AUGUST BURNS RED

- Marianas Trench Lyrics

This ship is sinking, deeper and deeper.
We've abandoned this vessel and left the captain for dead.
Waves thirst for our passing. Waves thirst for our passing.
Prepare for the struggle. Prepare to engage.
Our armor tight to the skin, this shield it bears His name.
We are strapped to the teeth, but our swords are lodged tightly in our throats.
We are going under.
We cannot swim under these conditions.
We're drowning quicker and quicker.
We cannot swim, we cannot swim, we can't swim under these conditions.
We are drowning quicker and quicker.
We cannot swim, we cannot swim under these conditions....
We have become what we have feared (We have become what we have feared), being one with this world.
We've become one with this world.
Yeah...
Pray for Heaven's titans to rain down, and spare us the pain.
We're going under. We're going under.
Pray for Heaven's titans to rain down, and spare us the pain.
We're going under. We're going under.
Under, under, under, under...

What is the meaning behind Marianas Trench lyrics?


When we reflect on what the artist might have meant, August Burns Red's 'Marianas Trench' metaphorically illustrates a sinking ship to signify being overwhelmed and drowning amid life's difficult situations. The lyrics reveal an attitude of despair and an invitation for the divine to come to the rescue by lightening the burden and struggles of people who feel they are being overtaken by the world. The lyrics of Marianas Trench mainly focus on angst, despair, reflection, anger, and hope. The song, however, does not only deal with desperation and struggle, but also with fear and transformation, and the ever-present plea for salvation. The active words struggle, drowning, and despair characterize the lyrics, and perhaps this may be too strong for the young ones. The ship going down scene and the phrases being 'strapped to the teeth' and 'swords tightly lodged in our throats' imply a certain degree of violence and distress that should probably lead one to think twice about allowing children under 13 to listen.

So true. This world is sinking in a pit of sin. We gotta keep our armor on and stay steadfast to God.

This is so true. We compromise more and more until eventually the world views a Christain as one of them. Great song.

Without God we are all sinking in our own ships. We are drowning under the conditions of the absence of God. Convert and be saved! Go ABR
