Insurrection
Nomad Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hungry eyes like a wind
Reproduction blows off naked fields slightly
Frozen mouths like a whirl
Gusty dance of angry speeches
Satiated areas of lit groans
Mourning flags
The grape picking is coming
There is cool rainy dusk
Lumped desires are biting
Dragged bodies of the torture are stinking
It's time to flog the enlightened renovation
Graves of battles and bowsRavens of whispers and dying
Ad infinitum I'm hitting the name
The anger has forgotten about the tornado on dry sands
Oh, skies of power
Oh, horizon of phantoms
Oh, you trampling my hope
Oh, you keeping silent in a treeHungry senses - the velvet
The fortress choir pulsates
Heart of love is like lakes
The power is flowing in
Echoes are loaded in cannons of freedom
Lines of unhappiness are in attributes of conquerors
Scandals dug in childhood up
Salutes oversounded because of dirties




"My friend demon has given wings to me.
Like a sage with his wisdom he has calculated the bloody trait of human applauses"

Overall Meaning

Nomad's song "Insurrection" is a somewhat surrealistic depiction of a revolution or insurrection, with the lyrics painting a vivid picture of a violent and chaotic scene. The opening lines describe "hungry eyes" and "reproduction" that "blows off naked fields slightly", which seems to suggest some kind of fertility symbol or explosive growth. This is followed by "frozen mouths" and an "angry dance of speeches", creating a sense of tension and frustration. The next lines describe areas of "lit groans" and "mourning flags", suggesting that violence and death are not far away.


The following lines about "grape picking" and "cool rainy dusk" create a sense of contrast with the violence and chaos that seemed to be suggested earlier. However, the next lines about "lumped desires biting" and "dragged bodies of torture stinking" quickly return to a darker tone, and the mention of "enlightened renovation" being flogged suggests that there is some kind of philosophical or political conflict underlying the insurrection. The mention of "graves of battles and bows" and "ravens of whispers and dying" further reinforces the sense of death and conflict.


The second half of the song is slightly more abstract and poetic, with mentions of "skies of power", "horizon of phantoms", and "trampling my hope". The final lines about a "friend demon" giving the singer wings and calculating the "bloody trait of human applauses" suggests that there is some kind of conflict between the singer's ideals and the reality of human nature.


Overall, "Insurrection" is a powerful and evocative song that captures the confusion, violence, and despair of a revolution or insurrection.
