Hole In The Sky
Cavalar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm seeing nowhere through the eyes of a lie
I'm getting closer to the end of the line
I'm living easy where the sun doesn't shine
I'm living in a room without any view
I'm living free because the rent's never due
The synonyms of all the things that I've said
Hole in the sky, take me to heaven
Window in time, through it I fly
I've seen the stars disappear in the sun
The shooting's easy if you've got the right gun
And even though I'm sitting waiting for Mars
I don't believe there's any future in cars
Hole in the sky, take me to heaven
Window in time, through it I fly
Yeah
I've watched the dogs of war enjoying their feast
I've seen the western world go down in the east
The food of love became the greed of our time
But now I'm living on the profits of pride
The lyrics of "Hole in the Sky" by Cavalera is a self-reflective composition, where the persona describes his current state of mind. The opening lines suggest a sense of disillusionment as he looks through a hole in the sky with eyes that cannot perceive truth because deception lies at the core. He admits to being on the edge of the line and living life's hardships with ease. This section's implied meanings depict the persona's weariness with the status quo, which pushes him to seek truth and redemption beyond his present life experiences.
The next lines imply a solitary life as the persona lives in a room that lacks a view, making his space insignificant in the grand scheme of things. However, the persona portrays a sense of freedom, which he enjoys by being his own boss since he is rent-free. He then refers to his words' ambiguity, which could mean things no one else can understand, revealing a complex thought process that most cannot fathom. In the chorus, the persona invites the universe to open up to him, asking for a window or a hole to transport him to a place of freedom.
The last verse of "Hole in the Sky" details the persona's experiences, from the triumphs of war to the decline of the western world. His observations confirm his warning of consumers converting their love for one another into greed, resulting in societal degradation. However, the last line provides hope as the persona admits to living in prosperity driven by his pride.
