Dark Passenger
Ravenscode Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You'll never see this side in any mirror
It's a face that You see locked away
For all therse years
Scratching at all the locks
Searching endlessly to find a key
Never had a moments rest
Cuz I know that he's
Along for the ride
Wherever I go
This feeling inside
Wish that I didn't know
Well I can hold him off
But it's starting show
My Dark Passenger
He's all I've ever
Knowing is a fallacy
And nothing motivates quiet like fear
When your afraid to ask the question
"Why we're here?"
Don't even try to hide
Cuz he always knows where you've been
About time that you learn
You're not alone cuz' he's
Along for the ride
Wherever I go
This feeling inside
Wish that I didn't know
Well I can hold him off
But it's starting show
My Dark Passenger
He's out of control
Along for the ride
Wherever I go
This feeling inside
Wish that I didn't know
Well I can hold him off
But it's starting show
My Dark Passenger
He's out of control
The lyrics to Ravenscode’s song ‘Dark Passenger’ convey a sense of a hidden persona or a ‘dark passenger’ within oneself that is often concealed from others. The opening lines, "Part of me you'll never know, you'll never see this side in any mirror", suggests that there is a hidden aspect of the self that the singer is afraid to reveal. He is aware of it, but he keeps it locked away, as it might be something he is ashamed of. The lines "Scratching at all the locks, searching endlessly to find a key, never had a moment's rest, cuz I know that he's" suggest an internal struggle and an unending quest to understand this darker self.
The chorus of the song emphasizes that the dark passenger is always with the singer, wherever he goes. The lyrics "Along for the ride, wherever I go, this feeling inside, wish that I didn't know" express the frustration and fear that the singer feels towards this darker self that is always present. He tries to hold it off, but it is starting to show, and he is losing control over it.
The song suggests that everyone has a dark side or a hidden self that they struggle to control. The lyrics "Knowing is a fallacy, and nothing motivates quiet like fear, when you're afraid to ask the question, 'Why we're here?'" suggest that sometimes it is better to not know, as fear can motivate and drive individuals towards seeking answers. In the end, the singer realizes that he is not alone in this struggle as the dark passenger is present in everyone.

Part of me You'll never know
There is a part of me that you will never understand
You'll never see this side in any mirror
This side of me cannot be seen in any reflection
It's a face that You see locked away
This side of me is hidden away and never shown to others
For all therse years
I have kept this hidden for a long time
Scratching at all the locks
I am desperate to reveal this hidden side of me
Searching endlessly to find a key
I am constantly searching for a way to unlock and express this side of me
Never had a moments rest
I have never been able to relax and let this side of me out
Cuz I know that he's
Because I am aware that this hidden side of me exists
Along for the ride
This side of me is always present and involved in everything I do
Wherever I go
This hidden side of me is always with me no matter where I am
This feeling inside
I am constantly battling with this hidden side of me
Wish that I didn't know
I wish I could just forget about this hidden side of me
Well I can hold him off
I can keep this hidden side of me under control
But it's starting show
I am struggling to keep this hidden side of me from revealing itself
My Dark Passenger
This hidden side of me is my 'dark passenger'
He's all I've ever
This hidden side of me is a big part of who I am
Knowing is a fallacy
The idea of fully understanding this hidden side of me is unrealistic
And nothing motivates quiet like fear
Fear is a powerful motivator for keeping this hidden side of me under control
When your afraid to ask the question
When I am too afraid to face this hidden side of me
"Why we're here?"
Asking the bigger questions about life and my purpose is daunting and brings up my hidden side
Don't even try to hide
I cannot even attempt to hide this hidden side of me
Cuz he always knows where you've been
This hidden side of me is always aware of where I have been and what I am doing
About time that you learn
It is time for me to finally accept this hidden side of me
You're not alone cuz' he's
I am not alone in having this hidden side, as it is a common experience
He's out of control
I am struggling to keep this hidden side of me in check and it is beginning to take over
