Lacrim… Read Full Bio ↴Lacrimas Profundere is a gothic-doom metal band from Germany.
Lacrimas Profundere was founded in 1993 by guitarist Oliver Schmid. At the time, the band was strongly influenced by doom metal, and made use of feminine vocals and classical elements. With the entrance of vocalist Anja Hötzendorfer, they drew enough attention to themselves to be able to record their debut, entitled ... and the Wings Embraced Us, which was released in 1995 and was followed by La Naissance d’un Rêve, from 1997.
After said releases, the band was granted a deal with Napalm Records which included five albums. An harpist was added to the band's line-up and they proceeded to record Memorandum (1999).
Burning: A Wish from 2001 was Lacrimas Profundere's first album to receive attention from the international specialized press. This album featured the removal of the band's classical elements to some degree, and was also the first time they employed baritone vocals, supplied by Oliver's brother, Christopher Schmid. Their first international tour then began, including countries of Europe and Latin America.
Lacrimas Profundere's subsequent albums were Fall, I Will Follow from 2002 and Ave End from 2004. Recently their newest albums has been brought in the shops: Filthy Notes for Frozen Hearts.
Again, the formula of heavy guitars and the low smooth voice of the leadsinger brings a nice soothing sound. The dark soft song "Sad Theme For A Marriage" will sure keep you in silence...

LacrimasProfundere Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
o. to leave
fail... was I...
more to cover me
o. one
o. tear
Oblivion beneath, passion of all pity,
more than the barren tears
can't you see, there's no beloved
they're just helpless, another pale abuse
left in all...
I can't live for you
o. we can't, we hold our fault
we must die in
divinity, help me
help me, I wasn't your heaven
all you, all your tears you've once shed
The lyrics of Lacrimas Profundere's song Helplessness is a reflection of someone who is struggling with the pain of losing a loved one. The opening lyrics, "What have we done, to leave, fail... was I..." suggest regret and a sense of responsibility for the loss of the beloved. The persona seems to be seeking redemption and forgiveness for past mistakes. The lines "more to cover me, one tear" convey a feeling of helplessness and vulnerability, as if there's nothing that can be done to ease the pain. The mention of "Oblivion beneath" suggests a longing to escape from the pain and sorrow.
The tone of the song is melancholic and somber. The lyrics describe the passion of pity and the barren tears that have been shed, emphasizing the depth of the grief. The line "they're just helpless, another pale abuse left in all" conveys a sense of hopelessness and despair.

"Helplessness"
What have we done...
Oh, to leave...
Fail... was I...
More to cover me...
Oh, one...
Oh, tear...
Oblivion beneath, passion of all pity
More than the barren tears
Which your blood wept
Can't you see, there's no beloved
They're just helpless, another pale abuse
Left in all...
I can't live for you
Oh, we can't, we hold our fault
We must die in
Divinity, help me
Help me, I wasn't your heaven
All you, all your tears you've once shed
