Harvest
Terminus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sent forth from the earth, Devoid as bone
Grow and harvest, Recede the terran womb
Seeking to mend our cradle
Harvest, rejoice
Message from the void, turn tail and run
And rend the forest domes
Cannot bear this loss
May god have mercy on us all
The sun's rays wane
Seeking salvation in desperation
Rend flesh from bone
There is no murder I shy away from
Defend the forest domes
Gather your children to your side, in the sun
Like a forest is your child, in the sun
Tell them all they love will die, tell them why
Tell them it's not too late for today, one by one
Tell them to harvest and rejoice
In the sun
Unlock and decouple and then jettison
Defend the forest domes
I won't let it happen, death of mothers hope
Maintain the forest domes
The lyrics of Terminus's song "Harvest" depict a desperate situation in which humanity has left Earth and settled on a second home, but it is equally as barren and devoid as their previous one. The theme of growth and harvest is emphasized, as they seek to mend their cradle and find some semblance of hope in their new surroundings. However, amidst the jubilation, there is a deep sense of sorrow and loss that the singer cannot bear. They question whether God will show mercy on them as the sun's rays wane, symbolizing the diminishing hope and life force.
The second verse further explores the desperation and the willingness to do whatever it takes to survive. The singer speaks of seeking salvation in desperation, even if it means tearing flesh from bone and defending their forest domes at all costs. They are willing to commit any act, even murder, to protect the fragile ecosystem they have managed to create. They implore others to gather their children and explain to them the harsh reality that everything they love is bound to die, but it's not too late to make the most of today. The song ends with a determination to maintain the forest domes and not let the death of hope prevail.
Overall, "Harvest" portrays a sense of struggle, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of survival in a desolate environment. It explores the concept of sacrifice and the lengths one must go to protect the last remaining traces of life.
Line by Line Meaning
Floating in vacuum, Our second barren home
Existing in a vast emptiness, our desolate dwelling
Sent forth from the earth, Devoid as bone
Cast out from our planet, stripped of life's essence
Grow and harvest, Recede the terran womb
Nurture and cultivate, extracting from the earthly womb
Seeking to mend our cradle
Striving to repair our place of origin
Harvest, rejoice
Gather the fruits and celebrate
Message from the void, turn tail and run
Communication from emptiness, retreat and flee
And rend the forest domes
Tear apart the protective covers of nature
Amidst jubilation, my crestfallen soul
In the midst of celebration, my saddened spirit
Cannot bear this loss
Unable to endure this sorrow
May god have mercy on us all
May divinity show compassion towards every being
The sun's rays wane
The sun's light diminishes
Seeking salvation in desperation
Yearning for deliverance in a state of hopelessness
Rend flesh from bone
Tear apart flesh and bones
There is no murder I shy away from
I am not hesitant to commit any act of killing
Defend the forest domes
Protect the enclosures of the woods
Gather your children to your side, in the sun
Bring your offspring close to you, under the sunlight
Like a forest is your child, in the sun
Your child is akin to a forest, basking in sunlight
Tell them all they love will die, tell them why
Inform them that everything they cherish will perish, explain the reason
Tell them it's not too late for today, one by one
Convey that there is still time for today, individually
Tell them to harvest and rejoice
Urge them to gather and celebrate the yield
In the sun
Under the warmth and brightness of the sun
Unlock and decouple and then jettison
Release and detach, then discard
Defend the forest domes
Protect the enclosures of the woods
I won't let it happen, death of mothers hope
I won't permit its occurrence, the destruction of maternal optimism
Maintain the forest domes
Sustain the enclosures of the woods
