Abyss of Evil
Jorn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You look for the sunshine but rain falls down instead
Lost in the wilderness there is chaos everywhere
Win or lose pick and choose we are the children of despair
Roll the dice pay the price look for a reason
Wise man show me which way to go
Tell me what you know tell me what you know
Do you know the wonders of the world
No time for healing get down on your knees and pray
There was one shot in the dark a stranger in the park
And I was only one step away
Spinning the wheel chains of steel to the crossroads we sail on
Wise man show me which way to go
Stay away from the abyss of evil
Where the monsters and demons collide
In the eye of the storm you'll be shattered and torn
On your journey to paradise ooh oh oh
Roll the dice pay the price look for a reason
Wise man show me which way to go
Keep away from the abyss of evil
Where the monsters and demons collide
In the eye of the storm you'll be shattered and torn
On your journey to paradise
Stay away from the abyss of evil oh
In the eye of the storm you'll be shattered and torn
On your journey to paradise oh oh look away
Stay away from the abyss of evil
The lyrics of "Abyss of Evil" by Jorn embody the theme of being lost and searching for direction, with darkness and chaos lurking at every turn. It's a depiction of the struggles that every person goes through in life - seeking purpose, facing obstacles, and dealing with the consequences that come with the choices we make. The opening lines describe the disappointments encountered in life, with the rain falling instead of sunshine. The idea of being lost in the wilderness represents confusion and uncertainty.
The lyrics go on to talk about the importance of finding a wise man to guide us, asking for advice and wondering if there are truly wonders in the world to be discovered. The line "no time for healing" suggests that life doesn't give us a break, and we must keep moving forward despite the trials we face. The reference to a "shot in the dark" suggests that life is unpredictable, and we may only be one step away from something disastrous.
The chorus warns of the dangers of the "abyss of evil," where monsters and demons lurk. It's a metaphor for negative influences that can pull us down and destroy us, leaving us "shattered and torn." The lyrics encourage us to stay away from that place and instead focus on our journey to paradise.
Line by Line Meaning
You wake up in the morning and you shake your weary head
Starting a new day with exhaustion and discomfort
You look for the sunshine but rain falls down instead
Hoping for the best outcome but experiencing disappointment
Lost in the wilderness there is chaos everywhere
Being overwhelmed and confused in a chaotic situation
Win or lose pick and choose we are the children of despair
Feeling a sense of hopelessness regardless of one's choices or outcomes
Roll the dice pay the price look for a reason
Taking risks that come with a cost, searching for a purpose
Wise man show me which way to go
Seeking guidance and knowledge from someone more experienced
Tell me what you know tell me what you know
Requesting wisdom and insight from the wise man
Do you know the wonders of the world
Questioning the wise man's breadth of knowledge
Digging to the core digging to the core always wanting more yeah
Continually searching for deeper meaning and satisfaction
No time for healing get down on your knees and pray
Feeling an urgency to seek help and guidance through prayer
There was one shot in the dark a stranger in the park
A sudden, dangerous, unexpected encounter with something or someone unknown
And I was only one step away
The artist was close to danger or disaster but was able to avoid it by a small margin
Spinning the wheel chains of steel to the crossroads we sail on
Moving forward in a dangerous, unpredictable situation with no control
Stay away from the abyss of evil
Avoiding dangerous, dark situations or people
Where the monsters and demons collide
A place where evil and malicious enemies thrive
In the eye of the storm you'll be shattered and torn
Being in the midst of chaos and danger will cause pain and harm
On your journey to paradise ooh oh oh
Through struggles and difficulties, one hopes to find their ultimate destination of happiness and peace
Keep away from the abyss of evil
Continuing to avoid dangerous and evil situations
Stay away from the abyss of evil oh
Reinforcing the importance of avoiding evil and dangerous situations
On your journey to paradise oh oh look away
Even though the journey towards happiness and peace may be difficult, don't be deterred by danger or evil
