The Abyss
Khors Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Spreading the drops of dew
And the cold of the dawn.
I'm the flame of the destiny
Burning the remains of hope
And the frame of consciousness.
The lyrics of Khors's song The Abyss seem to speak of a being or force that is both destructive and transformative. The first verse begins with the line "I'm the wind of sorrow", which suggests a certain melancholy or sadness associated with this being. The next line about "spreading the drops of dew" seems to speak of a pervasive, insidious quality like a mist that creeps in and gradually dampens everything. The final line about "the cold of the dawn" brings us to a place of new beginnings, but also of harshness and unsympathetic clarity.
The second verse starts with "I'm the flame of the destiny", and the tone changes from melancholy to something more fiery and ambitious. It's clear that the being or force described here is a destroyer of sorts, "burning the remains of hope" and leaving nothing but the charred ashes of shattered dreams. The last line of the song, "And the frame of consciousness", once again brings us to a more introspective place. This being seems to represent a kind of brutal honesty, an unyielding and merciless force that strips away illusions and false realities to reveal a stark truth.
Overall, The Abyss seems to be a meditation on the nature of transformation, and the pain and growth that it entails. It's a poetic rendering of the idea that in order to create something new, something old must be destroyed first. The being described in the song is a symbol of that transformative power, simultaneously beautiful and terrifying.
