Pulse
Dominical Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Before I wake and face the morning
Once the autumn's here to take me
The whisky will run out in silence
You were throne and tainted wonder
That made me king of an affliction
I spared comfort in becoming
FEEL THE BURDEN OF YOUR GLORY
SO FRAIL AND TENDER, SO DISTORTED
THE PULSE RUNS FASTER EVERY HOUR
STILL I... CAN'T FIND A GODDESS TO RELY ON
To allow you to write a new chapter
Is to repeat in vain the cycle
We were danger. We are strangers
What we conceal will never lay to rest
THERE'S NO DOORWAY NOW TO OPEN
EUPHORIA TURNED INTO THIS COLDNESS
I LIVE IN YOU, I'M YOUR REMINDER
TO BLEED AND WATCH HOW WE EXPECTED TO FALL
Wish I'd strayed within your cuddle
Before I wake and found me sober
Once the autumn pass the summer line
The whisky will drown me into silence
In the first verse, the lyrics convey a sense of regret and longing for staying in the present moment. The singer wishes they had embraced the fleeting nature of life before waking up to face the challenges of the morning. The mention of autumn symbolizes a transitional period, where the singer implies that once it arrives, the comfort of their current state will disappear, leaving them in silence and possibly loneliness.
The second verse introduces a relationship dynamic. The singer describes the other person as a throne and tainted wonder, which suggests that this person holds a certain allure and power over them. This individual's influence has made the singer feel like a king, but the kingdom they rule over is one of affliction, implying that their relationship brings pain or hardship. Despite this, the singer finds solace in embracing this discomfort and has chosen a path of solitude, not expecting anyone to rescue them or offer comfort.
Moving to the chorus, the lyrics emphasize the weight and fragility of the other person's glory. The burden and distortion of this person's presence become overwhelming, causing the singer to feel a pulse that grows faster with each passing hour. Despite their desire, the singer cannot find a goddess or a figure to rely on, suggesting a longing for someone to provide stability or salvation.
The third verse conveys a sense of repetition and futility in the relationship. Allowing the other person to write a new chapter in their lives only leads to a cyclical pattern that holds no real progress. The singer acknowledges that they were once danger together, but now they have become strangers. The things they hide or keep secret from each other will never truly be resolved or laid to rest.
The final lines of the song depict a desire to have embraced the warmth and comfort that the other person provided before waking up and realizing the reality of their sobriety. The transition from summer to autumn symbolizes a change in their relationship, where the whisky, possibly a metaphor for escape or numbness, will drown them into silence. This suggests that the singer may have lost the comfort and escape they found in this relationship as time has passed.

Wish I'd strayed within the moment
I wish I had stayed fully present in the present moment
Before I wake and face the morning
Before facing the reality of a new day upon waking up
Once the autumn's here to take me
Once the season of change and reflection arrives
The whisky will run out in silence
The comfort and escape offered by alcohol will eventually fade away without a sound
You were throne and tainted wonder
You represented both the highest symbol of power and an intriguing element of corruptness
That made me king of an affliction
That allowed me to hold dominion over my own struggles and hardships
I spared comfort in becoming
I found solace in embracing and accepting
A crownless man awaiting no one
A person with no external authority or expectations, waiting for no one
FEEL THE BURDEN OF YOUR GLORY
Experience the weight and responsibility that comes with achieving greatness or success
SO FRAIL AND TENDER, SO DISTORTED
Being delicate and vulnerable, yet twisted or misunderstood
THE PULSE RUNS FASTER EVERY HOUR
The heartbeat quickens with the passing of time
STILL I... CAN'T FIND A GODDESS TO RELY ON
Yet, I am unable to find a trustworthy and dependable source of divine guidance or support
To allow you to write a new chapter
To give you the opportunity to create a fresh beginning or change
Is to repeat in vain the cycle
Is to futilely repeat the same patterns or experiences
We were danger. We are strangers
We were a source of risk or harm to each other. Now, we are unfamiliar and distant
What we conceal will never lay to rest
What we hide or keep hidden will always remain unsettled or unresolved
THERE'S NO DOORWAY NOW TO OPEN
There is no longer an opportunity to access or enter through a path or gateway
EUPHORIA TURNED INTO THIS COLDNESS
The once ecstatic and joyful feelings have transformed into emotional detachment and chilliness
I LIVE IN YOU, I'M YOUR REMINDER
I exist within you and serve as a constant reminder
TO BLEED AND WATCH HOW WE EXPECTED TO FALL
To experience pain or vulnerability and observe how we anticipated or predicted our own downfall
Wish I'd strayed within your cuddle
I wish I had stayed embraced in your loving arms
Before I wake and found me sober
Before facing reality and realizing I am no longer under the influence of alcohol
Once the autumn pass the summer line
Once the season of transition surpasses the height of warmth and vitality
The whisky will drown me into silence
Alcohol will submerge me into a state of silence and numbness
