- Crystal Skull Lyrics / with translationsGuide a truth, prevail and ride
Into the black hole, searching the crystal
Making the veins bleed
The source of consciousness alive
Crystalline resonance
Into the black hole, searching the crystal
Making the veins bleed
A deep breath 'fore the plunge
One million voices, dispelling
A thousand faces, disarming
Running through the darkness
Holding hearts in my eyes
Falling short of gauntlet
Covered in blood-sucking flies
The touch is cold, I tore a path
Screaming through wind and blood
I will it all
Burning deep in my skull
Into the black hole, searching the crystal
Making the veins bleed
The source of consciousness alive
Crystalline resonance
Into the black hole, searching the crystal
Making the veins bleed
A deep breath 'fore the plunge
One million voices, dispelling
Running through the darkness
Holding hearts in my eyes
Falling short of gauntlet
Covered in blood-sucking flies
The touch is cold, I tore a path
Screaming through wind and blood
I will it all
Burning deep in my skull

When we look deeper into its meaning, Mastodon’s 'Crystal Skull' is a song that takes the listener through the hands of truth and consciousness, represented by the quest for crystal in a black hole. The words show the singer's going through difficulties and hardships, depicted by sucking flies and pitch blackness, while keeping the spirit and power of the person in the middle of the turmoil. Lyrical sentiments like angst, reflection, anger, empowerment and despair are more or less the main concerns of the crystal skull. Meantime, the piece also talks about the importance of fighting and faith in the search of truth, light, and sometimes, the sacrifice of pain. It would be a hard pill for children below 13 to swallow due to the violent and emotionally intense ways of expressing mature ideas and pictures used in the lyrics. I think the euphemisms like 'making the veins bleed' and 'covered in blood-sucking flies' point to a level of intensity that is risky.
