Dragon
Vitacit Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Žhavý blesk z nebe sjel
noc poražené nevítá
hradbu fanatických těl
tupý mozek ovládá

Sto slibů a sto velkých přání
sto hrdinů a co dál

Dragon procitá - horký dech v očích pálí
Dragon procitá - nevítán
Dragon procitá - s nocí roste jeho síla
Dragon procitá - už není sám

Obelhaní tuší krach
a ráno tváře vrahů odhalí
ve jménu palby - pal
konec všech mocenských snah

Sto slibů a sto marných přání
sto hrdinů a co dál

Dragon procitá - horký dech v očích pálí
Dragon procitá - nevítán
Dragon procitá - s nocí roste jeho síla
Dragon procitá - už není sám

Dragon procitá - horký dech v očích pálí
Dragon procitá - nevítán

Dragon procitá - s nocí roste jeho síla
Dragon procitá - vládce snů

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Vitacit's song "Dragon" tell the tale of a creature awakening with fire in its eyes and strength growing in the night. The first verse describes a lightning strike coming down from the sky, but the night doesn't greet it because it is already defeated. The dragon sees a wall of fanatics and a dull mind controlling them.

The second verse is about a hundred promises and a hundred great wishes, but also a hundred heroes with no clear outcome. It then describes a lie, a crash, and waking up to the faces of killers. The end of all the power-seeking attempts is brought about in the name of firing (as in artillery).

The chorus repeats the lines "Dragon awakens – hot breath burns in his eyes, Dragon awakens – unwelcome, Dragon awakens – his strength grows with night, Dragon awakens – no longer alone." This last line could be interpreted as suggesting the dragon has found companionship, but given the rest of the song, it could also mean that it has found strength in itself and no longer needs anyone else.

Overall, the song seems to be about a creature, likely the dragon of the title, that has been awakened and is finding new life and strength. The imagery in the lyrics is quite vivid, evoking a sense of darkness and danger.
