A Journey Through the Abyss: The Cosmic Funeral of Memories
Limbonic Art's song "A Cosmic Funeral Of Memories" delves into the profound and often unsettling themes of existential exploration and transformation. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a journey that begins with a traumatic voyage, symbolizing a deep dive into the unknown realms of the subconscious. This voyage is described as a point of no return, suggesting that once one has confronted the abysmal darkness within, it becomes an indelible part of their existence. The sky, depicted as a lonely and consuming space, represents the vast and often isolating nature of this inner journey.
The song continues to explore the theme of transformation through metaphors of cosmic and astral imagery. The 'magic flame' burning with lust and desire signifies an inner drive or passion that propels the individual forward, even as they witness the dying sun and the descent of paranormal darkness. This darkness symbolizes the invasion of the mind, heart, and soul by existential fears and doubts, leading to a metamorphosis. The night, belonging to the predator, represents the courage required to face these fears and cross the threshold into new realms of understanding.
In the final verses, the song speaks of a return to life with newfound clairvoyance, suggesting a rebirth or awakening. The voice from the 'grave land of memories' implies that past experiences, even those that are painful or traumatic, contribute to this new awareness. The concept of life as an illusion and death as a temptation underscores the existential themes of the song, culminating in the idea of a 'cosmic funeral of memories'—a symbolic farewell to the past and an embrace of the infinite possibilities of the cosmos.
