Tabula Rasa
Nominon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The abstract absurdity to get control of my dreams
Shattered thoughts inflict with reality
My mind sets off on a journey on its own into misery
Anger, aggression out of control
The mind living on its own
Can never be saved
Surrender my will, I'm about to explode
How can I bear this horrible truth?
Something I can't understand
So many things I want you to know
Enemies behind every face
Every one wants to see me dead
Spinning thoughts in an endless loop
A ticking bomb waiting to explode
So many things I can never undo
A victim of my own dark sickness
An outcome no one ever could forsee
It was not me but a monster inside
Paranoia desperation set free
If you for a while could be me
So that I clearly could see
So many things I didn't know I was able to do
Like the murder of you
Can't repair what I caused
A horror world swirls around
An escape from disillusion
Please hand me the solution
No turning back, for once I'm clear in my head
Can only end this by my own hand
Is this how I can repay my deeds?
This is what I can do at least
The page I can not reset, my future lies after death
The song "Tabula Rasa" by Nominon is all about the inner struggle of a person who is dealing with a dark sickness. The singer talks about how their mind is free to wander and take them on a journey of misery. They are unable to control their thoughts, which is leading to anger and aggression. The singer expresses their desperation to find a way out of this situation and to find a solution to their problems. The lyrics describe the feeling of being trapped in an endless loop of negative thoughts and emotions that are making it difficult for them to move forward in life. The song talks about the powerlessness of the singer in the face of the monster that is inside of them, and their deep regret for the things they have done.
The lyrics are loaded with symbolism, and there is an underlying message about how our past actions can lead to irreversible consequences. The singer talks of how desires for revenge can ultimately lead to more pain and suffering, and how it is impossible to undo certain actions once they are taken. The feeling of being trapped and powerless is palpable throughout the song, and the lyrics leave us with a bleak resolution that speaks to the ultimate fate of everyone - death.
Overall, "Tabula Rasa" is a powerful and haunting song that delves into the human psyche and explores the complex and often contradictory nature of our thoughts and actions.
Line by Line Meaning
A blank page to form and fill
Starting with a clean slate to create something new
The abstract absurdity to get control of my dreams
Trying to make sense of the randomness in dreams to gain control over them
Shattered thoughts inflict with reality
Confusion and disarray in the mind affecting how one perceives reality
My mind sets off on a journey on its own into misery
The mind going on a dark and depressing journey without consent
Anger, aggression out of control
Uncontrollable anger and aggression taking over
The mind living on its own
The mind functioning independently without input from the person
Can never be saved
Hopeless situation that cannot be improved
Just condemned my-self to death
Feeling like there is no way out except for death
Surrender my will, I'm about to explode
Giving up and feeling overwhelmed
How can I bear this horrible truth?
Unable to cope with a difficult reality
Something I can't understand
Unable to comprehend a certain situation
So many things I want you to know
Desire to communicate important things to others
Enemies behind every face
Feeling like everyone is against you
Every one wants to see me dead
Paranoia that everyone is out to kill you
Spinning thoughts in an endless loop
Repetitive and obsessive thoughts that won't stop
A ticking bomb waiting to explode
Feeling like a dangerous situation is about to occur
So many things I can never undo
Regret over past actions that cannot be changed
A victim of my own dark sickness
Feeling like you are suffering from your own internal darkness
An outcome no one ever could forsee
An unexpected and unforeseeable result
It was not me but a monster inside
Describing negative behavior as something outside of oneself
Paranoia desperation set free
Panic and hopelessness taking over
If you for a while could be me
Wishing others could experience what you are going through
So that I clearly could see
Hoping for better understanding and clarity
So many things I didn't know I was able to do
Surprised by one's own capability for negative actions
Like the murder of you
Giving an extreme example of negative actions one is capable of
Can't repair what I caused
Unable to fix damage already done
A horror world swirls around
Feeling trapped in a scary and hopeless environment
An escape from disillusion
Desire to break free from negative and misguided thoughts
Please hand me the solution
Asking for help and guidance
No turning back, for once I'm clear in my head
Decisive but accepting of the consequences
Can only end this by my own hand
Taking personal responsibility for the outcome
Is this how I can repay my deeds?
Questioning if a certain outcome is justifiable
This is what I can do at least
Feeling limited in ability to change the situation
The page I can not reset, my future lies after death
Coming to terms with the permanence of certain consequences
