Symphony Of The Damned
Lefay Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

IN NOMANS LAND BETWEEN
HEAVEN AND HELL
MADNESS IS CHANTING MY NAME
THOUSAND SOULS
ERRATIC IN LIFE
CHAINED IN NOPLACE
BEREAVED THEIR HEAVEN
OUT OF TUNE NOISES
PULSATING IN MY MIND
A FATAL OPERA
INFERNO OF SOUNDS
MY CONSCIENCE FADING
FADING

NOWHERE IN TIME
YESTERDAY IS TOMORROWS TODAY
YESTERDAY IS TOMORROWS TODAY
SHADELESS FACES
SOULS WITH NO NAME
STANDING HYPNOTIZED
GOING INSANE
HEARING HELPESSLY - LISTEN

TO THE SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED
SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED
SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED
SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED

I SEARCH FOR LIGHT THAT
I CAN'T FIND
I SEARCH FOR SHADOWS IN THIS
LIFE BEHIND
FROM SOUTH OF HEAVEN THEY ARE
CALLING ME
THROUGH THIS HYSTERICAL
PSYCHIC CUSTODY
I FEEL HANDS OF COMPACT NOTHING
TIGHTEN ITS GRIP ON ME

SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED
SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED
SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED
SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED

CORRIDORS BLINDLY
I CAN SEE THEM
FLASHING BY IN THE SHADOWS
OF MY CONSCIENCE
THERE'S A VOICE
CALLING FOR MY SOUL
IN MY MIND
THE SENSES OVERFLOWING
TO A PEAK PAST
OF WHAT IS HUMAN
AS A GOD I SPREAD MY WING I FLY

I'M ALIVE
I GOT THE FIRE
GOT THE RAGE
LIKE A GIANT BIRD OF PRAY
I AM THE NIGHT
I'M THE DARK
I'M THE RAVEN
I'M THE ONE
THAT YOU WOULD CALL
DESCENDED FROM THE SKY

LIKE TEARS LOST IN THE RAIN
THAT MUSIC FADES...

I SWEEP OVER PARADISE
WHERE THIS GOD RULES IN DISGUISE
FURTHER ON TO A HIGHER PLANE
WHERE I'M PROMISED TO BE BORN AGAIN

LIKE TEARS LOST IN THE RAIN
THAT MUSIC FADES...

...THAT SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED
SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED




SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED
SYMPHONY OF THE DAMNED

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lefay's song Symphony of the Damned are quite dark and mysterious, encapsulating a sense of madness and chaos that is hard to shake off. The song talks about being in "no man's land between heaven and hell", a place where madness is calling out to the singer's name. There are thousands of souls here, all erratic in life and chained in no place, bereaved of their heaven. The singer hears out-of-tune noises pulsating in their mind, creating a fatal opera, an inferno of sounds that pushes them over the edge. As their conscience begins to fade, the singer is transported to a place where time has no meaning, where yesterday is tomorrow's today. They see shadeless faces, souls with no name, standing hypnotized and going insane, all hearing helplessly as the symphony of the damned plays on.


In the midst of this chaos, there is a search for light that can't be found, a search for shadows in a life behind. The singer feels hands of compact nothing tightening its grip on them, while corridors flash by in the shadows of their conscience. They hear a voice calling out for their soul, and their senses overflow to a peak where they feel like a god, spreading their wings and flying. The song ends on a note of despair, with the music fading away like tears lost in the rain, while the symphony of the damned plays on.
