Solar
Neglected Fields Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When day is gone the night is dusk
Grotesquely dark, hostilely ancient
Territories in obscurity.
The utter darkness descends
Something wild possesses the Earth
Where hunger guides ensomnia-makers
...Add the colour of disgust and
paint the horror enter
When night is dusk.

Uncertainty is what we get
When moon metastasis are reached out
Herbivorous instincts strike
The fear of flesh to be devoured
Sunrise blade... Slash sanguines, bright
Celestial beast's evescerated
My nocturnal passage stirs up
Fit I thought neglected
My heathen fit...

Lo!

Light solar
Archaic rapture follows
Infinite shine
Solar
The unity of flesh and flames
Almost divine

When night is gone the day is light
Oh vital light, perennial, ancient
Carnal spark the sun ignites...

Such an erotic fascination
Noctiflorous withering...

Strange things have birth
Renewing existance




Day blood awakening to justify and excuse
My pagan burst!

Overall Meaning

The song "Solar" by Neglected Fields is a dark and ominous reflection on the power of nature and the human connection to the cosmic forces around us. The opening lyrics describe the descent of darkness in the form of night, which seems to bring with it a feeling of wildness and danger. The use of grotesque and hostile imagery emphasizes the primal, animalistic nature of this darkness, which possesses the Earth and drives those who cannot sleep to hunger and disgust. The chorus of the song provides a counterpoint to this darkness in the form of the "light solar" - an archaic and almost divine force that represents the unity of flesh and flames.


The verses that follow explore the uncertainty and fear that comes with the lunar cycle, where the "moon metastasis" and "herbivorous instincts" create a sense of impending danger and violence. The imagery of the "sunrise blade" and "celestial beast's eviscerated" seems to suggest that these fears are well-founded, and that humanity must contend with the chaos and destruction that can come with the natural world. The final verse of the song speaks to the power of the day, which ignites a "carnal spark" and allows for a "pagan burst" of energy and life. Through this burst of energy, we are able to renew existence and justify our own blood awakening to the world around us.


Overall, "Solar" is a haunting and powerful song that speaks to the deep interconnection between humanity and the natural world. Through its use of vivid imagery and strong metaphorical language, it encourages listeners to think about the forces that shape our lives and the power we have to make a difference.
