Geist
Centhron Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ein Licht brennt über meiner Stirn
Ich krieche langsam versunken im Schmerz
Seelenblut durchströmt das Herz
Ich spüre Kälte
Ich krieche vorwärts Richtung Heimat
Das Abendrot den Himmel tränkt
Als ein Splitter meinen Schädel sprengt
geist, er küsst die Nacht
Schwebt zeitlos in Unendlichkeit
Pure weiße Macht
Die Maschinerie erwacht
Über ein Meer aus Ignoranz
Ein Mensch mit namen "Kampf"
Krieg in Ewigkeit
The lyrics of Centhron's song Geist are heavily associated with themes of pain, cold, and suffering. The opening lines “Blut gefriert auf dünnem Eis” translate to blood freezes on thin ice, creating a visual scene of a desolate polar landscape where the harsh temperatures make survival difficult. The next line, “Ein Licht brennt über meiner Stirn,” describes a small flicker of hope, a light burning above the singer's forehead as they try to move forward. However, the pain is too much to bear and they are slowly sinking within their agony, consumed with an internal pain that causes their soul to bleed.
The lines “Als ein Splitter meinen Schädel sprengt” indicate a sudden and violent end. The moment is described with the words Geist, er küsst die Nacht, which means Spirit, he kisses the night. An ethereal being takes the singer into an infinite realm that transcends time and space. The pure white force takes on the guise of a machine as he awakens, providing an eerie and cold tone that incorporates the themes of pain and machinery that run through the song. The final lines “Ein Mensch mit Namen 'Kampf' / Krieg in Ewigkeit” speak of an endless war that leaves those who dwell within it aching with deep, unrelenting pain.
