Once Again
Forever Storm Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wandering the maze of this garden in black
Shapes of gray undefined and terrifying
Paths change on the way tell me why
Sky isn't there when I look tell me why

Once again you're the one
The selfish fool who runs
Tell me why, then leave me die
Enclose my mind again once again

Posses the gift that you don't want
Blinded by reasons you fall asleep
Dream of what they tell you to
Awaken in your world of cold reality

Once again you're the one
The selfish fool who runs
Tell me why then leave me die
Enclose my mind again once again

Throw me down throw yourself
Back to where it all began




Forsaken what you were blessed with
Well burn together on their stake

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Forever Storm's song Once Again explores the psychological struggles of an individual lost in the turmoil of life. The opening line "Wandering the maze of this garden in black" denotes the confusion and uncertainty that thematic the lyrics. The "shapes of gray undefined and terrifying" represents the numerous possibilities and opportunities presented to the individual that are unknown and fearful. The individual in the song feels lost as "paths change on the way" and the "sky isn't there when I look." This suggests the absence of hope and spirituality in the life of the individual.


The chorus "Once again you're the one, the selfish fool who runs" speaks to the individual's tendency to run from their problems and refuse to take responsibility for their actions. The line "enclose my mind again once again" represents the continual cycle of negative thought patterns that hinders the individual from progressing in life. The lyrics also suggest that the individual possesses a gift which they don't want or have the ability to cultivate.


The final line "we'll burn together on their stake" is a metaphor for the consequences of ignoring one's gift and living a life devoid of purpose. Overall, the song is a reflection of the struggles and challenges that come with finding one's purpose and meaning in life.

@ChristinaDarkRose

Quite good,but I didn't like the refrain very much,the vocal line is too rock for me.The rest of it is very very good.Well done!

@pulanceyt

Repetitive riffs and more bass guitar please good anyway

@Savstad95

The riffs got a little repeatative and boring... Still good! Turn up the lead guitar! Work on the vocals, i dont mean the voice, it's great, but on the lyrics and the melody of the vocal! I'l keep an eye on you guys... You got potential...
