Reflections
The Prophecy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Though your wall erode and crash upon this floor
You hold on to hope but still you must endure

No, don′t lose hope you walk alone...

You reach your journey's end but can you comprehend
Your road goes ever on where the darkness never ends
No, don′t lose hope
Don't let go
When it takes it's toll on your threshold

Look back on this life when all you believed was a lie
Follow my voice, I take you through the night
Follow my voice, I take you to the other side

No, don′t lose hope




Don′t let go
When it takes it's toll on your threshold

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Prophecy's song "Reflections" paint a picture of a person who is enduring a difficult time in their life. The opening line, "Though your wall erode and crash upon this floor," suggests that this person's emotional walls have come crashing down, leaving them vulnerable and exposed. However, despite their struggles, they hold on to hope and continue to persevere.


The chorus reassures the listener that they are not alone and encourages them to keep going despite the darkness they may feel around them. The repetition of "No, don't lose hope" and "Don't let go" emphasizes the importance of resilience and determination in the face of adversity.


The final verse takes a reflective turn, with the singer encouraging the listener to look back on their life and recognize moments when they may have been living in a false reality. The lines "When all you believed was a lie" suggest that the person has gone through a period of introspection and has emerged with a more realistic outlook on life. The song then ends on a hopeful note, with the singer promising to guide the listener "to the other side," implying that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Still one of the best album opening riffs in metal history. And they repeat it on the outro of the final song. This album is perfect.

My first introduction to Candlemass back in 1993. Black Sabbath has been my band since 1983 so of course I embraced Candlemass. One of the best concept albums of all time. Love how the end meets the beginning. Never ending flow!!
