Deeper
Vulture Industries Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sore, bloody, fingers dig through soil
Like ghosts, shying from the day
Inch by inch we make our way into the dark depths
we heard its calling
Through dust and stones
Call blood, calling bone
Our souls compelled
to take their chances in hell
To claw our way a little deeper
Past jagged stone towards the core
Hearts pounding madly on death's door
Our eyes fixed on the end
One and all we will rely upon the promise
We heard the calling
They call from hell
Unbreakable spell
To claw our way a little deeper
Through dust and stones
Call blood, calling bone
To claw our way a little deeper
Yet onwards
Forward we go
Lost, by our own hearts cursed to press on deeper still
Lost,
restless like bees
swarming until we lose our way
until we were lost none would look up and sing the sky is gone
The song "Deeper" by Vulture Industries explores the theme of digging deeper, be it in the literal sense of mining or figurative sense of delving into one's own psyche. The lyrics depict the constant struggle faced by miners, who with their sore and bleeding fingers, dig through rock and compact earth inch by inch shying away from the day. They are compelled by an irresistible force, which calls to them from the depth, urging them to delve deeper, to claw their way into the depths of the earth. The song conjures up a vivid image of miners working tirelessly, their hearts pounding madly on death's door, yet onwards they go, lost like bees until they lose their way.
While the song's verses paint a picture of physical mining, the chorus portrays the figurative mining of the soul. With their hearts cursed, the miners press forward still, urged on by the unbreakable spell of the unknown depths. The call to go deeper resonates as a universal call to explore the unknown, regardless of the potential dangers.
Overall, "Deeper" is a tribute to one's tenacity and perseverance in the face of adversity. It portrays the human spirit's unquenchable desire to understand and explore the unknown, whether in the physical or spiritual sense.

Through rock, and compact earth we toil
We work hard through solid ground to reach our goal
Sore, bloody, fingers dig through soil
Our fingers hurt and bleed as we dig through the soil
Like ghosts, shying from the day
We work in darkness, shying away from daylight
Inch by inch we make our way into the dark depths
We make slow, steady progress in reaching the deep depths
we heard its calling
We are motivated by an inner call to keep digging deeper
Through dust and stones
We push through obstacles of dust and stones
Call blood, calling bone
Our bodies are driven by the call to press on deeper
To claw our way a little deeper
We are determined to make progress towards our goal
Our souls compelled
Our inner being is driven to go deeper
to take their chances in hell
We are willing to risk all and go to any length to reach our goal

We proceed past sharp and rough obstacles towards our destination
Hearts pounding madly on death's door

One and all we will rely upon the promise
We all depend on the assurance of attaining our objective
We heard the calling

Unbreakable spell
We are under an irresistible influence, driving us forward
Yet onwards
Despite the difficulties, we still continue towards our objective
Forward we go
We keep moving ahead with determination
Lost, by our own hearts cursed to press on deeper still
We are lost and compelled by inner drive to dig even deeper
Lost, restless like bees swarming until we lose our way
We are like bees in constant motion but risk losing our direction
until we were lost none would look up and sing the sky is gone
Nobody realizes that we are lost and far away from the surface

lyrics with minor adjustments (that's what I hear at least, ps. my favorite song out of all that I have ever heard in my whole life, irreplacable)
Through rock, and compact earth we toil
Sore, bloody, fingers dig through soil
Like ghosts, shying from the day
Inch by inch we make our way into the dark
depths
We heard its calling
Through dust and stones
Call blood, calling bone
To claw our way a little deeper
Our souls compelled
to take their chances in hell
To claw our way a little deeper
We heard its calling
Past jagged stone towards the core
Hearts pounding madly on death's door
Our eyes fixed on the end
One and all we will depend upon the promise
We heard it, we heard it
We heard the calling
We heard the calling
They call from hell
Unbreakable spell
To claw our way a little deeper
Through dust and stones
Call blood, calling bone
To claw our way a little deeper
Yet onwards, forward we go
Lost,
by our own hearts cursed to
press on deeper still
Lost,
restless like bees
swarming until we get lost, until we get lost
until we got lost none would look up and sing
'The sky is gone'...
