Abomination
Silence The Messenger Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You've been entombed and hidden from this world
Under six feet of remorse for your actions.
Now don't you reach your hand up through that dirt,
Because I'm not bringing this one back to life.
I know I've been here before this is Hell.
And now you'll keep your head below the roots,
Do as I've done, and watch this all decay.
I've wasted so much time on what was inevitably a failure.
The taste of blood from damage done
Is a constant reminder of this overwhelming defeat.
And now you'll know what it's like to watch it all burn down.
By God you'll know what it's like to watch it burn...
And I've been here before this is Hell.
Do as I've done, and watch this all decay.
This is Hell... This is Hell...
And I'm never coming back.

I've left this dying, bleeding, wasted far behind me.
Now this abomination rests without life.
And now you're hidden from this world, abomination.
I've wasted so much time on what was dead from the start.
By God you'll know what it's like to watch it all burn down.

Watch as I embrace your absence with a grin on my face.
I've taught myself pain held too close, never again.




Now this abomination rests without a breath of life,
Now do as I've done and watch this decay.

Overall Meaning

The song "Abomination" by Silence The Messenger is a reflection on the aftermath of a toxic relationship that has left a person feeling defeated and broken. The lyrics paint a picture of being buried under a grave of remorse, guilt, and regret. The singer tells the other person not to try to reach out or come back, as they are not interested in resurrecting what has died. The refrain "This is Hell...This is Hell" emphasizes the feelings of being trapped and powerless to change the situation.


The song suggests that the singer has learned from their mistakes and wants to move on from the painful past. They have accepted that what they had was an abomination that was never going to work, and they have moved on. The line "Watch as I embrace your absence with a grin on my face" shows a sense of relief that the burden is lifted. They have let go of the pain and are no longer holding on to something that was never meant to be. In this sense, the song is about learning from past mistakes, accepting what is and moving on with a sense of newfound freedom.
