Apocalyptic
Inversion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Coming forth from the tomb of the mutilated
It was given a mouth to spew forth
Perverted words of gore
Seeking only to twist the psyche
Scarring the innocent, betraying the young
With hate and power driving their lies
Impressioning the mind
Then left to burn inside
'Til acted out in crime
Spread the vile infection
You have no need to fear
Cast off all discretion
The ACLU will protect you here
Hide behind your "freedom"
And say what you will
Each uttered word shall be weighed
Each thought exposed, revealed
Hideous thoughts penetrate
Impressions on the mind
Then left to burn inside
'Til acted out in crime
Lechery
Pornography
Idiocy
When will it end?
Autonomy
Debauchery
Lunacy
You cherish your vice
Assert your rights
Mock now
Turn not
And judgment will come.
Inversion's "Apocalyptic" portrays a world filled with hate and power-driven lies, where a star emerges from the tomb of the mutilated, given a mouth to spew forth perverted words of gore, seeking only to twist the psyche, scarring the innocent, and betraying the young. Through these lyrics, Inversion reminds us how hideous thoughts penetrate and impress the mind, then eventually left to burn inside until they are acted out in crime. They call out everyone spreading a vile infection by casting off all discretion and hiding behind the idea of freedom. They warn that each uttered word shall be weighed, each thought exposed and revealed, and sooner or later, the judgment will come.
