Reborn
Night Crowned Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh lady night, come forth and dance with me
In my suicidal waltz
My journey took a different path
Once I discovered your beauty and your might
Dark clouds and storms on the rise,
No need for light,
No need for prayers
No love left,
All hope for a future gone

As the moon casts its shadows over the land,
Your darkness fills me up
The victims on the ground,
A sacrifice in your name
No return for the choices I′ve made
You have filled me
Up with this power
Just give me a sign
And I will join your undying horde

Now let me walk by your side and lead us all to salvation
I have seen the sights, I have the vision clear
No more shall you reign alone
No more, no more
Give me my rightful place
No more, no more

I have earned the rights to be king
I have earned the rights to be king

Release me from my earthly shackles
Bring me in,
Cast your black spell over my soul
I will learn from your wisdom,
Your words I will follow
I'll be reborn as a dark
Heart with a clear conscience

Now let me walk by your side and lead us all to salvation
I have seen the sights, I have the vision clear
No more shall you reign alone
No more, no more
Give me my rightful place
No more, no more

I have earned the rights to be king
I have earned the rights to be king





As the moon casts its shadows
Your darkness fills me up

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Night Crowned’s “Reborn” are dark, with an emphasis on the power of the night and the allure of darkness. The singer is invoking “lady night,” the personified power of nighttime, and asking her to dance with him in a “suicidal waltz.” Throughout the song, the singer emphasizes the power and beauty that comes with the darkness, as opposed to the “light” or “prayers” of a more traditional worldview.


The song is a celebration of the dark and its ability to imbue those who embrace it with power and strength. The singer talks about how “dark clouds and storms on the rise” are nothing to fear, because “no need for light” is necessary with lady night by his side. The dark is a place where hope for the future can be abandoned, and people can be reborn in a new image, one free from “earthly shackles” and full of “wisdom.”


The singer is clear in his or her desire to be a part of the “undying horde” of lady night, and craves to “be reborn as a dark heart with a clear conscience.” This allows the singer to take their “rightful place” as “king”, someone who is fully in line with the power and allure of this darker realm.

Love that Swedish/Gothenburg feel on this track. Title speaks for itself

Музыканты видно что опытные, потрясающе. Чем-то напомнило самые первые альбомы Cradle of filth, когда у них еще было столько энергии. Буду следить за их творчеством.

Да как бы такие группы не получаются из неопытных.
