Visigoth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When silence comes, don′t let it break you
Draconic days, a distant age
Shiftless in their endless gray
Trees like towers standing sentinel and cold
Then from the dark, like blazing scythes
Came fire cutting through the night
Ashen one, this world is dying
Embrace the sun
The time has come, your flame is rising
Ashen one, the dark is howling
Push ever on
Raise your sword, become the bane of the abyss
Death will come in endless ways
As distant fire guides your way
It is your curse to seek its light until the end
The fear of gods has always been the sentencing of doom for men
And so the of villians this tragedy are set in a hollow stone
Ashen one, this world is dying
Embrace the sun
The time has come, your flame is rising
Ashen one, the dark is howling
Push ever on
Raise your sword, become the bane of the abyss
Go forth, awaken now
Strike the ancient bells
Your soul will shape this world
You are the tolling bell
So claim the souls of lords, from the fire come
Rage with humanity, once hollow now renowned
Ashen one, this world is dying
Embrace the sun
The time has come, your flame is rising
Ashen one, the dark is howling
Push ever on
Raise your sword, become the bane of the abyss
The song Fireseeker by Visigoth is about the concept of embracing light and pushing back against the darkness. The first verse talks about the ominous darkness, warning against letting it break you. The following line about "draconic days" and a "distant age" suggests it is set in a fantastical world. The trees are described as "standing sentinel and cold", further contributing to the eerie atmosphere. Soon the song takes a more positive turn as the singer witnesses the light that comes from the darkness. The chorus encourages embracing the sun, becoming the flame that rises and pushes against the howling dark. The verse about the fear of gods and the sentencing of doom for men shows the consequences of the characters' actions hang heavy.
The second verse talks about death guiding the way and the curse of seeking the light. The singer is advised to go forth and awaken, strike the ancient bells to shape the world for himself. He is the "tolling bell," who holds the key to becoming renowned, as they rage with humanity. The song ends up on the same optimistic note of embracing the sun, raising the sword, and becoming the bane of the abyss.
Overall, Fireseeker is a song that focuses on the fight against darkness and the importance of staying strong, fiery, and resilient in the face of fear.

Beware the dark for it may take you
Be cautious of the darkness as it might consume you
When silence comes, don′t let it break you
Don't let silence overpower you
Draconic days, a distant age
An age that existed long ago
Shiftless in their endless gray
Lacking motivation, continuously feeling dull
Trees like towers standing sentinel and cold
Trees that are so tall and stand still like guards, making the surroundings cold
Then from the dark, like blazing scythes
Out of nowhere, there came fire, hot as scythes
Came fire cutting through the night
Fire that sliced through the darkness
An age of lords was forged in forbearant disparity of light
The lords rose in power only after bearing the contrast between the light and the dark
Ashen one, this world is dying
The world is heading towards its demise
Embrace the sun
Embrace hope and positivity
The time has come, your flame is rising
It's time for you to rise and showcase your strengths
Ashen one, the dark is howling
The darkness is lurking and crying out loud
Push ever on
Keep pushing forward, never look back
Raise your sword, become the bane of the abyss
Fight back and turn into the one most feared by the darkness
Death will come in endless ways
Death can come in various forms
As distant fire guides your way
Let the fire in the distance guide you
It is your curse to seek its light until the end
Your fate is to search for this light until the very end
The fear of gods has always been the sentencing of doom for men
The fear of divine beings has brought many people to their demise
And so the of villains this tragedy are set in a hollow stone
The villains of the story are destined to live in shame forever
Go forth, awaken now
It's time to wake up and move forward
Strike the ancient bells
Rings the old bells
Your soul will shape this world
Your soul can make a difference in the world
You are the tolling bell
You are the one who can bring change
So claim the souls of lords, from the fire come
Gather the souls of the lords from the fire
Rage with humanity, once hollow now renowned
Feel the emotions of humanity, transform from empty to famous
Raise your sword, become the bane of the abyss
Brandish your sword and defeat the darkness

Isn't it "Once hollow, now unbound"? That's what I hear. It'd make sense, considering the Chosen Undead's escape from the Undead Asylum.
Edgar Augusto Ruiz Santos
The chorus it's so damn catchy.
