The night of timeless fire is drawing near
I flee... Throughout the years of throe
Watching through a mirror, as I fall apart
I see a wreck, I'm burning
I see angels burning, falling down in ruins
Looking down I see me, I'm my own enemy
Watching myself decaying, falling from high spirits
I flee... Throughout the ruins of me
Longing for finding my way out
Leaving myself, there's nothing left for me
The ruins are about to crumble down.
The flame is dying by shivery winds of jet black skies
It reflects hatred in my eyes
I see angels burning, falling down in ruins
Looking down I see my ashes scattered around my grave
Angels whispering fire, no longer I'm alive
Settled down I'm done with the trip to my kingdom come

What is the meaning behind Downfall lyrics?
When we try to understand the message behind it, the piece of art `Downfall` created by Children of Bodom expresses the feeling of inner conflict and self-destruction. The words describe a process of decay and downfall, represented by angels and ruins, thus, depicting a personal fight and the eventual death of the self. The Downfall words signal mainly thoughts of angst, despair, love lost, going within, and isolation. Moreover, the composition not only points out self-destruction, loss and despair as the trial but at the same time the quest for redemption. The wordings of the song have recourse to decay, self-destruction, and existential struggle as central themes, which could be viewed as somewhat too intense for kids below the age of 13. The images of fire, smoke, ashes and a grave evoke, at the very least, darker themes and hence the need for parental supervision. ✔️

Downfall falls under the genre Rock. ✔️
