- Crown LyricsIf eyes are the mirror of the soul
You will find in mine the scorn and apathy
You will read my hatred as in a curs'd book
You will see yourself as I see you
It is a mirror sombre and opaque
Which protects me, which stifles me
A great ditch around the heart
Which rejects, which estranges me
There is a world in my head
A dead world where nothing lives
And it is there I am, too far,
Far to far to be rejoined
A crown of thorns is still a crown
I am a king in a kingodm of suffering
I have taken my time to reach this stage
I have taken pains to tourture myself
To descend, to descend
Into Pain, I exist
An if my brain is numbed
The thorn in my flesh
Can overcome apathy
There is glory in humiliation
A throne to be taken, a crown to win
I have no more tears,
And my smile has lost its brilliance
I have forgotten who I was
I have killed my emotions
Crushed, empty, weary
Always standing, I am a tree
Awaiting the lightning
You will find in mine the scorn and apathy
You will read my hatred as in a curs'd book
You will see yourself as I see you
It is a mirror sombre and opaque
Which protects me, which stifles me
A great ditch around the heart
Which rejects, which estranges me
There is a world in my head
A dead world where nothing lives
And it is there I am, too far,
Far to far to be rejoined
A crown of thorns is still a crown
I am a king in a kingodm of suffering
I have taken pains to tourture myself
To descend, to descend
Into Pain, I exist
An if my brain is numbed
The thorn in my flesh
Can overcome apathy
There is glory in humiliation
A throne to be taken, a crown to win
I have no more tears,
And my smile has lost its brilliance
I have forgotten who I was
I have killed my emotions
Crushed, empty, weary
Always standing, I am a tree
Awaiting the lightning

✔️
When we look deeper into its meaning, Samael's Crown is a musical that goes all the way to the bottom of personal suffering and emotional deadness, employing the metaphors of a 'crown of thorns' and a 'kingdom of suffering' as the means of the artist's coming through pain and the quest for meaning in the depths of humiliation and apathy. So, the lyrics of Crown point out most of all despair, angst, fury, seclusion, and meditation. However, the song also emphasizes the role of alienation and loneliness, self-imposed suffering, victory in surrender, emotional numbness, and endurance in the midst of despair. The lyrics present suffering, self-torture, and deadness of feelings as mature and highly charged maps of experience. The images and the vocabulary, like 'crown of thorns,' 'kingdom of suffering,' and 'thorn in my flesh,' reveal a depth of emotional and psychological complexity that perhaps would not be appropriate for the young audience without parental guidance.
