Atlantis
Thirdmoon Lyrics

I drown in bloody hands
I feel overwhelmed and helpless, like I am being suffocated by negative and violent influences around me

As I bury the withers of human kind
While I witness the decline and destruction of humanity, I am forced to confront the harsh reality of our own impermanence and mortality

Cold but fluid the spiral stygian tears
The tears shed for the dead are both cold and fluid, emphasizing their essence as both physical and emotional manifestations of grief and loss

The birds once wept in waters still blind
Even nature and animals share in the suffering of those who are lost or gone, and their sorrow is profound and unceasing

Sombre the spectrum glows in the snow
The colors of life and existence have faded to a dull and melancholic state, reflecting the bleakness of the world around us

Nothing but dust bleeds on your shoulders
All that remains of us after we are gone is dust, and this fact is both tragic and inevitable

Thine bizzare twilight - still asleep
The surreal and dreamlike quality of our existence contrasts with the reality of death and decay which lurks beneath the surface

But crimson scars echoes through silver seas
The lasting impact of our actions and our suffering carries on far beyond our limited lifetimes, and echoes throughout the vastness of the universe

Unending - Still your God -
Despite the seeming chaos and futility of existence, the concept of God endures as a symbol of hope and meaning

Uncertainly expands your tears
The uncertainty of life and what lies beyond it makes emotions all the more intense and overwhelming

Dead rain falls unto saphire chair
Even the most beautiful and divine aspects of existence are tainted by death and loss, as exemplified by the image of a once-gleaming chair now receiving only dead rain

Standing on horizon like tears in God
The horizon, which represents the vast expanse of possibility and potential, is itself imbued with sorrow and longing, like a tear from a divine force

Dream in cold embrace - Desire what will be
In the face of loss and despair, it is tempting to retreat into a dreamlike state of denial or resignation, but ultimately we must strive for what we hope and desire in the future

Clouds in spirits of aeons drown in thy last breath
Even the timeless and infinite cycles of nature and the universe are affected by the finite and fleeting nature of human existence, as evinced by the drowning of spirits in the last breath of an individual

The sun crimson explores
The vivid and intense colors of the sun are symbolic of both life and death, and the inherent contradictions that mark our existence

Me in mourning of her departure gold
The loss of something valuable and bright is a common theme throughout this song, and here it is exemplified by the sorrow surrounding the departure of the sun's golden light

The divine kind that drowns
Even the gods and divine forces are subject to the same vulnerabilities and frailties as humans, and their suffering is all the more tragic for their apparent power and omnipotence

In second art surrounds me
Art and creativity offer a temporary escape from the harsh realities of existence, but this respite is temporary and fleeting

The horizon bleeds, the sun is dead
The beauty and wonder of the world is marred by death and decay, and the realization of this fact can be overwhelming and devastating

And still the ATLANTIS cries
The legendary city of Atlantis, which represents a utopian ideal that is ever out of reach, continues to cry out for recognition and redemption, even in the face of inevitable ruin and destruction
