Garden of Delight
Lunatica Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In this garden time is creeping
The odours so firm like a wall
Caressing me, making me loosing my will
Am I alone? How did I get here?
It seems that a gate in my dreams let me pass
What a picturesque place
A confusing heap of sounds
Almost like silence if you consume them entirely
My sight is sharpened

Garden of delight

I never find an exit
If beauty could kill I would have died a hundred deaths
Colours of a splendidness that I never saw before
Plants are highgrown and perfect




But somewhere there has to be a poisonous one
Beyond the surface, something is waiting just to overthrow me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lunatica's song Garden of Delight describe a dream-like state, in which the singer finds themselves in a garden that seems almost too perfect to be real. Time seems to move slowly, and the scents around them are overwhelming, making it difficult for them to keep their wits about them. They question whether they are alone, unsure of how they came to be there. The singer notes that the garden is picturesque, but also confusing, with a jumble of sounds that are almost like silence when taken in as a whole. Despite their instincts telling them to leave, the beauty of the garden keeps them captivated and exploring. However, the singer's perceptions shift at the end of the song, hinting that there may be danger lurking beneath the surface of the ideal garden, and suggesting that the experience may end in the singer's downfall.
