Cowardly warrior vents his rage
This lust for blood cannot be appeased
What fickle angels are we
Our divided brothers we slay
His lust will erase all




Overall Meaning

The song "Aries" by Unearth is a heavy metal piece that deals with the idea of human nature and the consequences of our actions. The lyrics refer to a "cowardly warrior" who is consumed by his desire for violence and bloodshed. The line "this lust for blood cannot be appeased" speaks to the idea that human beings are often driven by uncontrollable impulses, which can lead to destructive behavior. The next line, "what fickle angels are we," suggests that we are not entirely in control of our actions, and that there may be some outside force or influence that drives us to act a certain way.

I remember listening to this 12 or so years ago, I was 16 or 17, this was my favorite song on the cd and always wished it was longer. It's such a beautiful song. I love the contradiction of the dreamy/beautiful music and the screams. Not just gutturals, but what seems to be genuine emotional screams. Gives me chills.

Same with me... I'm 27 years old now. I was probably 17( no nvm would of been more like 15) replaying this. Im amazed at the low view count. Crazy. Lifes too short.
