Salvation
Infernal War Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Music: Triumphator, Lyrics: Warcrimer]

When all love is dead and all hope is gone
When you can't stand the pain that you feel everyday
Take a stand against the world and end your life
Find relief in death's sweet embrace
When you think your life has nothing more to give
When each your dawn brings suffering you cannot bear
The only way to break the chains of pain
Let your emotions control you and destroy yourself

Growing depression, bottomless despair
Unbearable incapacity
Life's bitterness, continuous self-hate
End your torment! choose the way to kill yourself

Realize, there is no way out
There is no escape! your only way's to kill yourself
Look into my eyes and see your worthlessness
Find relief in the sweet embrace of death

Take a blade and cut your veins, take some pills and sleep forever
Put your head into the noose, there're many ways so you can choose
Take a blade and cut your veins, feel life flowing out of you
Take some pills and sleep forever, pass away and find death better




Put your head into the noose, greet your great eternal sleep
There're many ways so you can choose, have no fears - it is no use

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Infernal War's song 'Salvation' depict a dark and nihilistic worldview that advocates for the ultimate escape of death. The first stanza addresses the feeling of hopelessness and despair one might experience when there seems to be no meaning or joy left in their life. The second stanza presents the idea that the only way to escape from the pain of life is through death, and that suicide is a viable option to do so. The chorus goes on to further emphasize this idea by suggesting different methods one could use to end their life voluntarily.


The lyrics of 'Salvation' paint a bleak picture of an individual that is unable to cope with the struggles and hardships of life. The song's message can be interpreted as a warning about the dangers of isolation, depression, and alienation. It suggests that sometimes, when people feel like there is no support left for them, they might resort to taking their own life as a way of seeking relief from the pain they're dealing with. The song doesn't pose any moral judgment nor does it take a stance on what course of action people should take when they hit rock bottom. Rather, it lays bare the reality of what goes on in some people's minds when they are driven to a point of no return.
