Detonation
Pathos Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Comprimated state of minds, filling up your soul
Gene's determined right or wrong, ancient times ago
The battlefield war goes on, right inside your soul
Systematic mind reclusion, disorder in control...

The pressure is building up, detonations counting down
Self destructing acts are planning, futures now in soiled
Burning karma haunt your soul, euphoria take's control
Warhead power burns your veins, filling up your soul...

Cleanse your mind
Cleanse your soul...

Destination place unknown, history's coming close
Twisted thoughts reveals the pain, discovering the legacy




Shadows from a distant time, blocks the sun away
The pressure is slowly building up, detonation's counting down...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Pathos's song Detonation describe the internal struggles of an individual who is experiencing extreme pressure, confusion, and inner conflict. The opening lines describe how the individual's mind has become compressed and overwhelmed, with their genes dictating their actions and reactions based on ancient patterns. The battlefield is no longer external, but internal, as the person's mind is in a state of disorder and chaos. As the pressure builds up, they start to contemplate self-destructive actions, with their future becoming unclear and hazed in uncertainty.


The chorus of the song encourages the individual to cleanse their mind and soul, indicating that this is the only way to break free from the inner turmoil they are experiencing. As the song progresses, it becomes clear that the thoughts and pain the individual is experiencing are rooted in history and legacy. The shadows from a distant time indicate that their struggles are not just personal but also tied to larger cultural and societal issues. As the pressure continues to build up, the individual feels like they are nearing a tipping point, with the detonation countdown becoming ever closer.


Overall, Detonation is a song about the inner conflicts and struggles that people face in their lives, and the importance of taking the time to reflect, cleanse, and address the issues at hand before they reach a point of no return.
