Now It's Dark
Siva Six Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now it's dark
Eyes apart for the sake of pain
Need to lurk again

Now it's dark
Used to be my heart
Nothing left, nothing's right
Nothing to believe or fight

Now it's dark
Lights dim black
Never to believe to light
Dweller in a vast lie

Now it's dark
Lights burn black
Empty skin to touch
Two zeroes to collapse

Now it's dark
Now it's dark

Now it's dark
Need to lurk
A need to feel not
And darkness fills my lungs

Now it's dark
Sight clear, black
I can understand the art
Of destruction of the heart

Now it's dark
Now it's dark

Now it's dark
Now it's dark




Now it's dark
Now it's dark

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Siva Six's song "Now It's Dark" express deep feelings of pain, emptiness, and void. The opening line "Now it's dark" metaphorically refers to the darkness and void that has taken over the singer's life. The line "Eyes apart for the sake of pain" could imply the individual's inability to face the reality of their situation, as they try to distance themselves from the pain of their own existence. Then, the need to lurk again represents the individual's desire to retreat back into their shell.


The individual proceeds to address their present emotional state, stating that their heart "used to be" open but now there's nothing left to fight or believe. Everything in their life has turned upside down, and the lights that used to provide illumination have dimmed, leaving them in a life filled with lies and darkness. They describe their skin as "empty" and their being as having nothing left to offer. Finally, the song concludes with the singer lamenting about the darkness that has taken over their lungs and seemingly accepting their current state of emptiness and destruction.
