Solitary World
Thalion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Look the signs
Don't let the candle die out
The flames of a cry
Don't let me surrender
I can't learn
From the mistakes of my life
My thoughts fly with this madness
Like a scream
A strange voice arises in the silence
Calling for me
I want to fall in the chasm
Searching for freedom
There are tears
In my eyes again
All there I'm looking for
It's something
To relief my pain
Take a little part of my soul
And try my feelings then you will know
I'm living here
In this solitary world
I'm guilt of my sins
My thoughts are disturbed
I can't live any more
My hopes won't return
I felt in mortal sleep
I can't open my eyes
I fear what I can see
And nowhere to hide
Like a boy scared in the city
Longs to scream I am here
Asking help from the people
But nobody understands
The lyrics to Thalion's song Solitary World speak of a sense of hopelessness and loneliness, as the singer grapples with their own mistakes and the overwhelming nature of the universe. The opening lines urge the listener to pay attention to the signs, to not let their own light die out. This can be interpreted as a plea to not give up on life, even when times are tough. The singer then goes on to describe their own struggles, feeling lost and adrift in the vast universe.
The chorus speaks to the singer's search for relief from their pain, something to ease the sense of solitude they feel. The line "take a little part of my soul, and try my feelings then you will know" is particularly poignant, as it speaks to the desire for understanding and empathy from others. The second verse continues this theme of feeling trapped and hopeless, with the singer describing their own guilt and their inability to escape their own thoughts. The closing lines, "like a boy scared in the city...asking help from the people, but nobody understands" speak to the isolating nature of mental health struggles and the difficulty of finding support from others.

Look the signs
Pay attention to the signs around you
Don't let the candle die out
Don't give up hope and let your light fade away
The flames of a cry
The intensity of one's emotions expressed through tears
Don't let me surrender
Don't let me give up and lose the fight
I can't learn
I am unable to learn from past experiences
From the mistakes of my life
From the errors made over the course of my existence
Lost in the universe
Feeling disconnected from the world and unsure of your place in it
My thoughts fly with this madness
My mind is consumed with chaos and irrationality
Like a scream
Expressed with the same intensity as a cry for help
A strange voice arises in the silence
An unusual voice speaks in the quietness
Calling for me
Summoning me towards something
I want to fall in the chasm
I want to give in to the darkness and fall into emptiness
Searching for freedom
Longing for liberation from whatever is causing distress
There are tears
One's eyes are filled with tears of sadness
In my eyes again
Once more, I am experiencing the overwhelming emotion of tears
All there I'm looking for
The only thing I am searching for
It's something
It is anything that can alleviate my pain and distress
To relief my pain
To ease the suffering felt within
Take a little part of my soul
If you were to understand how I was feeling
And try my feelings then you will know
If you were to experience what I feel
I'm living here
I exist here in this world
In this solitary world
In this world where I feel alone and isolated
I'm guilt of my sins
I feel responsible for my wrongdoings
My thoughts are disturbed
My mind is troubled and uneasy
I can't live any more
I can no longer continue in this state of being
My hopes won't return
I've given up on hope returning
I felt in mortal sleep
I fell into a state of unconsciousness and death
I can't open my eyes
I am unable to see and face my reality
I fear what I can see
I am afraid to acknowledge what I can perceive
And nowhere to hide
There is no escape from my current state
Like a boy scared in the city
A child who is frightened and feels helpless while surrounded by the unfamiliar city environment
Longs to scream I am here
Longing to be acknowledged or noticed
Asking help from the people
Requesting aid from anyone who can offer it
But nobody understands
No one can comprehend the distress and turmoil within

Finalmente achei essa música, que ouvi anos atrás. Fiquei impressionado de uma banda com participações de André Matos e Michael Kiske produzir uma faixa com um solo de baixo totalmente fora da tonalidade da música, aos 2:30. Bizarro.
