The latest of these, entitled "Vessels of Light and Decay", was released in October 2012 through Profound Lore records; its seven tracks further refining the balance between dissonance and eerie musicality, and hazarding a vertiginous leap towards the consolidation of Indesinence’s own distinctive voice.

Aura
Indesinence Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sanctum, sanctorum

It is late and the grey is closing in
Outside, and the scent is creeping in
Silently, flowing
Awash, awaiting, breathing

Boundless beauty unveils

Beneath an ageless wisdom
Beneath her decaying skin
Perfection revealed, untouched

Awash, awaiting, breathing

Touch gentle as air
Limbs naked and frail
Opened to you, an altar
Endless, timeless

Let us shut the doors and turn down the blinds
In praise of blindness
And dance under neon lights
In tribute of agelessness

We will bring her back together

The world is taking so long to die

"Le demon aussi etái un ange avant"
(the Devil himself was once an angel)

Overall Meaning

The song "Aura" by Indesinence is a beautiful and haunting composition that conveys a sense of mystery, melancholy, and reverence. The main theme of the song seems to be the beauty and impermanence of life, as well as the idea that there is something transcendent and eternal that lies beyond our mortal existence. The lyrics are full of vivid imagery, with lines like "the scent is creeping in," "limbs naked and frail," and "beneath her decaying skin," creating a vivid sense of imagery that transports the listener to another world.

The opening lines of the song, "Sanctum, sanctorum," create a spiritual and sacred atmosphere, as if we are entering into a holy place. The repetition of "awash, awaiting, breathing" throughout the song, along with the gentle and delicate tone of the music, gives the impression of a gentle, loving embrace that is both comforting and challenging. The closing lines of the song, "The world is taking so long to die / 'Le demon aussi etái un ange avant'" (the Devil himself was once an angel), seem to suggest a kind of hopefulness in the face of darkness and despair, as if even the most wicked and destructive forces in the world can be redeemed and made beautiful again.

Line by Line Meaning

Sanctum, sanctorum
The sacred, holy place

It is late and the grey is closing in
The day is ending and darkness is approaching

Outside, and the scent is creeping in
The scent of the world is entering the sacred space

Silently, flowing
The scent is moving silently through the air

Awash, awaiting, breathing
The space is full of anticipation and life

Boundless beauty unveils
The infinite and stunning beauty is revealed

Beneath an ageless wisdom
This beauty is accompanied by an ancient wisdom

Beneath her decaying skin
This beauty and wisdom persist despite imperfections

Perfection revealed, untouched
The beauty and wisdom are perfect and unaltered

Touch gentle as air
The touch is delicate and weightless

Limbs naked and frail
The body is exposed and vulnerable
