Dead Flowers
Demon Hunter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel ashamed,
With abandon in my heart and on my face
I've suffered the blame,
I would show to you this way but I'm too late

When the sorrow it breaks them,
I will replace them
For you.

Dead flowers for the torn apart.
Laid at the grave to heal a broken heart.
Let it rain until it floods
Let the sun breathe life once more
Reborn.

I wish you the same
To walk beside and carry on this flame.
To see you again
With a radiance of pure and holiness.

When the sorrow it breaks them,
I will replace them
For you.

Dead flowers for the torn apart.
Laid at the grave to heal a broken heart.
Let it rain until it floods
Let the sun breathe life once more
Reborn.

Dead flowers for the torn apart.
Laid at the grave to heal a broken heart.
Let it rain until it floods
Let the sun breathe life once more
Reborn.

Dead flowers for the torn apart
Dead flowers for the torn apart
Dead flowers for the torn apart
Dead flowers for the torn apart.

Let it rain until it floods
Let the sun breathe life once more
Reborn.

Dead flowers for the torn apart
Dead flowers for the torn apart
Dead flowers for the torn apart
Dead flowers for the torn apart




Dead flowers for the torn apart

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Demon Hunter's "Dead Flowers" speak to the sorrow and pain of loss and the desire for renewal and healing. The opening lines express a sense of shame, perhaps related to an inability to prevent the loss or to properly mourn. The singer refers to abandoning something, which could suggest neglect or the failure to be present when needed. The lines "I've suffered the blame, I would show to you this way but I'm too late" imply that the singer has faced criticism or condemnation, and now wishes to make things right, but feels it is too late.


The chorus, "Dead flowers for the torn apart, laid at the grave to heal a broken heart," speaks to the idea of using symbols of death and decay to bring about new life and growth. The image of dead flowers laid at a grave suggests a sort of funeral rite, but also implies that the beauty of these flowers can be used to nourish the earth and create new growth. The lines "Let it rain until it floods, let the sun breathe life once more, reborn" drive home the idea that even in the midst of sorrow and loss, there is the potential for renewal and rebirth.


The final verse expresses a desire to share this renewed sense of hope and purpose with others, to walk alongside them in their journey towards healing and wholeness. The lines "With a radiance of pure and holiness" suggest that this healing is not just physical or emotional, but spiritual as well. The overall message of the song is one of finding hope and beauty amidst the pain of loss, and using that beauty to create something new and life-affirming.

I feel ashamed with abandon in my heart and on my face
I suffered the blame
I would show to you this way
But I'm too late
When the sorrow, it breaks them
I will replace them
For you
Dead flowers for the torn apart
Laid at the grave to heal a broken heart
Let it rain until it floods
Let the sun breathe life once more
Reborn
Wish you the same
To walk beside and carry on this flame
To see you again
With a radiance
Of pure and holy name
When the sorrow, it breaks them
I will replace them
For you
Dead flowers for the torn apart
Laid at the grave to heal a broken heart
Let it rain until it floods
Let the sun breathe life once more
Reborn
Dead flowers for the torn apart
Laid at the grave to heal a broken heart
Let it rain until it floods
Let the sun breathe life once more

Dead flowers for the torn apart
Dead flowers for the torn apart
Dead flowers for the torn apart
Let it rain until it floods
Let the sun breathe life once more

Guys I recently lost my mother. She sit down with me at church shortly before she passed and told me God told her he was taking her soon and not to be afraid because she wasn't. She told me to keep the faith in Christ and I swear the second verse is just like she is here speaking it to me. God bless you guys for this song! Thank you
