Void
Maydrim Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe its better to go see whats ahead
We cannot know how far the bottom is
Maybe we throw a stone to measure the time
Until we see it
We never need it
Measuring the echo of your inner void
Until we see it
We never need it
Substract the echo and you have the scream
Let me alone with all I need
To be happy
Im sure its gonna fill the void inside
Explicit lyrics or something new,
Substract the echo and you have the void
Let me alone with all I need
To be free
Im sure that it wont be enough
Let me alone with all I need
To be free
Im sure its gonna fill the void inside
Weve built in the earth strange big objects from nowhere, invented by ourselves
Is the real structure formed of complex mathematical operations that equal void?
The lyrics of Maydrim's song "Void" explore the theme of emptiness and voids that exist within our psyche. The opening lines highlight the uncertainty and ambiguity of the unknown, and urges the listener to focus on moving forward rather than dwelling on what's behind. The next few lines suggest that we can never truly know how deep our void is until we attempt to measure it ourselves, perhaps by throwing a stone into the abyss and counting how many seconds it takes to hit the bottom.
The chorus underscores the idea that until we truly confront our inner void, we will never truly understand it. It suggests that the answer to understanding this void is to remain alone and introspective, and measure its echoes. The key line "Substract the echo and you have the scream" suggests that the echo itself represents the noise that we make externally when trying to fill our emptiness, while the void itself is the silence that lurks within.
The final stanza makes a subtle reference to the artificial and materialistic world that we have created, filled with objects that we have built ourselves but that don't necessarily bring us true fulfillment. The rhetorical question posed in the end suggests that perhaps the true fabric of our reality isn't in the things we've created, but in the complex operations that lie beyond that, and that maybe it all ultimately equals void.
