ORION
Salamandra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From way back fight and wrestle face to face
Light at the end of
Way bringing death may not just be the case
Hatred and love have
Been settled in all human hearts for long
Sorrow and life go
Death or glory leave
A victorious taste
Tears of happiness
Become bitter of pains
Faded is glory
And you see star above you it's a sign
Envy fills your heart
And they say truth is hiding in the wine
Death or glory leave
A victorious taste
Tears of happiness
Become bitter of pains
I see orion shining high
Seems so close but still so faraway
Our lives are passing by
Even you have a place of your own up there
When ? did you ever tell me?
The lyrics to Salamandra's song "Orion" delve into themes of conflict, duality, and the complexities of human emotions. The song explores the eternal struggle between opposing forces, represented by water and fire. These forces have been locked in battle since ancient times, constantly fighting and wrestling face to face. However, the light at the end of this eternal struggle does not necessarily bring death as one might expect. The lyrics suggest that there is more to this conflict than meets the eye.
The song then delves into the concept of hatred and love as fundamental aspects of the human experience. These emotions have been ingrained in human hearts for a long time, coexisting despite their inherent contradictions. Similarly, sorrow and life are intertwined, regardless of whether they are perceived as right or wrong. The lyrics imply that these dichotomies are essential aspects of human existence.
The chorus reflects on the fleeting nature of glory and the bittersweet experience of happiness. The victorious taste of death or glory is juxtaposed with tears of happiness that later become bitter with pain. This suggests the transient nature of success and the complexity of emotions that accompany it.
In the final lines, the lyrics shift to the image of Orion, a prominent constellation in the night sky. Orion is described as shining high yet remaining distant. This metaphor reflects on how our lives pass by quickly, even with the vastness of the universe above us. The singer questions when Orion, representing a higher power or destiny, ever revealed their plans or purpose. This line reflects a sense of longing for guidance and understanding in the face of life's uncertainties.
Overall, "Orion" explores the eternal conflict between opposing forces, the coexistence of contradictory emotions, and the desire for meaning and direction in life.

Feelings of jealousy overwhelm you
And they say truth is hiding in the wine
It is believed that the truth can be found within intoxicating beverages
I see Orion shining high
I observe the constellation Orion shining brightly in the sky
Seems so close but still so faraway
Although it appears near, it remains distant
Our lives are passing by
Our lives are slipping away
Even you have a place of your own up there
Even you, who I address directly, have a distinct place in the heavens
When ? did you ever tell me?
At what moment did you ever inform me of this?
