Forsaken One
Septris Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A void shell, a blank mask behind which the forsaken cries
Forgotten, exiled and fled by the ones you loved most
Alone with no answers you became nothing but a ghost
Hide behind fake smiles, small lies, you need it to protect yourself
From this world you're trapped in, deceiving everyone else
Exploited, exhausted, a shadow of what you once were
But I see your rage
I hear your cry for help
Like a bird in cage
Trapped behind bars made out of your own despair
Fly, fly through the skies
Forsaken one
You are not alone
Now, open your eyes
Awakened one
Make this world your own
Stand, stand up and fight
Forsaken one
Destroy this shadow
Walk towards the light
Awakened one
Become your hero
You were cast away, hidden, drowning in an ocean of fear
Trapped between two rogue waves, you scream but nobody can ear
You're sinking, fading, slowly approaching the abyss
Crushed under the pressure, a soul than nobody will miss
But I see your rage
I hear your cry for help
Like a bird in cage
Trapped behind bars made out of your own despair
But I see your rage
I hear your cry for help
Like a bird in cage
Trapped behind bars made out of your own despair
Fly, fly through the skies
Forsaken one
You are not alone
Now, open your eyes
Awakened one
Make this world your own
Stand, stand up and fight
Forsaken one
Destroy this shadow
Walk towards the light
Awakened one
Become your hero
Fly, fly through the skies
Forsaken one
You are not alone
Now, open your eyes
Awakened one
Make this world your own
Stand, stand up and fight
Forsaken one
Destroy this shadow
Walk towards the light
Awakened one
Become your hero
The song "Forsaken One" by Septris is about someone who has been abandoned and left alone in their misery. They have been broken, destroyed, and buried in their own lies, to the point where they have become nothing but a ghost of their former self. They hide behind fake smiles and small lies to protect themselves from the world that has trapped them. They are exploited and exhausted, and feel like a disease that has no cure.
However, the singer sees the rage and cries for help from this person, who is like a bird trapped in a cage made of their own despair. The singer urges this person to fight, to awaken and make this world their own. They are not alone, and they can destroy this shadow and walk towards the light of becoming their own hero.
The lyrics are a powerful reminder that even in our darkest moments, we are not alone and we can fight to overcome our struggles. It is a call to action for those who have been forsaken, to rise up and take control of their lives.

A void shell, a blank mask behind which the forsaken cries
You portray a blank façade, concealing the agonizing pain you endure daily
Forgotten, exiled and fled by the ones you loved most

Alone with no answers you became nothing but a ghost
You have become a mere shadow of your former self, defenseless and without any solutions to your struggles

To hide your vulnerability, you pretend to be content, and resort to tiny white lies, to escape the perils of the world
From this world you're trapped in, deceiving everyone else
Struggling with your own problems, you wear a mask of deceit to the rest of the world
Exploited, exhausted, a shadow of what you once were
With everything taken from you, drained and devoid of energy, you are now a mere fragment of who you used to be
A disease you conceived and for which there is no cure
You developed your own internal disease which is beyond cure, weighing you down
But I see your rage
Despite all this, I recognize that you possess an underlying fury
I hear your cry for help
I can perceive your silent pleas for assistance
Like a bird in cage
You are figuratively trapped like a bird in a cage
Trapped behind bars made out of your own despair
Your self-guilt and helplessness are the bars that keep you trapped
Fly, fly through the skies
Break out from these patterns and fly high
Forsaken one
Stop feeling deserted, left out and unwanted
You are not alone
Recognize that you are not the only one struggling and there are people who can help you
Now, open your eyes
Become more aware of your surroundings and accept the present as it is
Awakened one
Embrace the realization that you've been awakened to a new world and new possibilities
Make this world your own
Find purpose and create a new life for yourself
Stand, stand up and fight
Stand up for yourself and fight for what you deserve
Destroy this shadow
Eradicate the darkness that's been holding you captive
Walk towards the light
Move towards the light of positivity, to break free from negativity
Become your hero
Be the hero of your own journey, shape your own destiny and thrive
