Stillbirth
Wumpscut Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In A Dark Night You Were Born
In A Dark Place You Were Torn
Out Of A Mother Without Sin
The Points Were Set You Couldn't Win
They Tried To Save You Out Of Her Womb
It Will Mean Your Grave And Your Tomb
You Leave This Earth Before You Know
To God's Arbitrariness You Have To Bow
Condemned To Suffer And Die In The Dark
There's No Paradise That Is Worth To Remark
There's No Paradise
With High Hopes She Tried To Give Eternal Life
But Now The Little Worm Is Dead Without A Life
Don't Be Sad This Is The Way
That All Creatures Have To Go On Their Last Day
To God's Arbitrariness You Have To Bow
With No Consciousness Nothing To Know




Will We Ever Meet Again Will We Suffer Endlessly
We Are Lost In Universe We Are Lost Eternally

Overall Meaning

The song "Stillbirth" by Wumpscut discusses a baby's tragic death during childbirth. The lyrics talk about how the baby is born in a dark place and torn from their mother who has not sinned. However, regardless of that, the baby's destiny is already written, and they are not able to win against it. The lyrics then detail the doctor's failed attempts to save the baby but ultimately fail, and it leads to the death of the baby.


The song then talks about how the mother had hoped to give her child eternal life, but now the baby is dead without ever having lived. The song ends on a somber note, talking about how all creatures have to face death and that they must bow to the arbitrariness of God.


The lyrics of the song are quite poignant and describe a tragic situation that many people face. The song talks about how even though the baby is innocent and has never sinned, they are still condemned to death. The song ends with the question of whether they will ever meet again and if they will suffer endlessly, which adds another layer of sadness to the song.

I think so! Wumpscut takes a fairly passive phenomenon and gives it horrifying adult thoughts.
