Overall Meaning

Sonitus Vir's "Nocturne" is a song with lyrics that express a feeling of dependency that is difficult to overcome. The phrase "once you desire something, you cannot undesire it" suggests that once a person has become emotionally attached to something, it becomes very hard to let it go, even if that thing may be causing them pain. The singer reveals that they feel a sense of security from being under someone's "wings," and even though they know they may be taking too much, they still need it.


The lyrics may reflect a relationship in which the singer is relying heavily on the other person to provide comfort, protection or a sense of purpose. The singer may feel trapped in this dynamic, unable to break free from the dependency theyā€™ve created. The song's slow pace and the use of minor chords contribute to a sense of sadness or melancholy, adding to the feeling of being trapped. The music creates a haunting and mystical atmosphere that complements the lyrics' introspection and self-examination.
