Truth
Sacrifice Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Left for the young? Oblivion has just begun,
Can this be real? You've left wounds that cannot heal
Problems to solve with with no way to resolve
The truth of life to come cannot be concealed
A wicked world takes hold, the end begins
The civilization corrodes, drowning in sin
Blinded by the cause, can't see tomorrows flaws
This way of life just does not seem right
A captive in my mind, someday we will find
That not all is truth of life, they will steal the youth
The truth of life to come cannot be concealed
A wicked world takes hold, the end begins
The civilization corrodes, drowning in sin
No I will not follow
The truth has changed me
The well of life is running dry
No lies
Not far away we will find
Ambivalence tearing our minds
I see right through their liesDespised
We play the fools, the retarded make the rules
Can this be truth? We slip into their noose
The poison they feed is something many need
To carry on as thid new day dawns
The truth of life to come, it must be revealed
A wicked world takes hold, the end begins
We watch our lives corrode, drowning in sin
The lyrics of "Truth" by Sacrifice tackle the grim reality of a corrupt society that is leading towards its inevitable destruction. The singer questions if his pronouncements of the hopelessness of the future for the young generation are real or not. He can see the signs of the downfall of civilization, the corrosion of morality, and the proliferation of sins, but the people seem blinded by their cause and cannot see the flaws of tomorrow. The young generation would suffer the most as their light will be stolen by the wicked world that has taken hold.
The lyrics express the singer's unwillingness to follow the path of ignorance and deception created by those in power. He has seen through their lies and despises how they manipulate others into playing the fool. The well of life is running dry, and the world is drowning in sin; those in power rely on this poison to remain in control. The song's overall message is bleak, emphasizing the urgency of revealing the truth of life to come to inspire positive change.
