Comfort of the Void
Give My Remains To Broadway Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But its showing me things that I can't believe
Dreamin' of things that I cannot speak of
Slumbering gods where light just retreats from
In the sea of void
All I see is void
I hear its voice
It runs its course
All I feel is void
I hear its voice
It runs its course
I see the void
All I feel is void
I hear its voice
It runs its course
I feed it's force
And deplore his court
His form Contorts
And his will extorts
I don't know what's come over me
Now it's showing me things I could only dream of
I'm seeing things that I cannot speak of
Slumbering gods where light cant defeat them
In the sea of void
All I see is void
I hear it's voicе
It runs its course
I see the void
All I feel is void
I hear its voicе
It runs its course
In the comfort of the void
In the palm of its hands
Concealing its ploy
Corruption stands
I heed its voice
A Cyclopean mass
And I'm beneath its force
The lyrics to "Comfort of the Void" by Give My Remains To Broadway describe a surreal experience in which the singer is confronted with the idea of a vast, unknowable void that is both all-consuming and inescapable. The singer speaks of his dreams, his fears, and his sense of awe at the power of this void, which seems to be both a force of creation and of destruction.
At times, the singer seems to be in thrall to the void, describing how he "feeds its force" and "deplores its court," suggesting a kind of subservience or even worship. Yet at other times, he seems to be resisting its pull, proclaiming that he cannot "speak of" the things he sees, or describing how "corruption stands" in the face of the void's power. Overall, the lyrics suggest a profound sense of existential dread, as the singer confronts the possibility that there may be something beyond the known world that is both beautiful and terrifying.
