Feeble Soul
Reflexion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feeble soul will rise and bloom
When the dark descends
The seducing torment of pain
Wakes the spirit untamed
Tonight there’s nothing to lose
Or share the trail of everlasting gloom
The lonesome one in the arms of darkness
The ray of light that hurts like hell
Once the feast begins
There is no simples truth
And the light of day
Ruins the glory of rain
The song "Feeble Soul" by Reflexion is a hauntingly beautiful piece that delves into the theme of overcoming one's inner demons. The lyrics suggest that the singer is struggling with feelings of weakness and vulnerability, but something within them is urging them to rise up and persevere. The line "wash away all the weakness" hints at a desire to be cleansed of these negative emotions and become stronger. The following phrase "feeble soul will rise and bloom" paints a picture of new growth and potential.
As the song progresses, we get a sense of the struggle the singer is facing. They are being tempted by the "seducing torment of pain" and are feeling untamed. However, they are determined to press on, believing that they have nothing to lose. The next lines introduce the idea of burning in the flames of unpredictable truth or sharing the trail of everlasting gloom. This could be interpreted as a choice between facing one's fears and growing stronger or giving in to despair.
The final stanza takes a slightly different turn, speaking of a "lonesome one in the arms of darkness" and a "ray of light that hurts like hell." These images could represent the paradoxical nature of healing - sometimes it can feel more painful before it starts to feel better. The final line "ruins the glory of rain" could be seen as a metaphor for how the light of day can expose and invalidate our struggles, making them feel less significant. All in all, "Feeble Soul" is a poetic and introspective piece that encourages listeners to find strength in the face of adversity.
Line by Line Meaning
Wash away all the weakness
Eliminate all the frailties and shortcomings
Feeble soul will rise and bloom
A weak and fragile spirit will emerge stronger and flourish
When the dark descends
When the atmosphere becomes somber and gloomy
The seducing torment of pain
The enticing and overpowering anguish
Wakes the spirit untamed
Awakens the wild and uncontrolled soul
Tonight there’s nothing to lose
There is no risk or consequence for actions taken tonight
Burn in the flames of unpredictable truth
Experience the intense pain of uncertain reality
Or share the trail of everlasting gloom
Alternatively live a life of permanent depression
The lonesome one in the arms of darkness
The solitary individual embraced by obscurity
The ray of light that hurts like hell
The beam of brightness that causes excruciating pain
Once the feast begins
Once the celebration starts
There is no simples truth
There is not a single straightforward fact
And the light of day
The sunshine that reveals everything clearly
Ruins the glory of rain
Undoes the beauty and magnificence of precipitation
