and actions are being influenced by outside forces
Driven by one sole intention
There is a singular motive behind everything happening
As we arrange the patterns, bound to you
We are all interconnected and affected by each other's actions
Inactivate our trauma
We need to address and heal from our past to move forward
Motionless acts
We are not taking action to change the current state of the world
The world as you know it in wait
We are at a tipping point and unsure of what the future holds
Further away
Things continue to devolve and move away from a positive outcome
Give in to the concept of hate
Negative emotions and actions are taking over
Poison every last shell of rust
Everything is decaying and falling apart
The pendium is swinging, unearth all you need
The future is uncertain and we need to learn and prepare for anything
Galleries emptied, a sickening deed
Everything that was once beautiful and treasured is gone
Picture myself in void
I am overwhelmed and feel empty
This one design I'm through
I am done with the current way of living
All debt left for you
The consequences of our actions will fall on future generations
Walked into the hallway
I am moving forward, uncertain of what's to come
Gathered dust, right on time
Time has passed and the situation has not improved
Pour my mind open
I am opening myself up to new ideas and ways of thinking
Drastic change, still inclined
I am ready for change, even if it is difficult
Stand, ready and waiting
I am prepared for whatever comes next
Time is now, will decide
This moment is crucial and will determine our future

This song immediately sold me on the game after hearing it in the demo.
I must've replayed that demo like 50 times, just flying around timing the gameplay with the beat of the song, it's so good.
DrMerciless
This game was a lot of fun. I wish it would have picked up. I often play this game just for the soundtrack.
Nantchev
Yeah, soundtrack was good.
I also like the verticality of the game play. You have a jetpack with unlimited fuel! How cool is that?!
Miles R4
Amazing game indeed.

Bear McCreary! I recognized his style immediately. Genius.

3:20 is my favorite part. It really gives the feeling of soaring through the clouds at rocket speed.

It definitely has a BSG to it (and yeah I know that Bear did the scoring of the series) and that's one of the reasons why I like the game so far.
Anthony Freeman
The percussion is awesome!
