Son of God
Nurzery [Rhymes] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Leave my mind
Leave my head
In the core of my heart
Leave me dead

In faith my soul
Faith my grief
In the core of my belief
Drink the death

My miseries
Of false belief and die with me

See the cross in my dreams
Crowned with thorns as I cease
Dying slow he suffers loud
Son of God is dying proud

Angels die and devils raised
Son of God falls from grace




See the cross in my dreams
Crowned with thorns as I cease

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Son of God" by Nurzery [Rhymes] are haunting and deeply reflective, evoking a sense of desperation and pain. The opening lines, "Leave my mind, Leave my head, In the core of my heart, Leave me dead," convey a sense of being overwhelmed by thoughts and emotions, and a desire to escape from them. This is followed by the lines "In faith, my soul, Faith, my grief, In the core of my belief, Drink the death," which suggest an attempt to find solace in religion or spirituality, perhaps through a process of self-sacrifice.


The second verse speaks to the idea of atonement, with the lines "My miseries, Of false belief, and die with me." The singer seems to be wrestling with feelings of guilt or shame, and sees a way to alleviate this by embracing death. The references to the cross, with the lines "See the cross in my dreams, Crowned with thorns as I cease, Dying slow, he suffers loud, Son of God is dying proud," suggest a Christian context, with the singer identifying with the suffering of Jesus on the cross.


The final lines, "Angels die and devils raised, Son of God falls from grace, See the cross in my dreams, Crowned with thorns as I cease," convey a sense of despair and loss, with the singer feeling abandoned by both God and the devil. It's possible to interpret this by way of the existential view that, ultimately, we are all alone in the universe and must find our own way.
