Power Of Soul
Valley's Eve Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pain, I live, I die
How do you explain the escape from the grieved heart?
I live, I die
Don't try it, you can not conquer all the confusion
In the centre of your soul
Over your heart Unconsciously we follow
Turns us into stone, day by day
Everything only because of you
Remote-controlled humans with their hearts
Only with toil they follow the commands Our hope of life
Becomes rusty from time to time And with it all the dreams are dying
For him, for her, for all
The power of the soul
Which is dead from the birth
The lyrics of "Power Of Soul" by Valley's Eve poetically delve into themes of inner pain and confusion, conveying the idea that emotions like grief and heartbreak can transform a person from the inside out. The first lines "An inner scream, pain, I live, I die" evoke a sense of overwhelming emotion, like a scream that can only come from within. The songwriter questions how to explain or escape from the pain that can consume the soul, leaving one feeling like they are constantly living and dying at the same time. The lines "In the center of your soul, over your heart unconsciously we follow" suggest that this pain is at the core of one's true self, and despite our attempts to ignore it, it guides our actions and emotions.
The song suggests that humans can become "remote-controlled" by their own hearts, as they struggle to follow the commands of their pain and emotions. The lyrics "the power of the soul, which is dead from the birth" speaks to a feeling of resignation, as though the pain and confusion in life is an inescapable force. The hope of life can become "rusty" and wither away, along with all of one's dreams. The song speaks to the idea that the power of the soul, while potentially a source of great strength, can also be a burden that weighs heavily on one's life.
