The Crows Ain't Far Behind
Dunbarrow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Some thing will never change
Why plan for the best
When you expect the worst
All hope is out of range
And the sun won't give you no light
I guess you know the trouble's gonna come
I guess you know the race has run
When demon strikes at every turn
A smell of death is on your mind
Oh oh, you gotta burn!
Your inner flame couldn't burn dry grass
But is gonna scorch your mind
And when there's no warm lights on your path
The crows ain't far behind
And the sun won't give you no light
I guess you know the trouble's gonna come
When your heart host the night
I guess you know the race has run
When demon strikes at every turn
A smell of death is on your mind
And the crows ain't far behind
The song "The Crows Ain't Far Behind" by Dunbarrow provides interesting lyrics that describe the dark times and painful experiences that a person goes through in life. The singer seems to be acknowledging that bad things happen to all of us and that expecting the worst is a natural reaction to trauma. The lyrics suggest that there is no point in planning for the best or having any hope when it is already out of range. The darkness that surrounds us when we are in pain is compared to the night that has taken over our hearts. The demons that we face at every turn and the smell of death on our minds is a representation of the suffering that we go through.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the inevitability of these dark times and the presence of the crows that come along. The crows symbolize the sorrow and negative emotions that follow a person during difficult times. The singer seems to imply that even though one might attempt to brush off or ignore the pain, it will always follow and be close by.
Overall, the song "The Crows Ain't Far Behind" can be interpreted as a message of hope during dark times. It suggests that we need to embrace the pain and accept that it is part of the human experience. We must acknowledge that bad things happen to all of us, and that we need to accept that it’s alright sometimes to not be alright.
