Crow
FRCTRD Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Look at what you imagine
Why do you inflict
This sorrow to yourself?
My perception lost in this hopeless sensation
Fuck!
All my life I've tried
Filled with my cold blood
Fight this unconciousness
This unconsciousness
Forget these threatening fears
Fight this unconsciousness
Forget!
Devour your punishment
It's time to close your wounds
Why do you inflict
This sorrow to yourself?
Look at your life passing by
Because of your fantasy
All my life I've tried
Filled with my cold blood
Forget these threatening fears
Fight this unconsciousness
This unconsciousness
Forget these threatening fears
Fight this unconsciousness
The lyrics of the song 'Crow' by FRCTRD reflect the theme of introspection and self-realization. Through the words "Everything is an illusion," the singer challenges the listener to see beyond what the eyes see and to question their own perception of reality. He encourages the listener to examine their thoughts and beliefs with lines such as "Look at what you imagine" and "Why do you inflict this sorrow to yourself?" The singer, through the use of profanity says "Fuck!" depicting the urgency of the message, that it is vital to break free from the illusions that hold them captive.
The singer expresses his struggle, lamenting how his perception is lost in a hopeless sensation. He declares that he has tried all his life, but feels filled with cold blood, indicating that perhaps he feels numb to the things around him. He urges the listener to forget their fears and fight against their unconsciousness. The singer encourages one to close their wounds, to stop inflicting sorrow upon themselves, and to look at their life passing by due to their fantasy.
The lyrics of 'Crow' are quite thought-provoking and come across as an honest message, urging listeners to connect with themselves and their inner emotions. The song portrays the idea that change, growth, and transformation are only possible once an individual acknowledges and accepts the illusions they have created. They must be willing to let go of their fears and unconsciousness to experience true freedom.
