Voidhanger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Life runs painfully gray down the walls of time
Clenching onto the void
Laming intense shivering terror
Evilution of the mind
Severe plunging lightning
Cracking, trembling, reeling
(the) Beast hovering greedily
Waiting (insanely) to do me in
Struggling exhausted to the cold paramounts
Sliding down the razorblade of life
Evilution of the mind
Severe plunging lightning
Cracking, trembling, reeling
The world leaves you blind
The lyrics to Voidhanger's song "Void" seem to describe a feeling of existential desolation and despair. The soulsets are "dreary" and "bitter," and the singer feels like life is "painfully gray" and "clenching onto the void." This void seems to be a source of "intense shivering terror" for the singer, who may be struggling to find meaning and purpose in a world that seems empty and meaningless.
As the song progresses, the lyrics become more intense and visceral. The singer talks about the "evilution" of the mind and the "severe plunging lightning" of some unseen force that is causing them to suffer. The world around them is "cracking, trembling, reeling," and they are left behind to contend with the aftermath. Meanwhile, a "beast" is hovering "greedily," waiting to take them down.
Despite all of this, the singer seems determined to keep moving forward, even if it means "sliding down the razorblade of life." They know that the world can leave you blind, but they keep struggling anyway, exhausted but not defeated.
Overall, the lyrics to "Void" are dark and introspective, painting a picture of someone grappling with the harsh realities of life and the emptiness that can come with it. The song's heavy instrumentation and powerful vocals help to underscore the emotions being expressed in the lyrics.
