Beneath The Soil
Vomitory Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A world in chaos, pain control your thoughts
Self control dwells in a distant reality
Suffer for your last breath
Blood forces through your veins
Thoughts shattered into incomprehensible
Air supply slowly languish away
The final sleep approach, do you see the light
That cleanse for your soul, I am your master above
Awake but not completely conscious
Where darkness suffocates your soul
The mental strain cause of the cardiac death
Slowly descending on the voyage beneath the soil
The final sleep approach, do you see the light
That cleanse for your soul, I am your master above
The lyrics to Vomitory's song Beneath The Soil, paint a bleak picture of a world in chaos where pain controls thoughts, and self-control is nothing but a distant reality. The singer speaks of being lost in lunacy beyond redemption, and suffering until the last breath. The imagery in these lyrics is dark and disturbing, as the singer describes the sensation of blood pumping through veins and the feeling of being suffocated by darkness. The final sleep approaches, but there is no peace for the soul, only a descent into the soil.
The underlying theme of this song is death, despair, and the inevitable journey towards the afterlife. The singer speaks of being a master above who will cleanse the soul, perhaps speaking figuratively of God or a higher power. The lyrics evoke a sense of hopelessness and foreboding, making it clear that there is no escape from the final reckoning.
