Dark
Vader Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Strange visions dreams my mind,
When I'm walking through the night,
Each time I see the visage of the moon,
Dead cities amongst the sands,
Under the black abyss of seas,
Does madness seize my soul?
The elder race,
From beyond the stars,
Eternal watchers,
Of sphere of no return,
Seven seals,
Of seven mighty gates,
Abominations,
That come true within me.
Here's the key by which I can summon the forgotten world,
Unnatural desire of the knowledge of the gods,
Lust eating up the brain wherein there isn't fear yet,
I break the sleep of spectral friends,
Tear open the unseen, ghostly screen,
I make free for all ways for demons now,
And ruin the tombs of sacred souls....
An epileptic trance is entering my body,
to break all control rule of this mind
A boiling brain addicted to madness,
In which every night is like a horror dream.
Shudder in the dark breath,
Old evil blowing icily from the dark,
Wrapped in a shroud of mystery,
Faint voices from beyond the spaces,
Sample a dark universe,
domain of the strange aces,
With the angry gods,
Best forgotten and left undiscovered.
You know, of course,
I'll be back from the dead,
Blessing the blackness in glory,
Of billions of years,




On collapsed stars,
In rituals of the ancient race!

Overall Meaning

In "Dark," Vader takes us on a journey into madness and the occult. The singer is haunted by eerie visions and bizarre dreams that leave him questioning the limits of his sanity. As he walks through the night, he sees the visage of the moon and embarks on a descent into the forgotten world, a realm that mortals dare not venture.


The singer is overcome by an unnatural desire for knowledge of the gods, an obsession that consumes him and fuels his descent into madness. He breaks the sleep of spectral friends and tears open the unseen, ghostly screen, making way for the demons to ruin the tombs of sacred souls. As an epileptic trance takes over his body, he loses all control over his mind, which becomes addicted to the madness that lurks within it.

There is a sense that the singer has glimpsed into a dark universe, a domain of the strange aces, and has encountered angry gods that are best left undiscovered.


Overall, "Dark" is a chilling exploration of the depths of the human psyche and the lure of the occult. The lyrics create a sense of foreboding and unease, drawing the listener into the singer's descent into madness.
