TIAMAT

- The Desolate One Lyrics

By a pool
Of amber water
A sticky smell
Of carrion kind
Integrates with nature slowly
Green fields I offer you
Snowy mountains in present air
The sunflower tongue
On a wave comes the saturn king
To grant the man on the beach
Surfing on his orbital rings
A frightened mental vortex we'll be
A sun we seek, a sun we flee
A scar
Upon mother earth
A nebular each
The desolate one
The desolate one
The desolate one

What is the meaning behind The Desolate One lyrics?


When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, Tiamat's 'The Desolate One' is a powerful song that describes a desolate and ghostly landscape with nature and celestial elements mixed together. The metaphors 'Sunflower tongue' and 'Surfing on orbital rings' mirror a feeling of separation and the wish for something unattainable, while 'A scar upon mother earth' signifies the harm done to the planet. The dominant emotion in the lyrics is loneliness and the desire to take refuge in the infinity of the universe. 'The desolate one' lyrics mostly highlight the same issues - angst, contemplation, sorrow, loneliness and commenting on the society. Meanwhile, the song does not only revolve around nature and environment but also existential reflection and isolation and desolation. Among the mature themes and imagery in the lyrics, one might find these references to nature and existential concepts as unsuitable for young children; however, there is no explicit language, violence, or adult content that makes it necessary to assign a higher rating.
