To Distance Death From Life
Mactätus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Beholds the distinction let after decades of disintegration blackness a frail foundation build
Upon an ending life and a never
Ending death pay the ultimate sacrifice for fitting in suffer the consequence seduced by
Curiosity admist the haven of laughter cloned by the sacrilegious holder of distinction to
Distance death from life blinded by hologram
A picture of your dead bringing to your knees kissing curtains of deception
With bleeding lips caressing the flesh of murder holding the hand of decay to distance death
Betrayal betrothal tp the decency of darkness once again stagnation within the shel no way
To prosper and distance death frome life
The lyrics of Mactätus's song, "To Distance Death From Life," are complex and enigmatic, reflecting the band's black metal roots and their penchant for exploring the darker side of human nature. The song appears to be exploring the idea of choosing one's own fate, either with honor or with vanity, and how the essence of one's being comes from within. The lyrics suggest that one can either build a frail foundation upon their ending life and never-ending death or pay the ultimate sacrifice to fit in and suffer the consequences.
The themes of the song are dark and foreboding, as they explore the idea of being seduced by curiosity amidst the "haven of laughter" and being blinded by a "hologram." The lyrics suggest that we are all clones of the sacrilegious "holder of distinction" and that we are all striving to distance ourselves from death and embrace life. However, the song suggests that this is a futile endeavor, as we are all ultimately doomed to decay, stagnation, and darkness.
The music itself is equally dark and brooding, with heavy, distorted guitar riffs and thundering drums that create a foreboding atmosphere of impending doom. The vocals are harsh and guttural, adding to the sense of desperation and despair conveyed by the lyrics. In all, "To Distance Death From Life" is a powerful and thought-provoking song that explores some of the darkest aspects of the human experience.

Thank you so much. I am on my healing journey from my childhood trauma. Man do I see a move of God. Thank you for your obedience. I never knew I was wounded by someone who never was truly there for me. I had been looking for love, but God’s got my heart now.
I am able to forgive my dad, but there is this part that is broken that needs to be healed.
God bless you, and thank you.
