Timeless Sands
Poema Arcanus Lyrics

The song "Timeless Sands" by Poema Arcanus revolves around the theme of loneliness and the passage of time. The opening lines, "Walk alone for years, through timeless sands" describes a person walking through the desert for a long time, indicating a sense of isolation and abandonment. The singer seems to be burdened by the sun, which can be considered as a symbol of life, as it's constantly shining and can be exhausting to endure. The shame that marks the path suggests that the singer is carrying some emotional baggage, which could be a regret from their past.

The second verse, "Life lies beneath, under timeless sands, barefoot on warm blood, sorrows start to grow" reflects on the fragility and mortality of life. The sands represent the significant passage of time, as they keep everything that once existed under them, buried until eternity. The warm blood could represent the essence of life that is flowing out of the singer, while the sorrows growing within could refer to the regrets and pain that come with the maturation of life. The chorus, "Was my rest a sin? The weight of timeless sands I'd never felt, now is too late for me! Timeless sands ... bury me deeply..." implies that the singer has already lived a long life and is now reflecting on whether their life was a waste or not, and that the sands will now engulf them, burying them beneath.
