A New Beginning
Niharp Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Into this world of decay
The way you chose a dead end
Building path to the unknown
Freezing ways of sealing hope

Life whispers oblivion
Death laughing so cold
Painful stabs of desireh
Kill the existence of love

Drift through the sea of illusion
Drowning your mind in confusion
And the longer is the wait
Closer it gets to begin with the end

The bolts strike the earth
Charging all that's dead
Waking creation of life

So live to wait
Or die in vain
While bad luck points the way

With all the scars of tomorrow
Joining the past and it's sorrow
Though for forever in disgrace
My soul won't be given another chance

The bolts strike the earth
Charging all that's dead
Waking creation of life

So live to wait
Or die in vain
While bad luck points the way

Or try to hide




What flows inside
The beginning of the new

Overall Meaning

beginning


The song A New Beginning by Niharp speaks about the struggle we all face in life, trying to make the right choices while battling with the fear of failure and the unknown. The opening lines, "Into this world of decay, The way you chose a dead end," suggests the singer is addressing someone who has lost hope and has given up on finding a positive outcome to their situation. However, the following lines, "Building path to the unknown, Freezing ways of sealing hope," suggests that the singer is urging them to keep trying, to take a path that is untried and not to give up hope, but to keep moving forward despite the fear and uncertainty.


The chorus, "So live to wait, Or die in vain, While bad luck points the way," is a warning to those who might be content to wait and let fate decide their future. It suggests that we need to take control of our lives, to make our own destiny, and not just sit back and let bad luck dictate our future. The lines, "Drift through the sea of illusion, Drowning your mind in confusion, And the longer is the wait, Closer it gets to begin with the end," suggest that we can't just drift through life, waiting for something to happen. We need to take action, to make choices, and to take risks.


The final lines, "Or try to hide, What flows inside, The beginning of the new beginning," suggest that we need to be brave, to face our fears and to take the first step towards a new beginning. We need to embrace the unknown, let go of the past, and start afresh to create a new future.


Line by Line Meaning

Into this world of decay
The singer is starting off about the decaying world they currently live in, setting the scene for the rest of the song.


The way you chose a dead end
This line is talking about someone who has chosen a path that leads nowhere, which is like a dead end. It's setting up the idea of life choices and their consequences.


Building path to the unknown
The singer describes the process of paving a path to the unknown, which could mean taking risks and exploring uncharted territory. This could be seen as hopeful or dangerous, depending on the interpretation.


Freezing ways of sealing hope
Here, the idea of sealing hope is presented as something negative, like a barrier. The use of 'freezing' seems to suggest that this is something that's been done purposely and gradually over time.


Life whispers oblivion
This is a difficult line to interpret exactly, but it could be seen as referring to the inevitability of death or the fleeting nature of life. The use of 'whispers' adds to the sense of impermanence.


Death laughing so cold
This line describes death as being almost personified -- it's laughing in a cold and heartless way. Once again, there's a sense of coldness and emptiness being present in the world.


Painful stabs of desire
Desire is often portrayed in a positive light, but here it's described as being painful, perhaps suggesting that it's an unattainable goal. This is another line that could have multiple meanings depending on the listener's interpretation.


Kill the existence of love
Here, the artist is talking about something (or someone) that's able to kill love. This could be interpreted in several ways -- perhaps it's a person or a force that's preventing love from flourishing, or it could be seen as a personal mindset that's preventing the artist from experiencing love.


Drift through the sea of illusion
The artist here talks about drifting through a 'sea of illusion,' which could mean moving through life without a clear sense of purpose or direction. The use of 'illusion' implies that what the person is experiencing may not be entirely real.


Drowning your mind in confusion
This line is about feeling overwhelmed and confused by the sea of illusion. The artist is using vivid imagery to describe a sense of being lost or disoriented.


And the longer is the wait
Here, the singer is talking about time passing -- the longer you wait for something to happen, the closer whatever you're waiting for gets.


Closer it gets to begin with the end
This is a very poetic way of saying that all things must end. As time passes, the final outcome becomes more certain and begins to approach.


The bolts strike the earth
This line is a metaphor, describing the sudden arrival of something powerful that will affect the world (in this case, through the image of lightning bolts striking the earth).


Charging all that's dead
By charging all that's dead, there's a suggestion that something has the power to reanimate what was once lifeless. It could be seen as a message of hope or rebirth.


Waking creation of life
This line is very similar to the previous one, but goes a step further to describe how that 'charging' or energy can actually bring about new life and creation.


So live to wait
This line is a call to action -- urging the listener to 'live to wait' for whatever it is they're waiting for, rather than giving up or becoming passive. It could be interpreted as a message of hope or resilience.


Or die in vain
Here, the opposite choice is presented -- to die in vain. This line acknowledges that sometimes things don't work out, and that there's a risk involved in trying to achieve something.


While bad luck points the way
The singer describes feeling like they're being guided by 'bad luck,' which adds a sense of pessimism and fatalism to the lyrics.


With all the scars of tomorrow
This line is about how the scars or wounds of today will affect the future. It could also be interpreted as a metaphor for the emotional scars that people carry with them from past experiences.


Joining the past and it's sorrow
Here, the artist is acknowledging the role of the past in shaping the present and future. There's a sense of sadness or regret that's attached to the past.


Though for forever in disgrace
This is an interesting line that's hard to parse exactly. The sense seems to be that no matter what happens, the artist will always be in a state of disgrace or something negative.


My soul won't be given another chance
Here, the artist is talking about losing an opportunity or a chance. They feel as though their soul won't have another chance to achieve whatever it is they're trying to achieve.


Or try to hide
This line is about the idea of trying to hide what's inside -- perhaps talking about emotions or desires that are difficult to express. It could also suggest that there's something shameful or negative that the person is trying to conceal.


What flows inside
This is a continuation of the previous line -- what exactly is flowing inside the person? There's a sense of something intense or powerful that's being discussed.


The beginning of the new
The final line of the song is hopeful -- 'the beginning of the new' suggests that there's a fresh start or something new that's on the horizon. It's a hopeful note to end on after all the struggle and pain that's been discussed in the previous verses.
