Title Track
Capsule Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ancient your flesh turned spiral drain...
Nevermind a title not for open eyes...reset your descent left from a golden age

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Capsule's song "Title Track" are enigmatic and full of symbolism. The first line "Ancient your flesh turned spiral drain" seems to convey a sense of decay and decline, perhaps pointing to the decay of society or even the decay of the human body. The second line "Nevermind a title not for open eyes" suggests that there are secrets or knowledge that are not meant to be revealed to everyone. It is possible that this refers to the hidden meanings in the lyrics or the music itself. The third line "reset your descent left from a golden age" implies that there was once a time of prosperity or greatness, but it has been lost and needs to be found again.

Line by Line Meaning

Ancient your flesh turned spiral drain...
Your body, once grand and ageless, has become a twisted and deteriorating shell.

Nevermind a title not for open eyes...
Disregard any label or identification that is meant to be hidden or kept secret.

reset your descent left from a golden age
Change course from the decline that began in a time of prosperity and progress.
