The band currently consists of Christine Lorentzen (lead vocals), Mikkel Maltha (keyboard, piano), who also provided additional vocals in "Creeping In My Soul", Kasper Søderlund (lead guitar, bass guitar) and rarely-mentioned drummer Martin Pagaard.
No More Words
Cryoshell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A speaker deep inside my mind
I find me waking up at night
Trying to find
What you are doing in my mind
You are the shadow that I fear
'Cause you are always very near
And it's raining again
And I embrace it as a friend
It's not why
It's not how
I could grab this raincoat
And ask you out
But I try
Not to float with you
And walking blind
Won't give in to myself
One more time
It's this stupid fight
That's keeping me alive
You are the shadow that I fear
'Cause you are always very near
You're returning with the rain
And it's raining on me again
And I embrace it as a friend
Don't say anything
'Cause what you say pushes me to the edge
I'm falling down
No more words
Stop now
Stop now
So I won't fall apart again
It's not why
It's not how
I could grab this raincoat
And ask you out
But I try
Not to float with you
And walking blind
Won't give in to myself
One more time
It's this stupid fight
That's keeping me alive
Hmmm...
The lyrics to Cryoshell's song "No More Words" reveals a person grappling with the internal struggle caused by a "poisoner of minds." This could represent an individual or an idea that the person is unable to shake off. The individual confesses to waking up at night, searching for answers on why this individual or idea is deeply rooted in their mind. The presence of this constant shadow has caused the individual to have a fear of it and it's associated with rain, which seems to comfort them in a friend like manner. The person is consciously aware of the negative influence this shadow brings and their own vulnerability towards it, and it seems that they have had a history of falling apart from it before. Throughout the song, the person attempts to subvert the shadow's presence by refusing to give in to temptation again, in turn, keeping themselves alive from this constant burden.
Overall, the song's message is one of perseverance and mental fortitude in the face of an internally menacing threat. It's a common human experience to be plagued by something that seems beyond our control, and the lyrics articulate the constant battle to overcome it.
