Her Name In Blood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
i will never lose to you
if i only had that sun
i'd ask for nothing more
if only i can touch that light
long before i was born
it was glowing nearby
everything would be redeemed
i wanna be closer
i wanna be closer to that light
if we can become one
i won't mind if everything turns against us
if i only had that sun
i'd ask for nothing more
if i can get closer to that light
as long as this heart keeps beating
i don't need to be what i am!!
i will never lose to you
as long as there is the sun
i'll never lose to you
if we can become one
i won't mind if everything turns against us
i can be anything
cause you have been the sun
i didn't know
that you have been the sun all along
i won't mind if everything turns against us
if we can become one
The lyrics of Her Name In Blood's song HALO express a desire to reach higher, to achieve a certain level of enlightenment or transcendence. The sun, often used as a metaphor for enlightenment or spiritual awakening, is mentioned repeatedly throughout the song. The singer proclaims that as long as there is the sun, they will never lose to "you," although it is not specified who or what this "you" represents. Having the sun is enough, enough to ask for nothing more, but the singer also wants to be closer to that light, to bask in its glow.
The song also mentions the idea of redemption and rebirth, as the sun has been there "when nothing existed" and "everything would be redeemed." The singer wants to be closer to that light not just for personal gain, but also to be closer to the source of all creation and rebirth. The final lines of the song suggest a certain level of surrender, the willingness to become one with another and face any challenges that may arise together.
