Revelation
Demise Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Through lies
The revelation is coming
Ancient orders crossing their ways
Celebrating the truth which I create
Delve in secrets of their sick thoughts.

Waiting for glory...
I create the universe

They worship and are bowing to me
I need human things
And they will do it for me.
Blinders and no ears
Beings with no soul

Revelation like a divine touch
Wonderful material for orders to make
Unconscious of their deeds and convictions
Escaping the fear
They...

Waiting for glory
I create the universe

They worship and are bowing to me
I need human things
And they will do it for me.
Blinders and no ears





The Revelation is coming
Night became day and continue into infinity.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Demise's "Revelation" speak to the power dynamic between the singer and the people they are addressing. The singer is reveling in the lies they have spun and the way in which their followers bow down to them. They are described as creating the universe and requiring human things, and their followers are called "beings with no soul." This creates an interesting dichotomy between the singer and those who follow them, as the people are essentially puppets being played by the singer's whims, unaware of their actions and their own convictions. The power dynamic is further emphasized with the language of "celebrating the truth which I create" and the revelation being a divine touch, which reinforces the singer's complete control over the situation.


The theme of control and manipulation is central to the song, as evidenced by the image of the people having "blinders and no ears" and being "unconscious of their deeds and convictions." The feeling of fear and the idea of escaping it also play a role, suggesting that the people are being led by the singer as a way of avoiding their own anxieties and uncertainties. The overall tone is one of darkness and corruption, with the singer reveling in the power they have over others and the people seemingly unable to resist.
