The Shattered Innocence: A Journey Through Pain and Disillusionment

Sanguis Et Cinis's song "Kind Der Unschuld 1+2" delves deep into themes of innocence lost, disillusionment, and the struggle for identity. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a weeping angel at the gates of heaven, symbolizing purity and innocence that has been tainted. The imagery of tears like broken glass suggests a profound and painful shattering of this innocence. The angel's fall and the closing of its eyes represent a loss of hope and a retreat into oneself, a common reaction to overwhelming despair.

The song continues to explore the theme of a soul battered by the harsh realities of the world. The protagonist speaks of having forgotten how to speak, a metaphor for losing one's voice or sense of self in the face of adversity. The act of bowing one's head in humility and attempting to surrender to the world, only to fail miserably, highlights the internal conflict and the struggle to maintain one's integrity and identity. The return to a state of broken innocence signifies a retreat into isolation, a coping mechanism for dealing with the pain inflicted by the world.

The lyrics also touch on the societal pressures and the judgment faced by the individual. The protagonist steps out with a laughing eye, trying to present themselves to the world, only to be met with ridicule and scorn. The questions of identity, "What are you?" and the subsequent self-doubt, "What am I?" reflect the existential crisis and the search for meaning. The use of terms like caricature, mockery, and abuse by the demons of ignorance and ruthlessness underscores the cruelty of societal judgment. Ultimately, the child of innocence turns their back on the world that has broken them, signifying a rejection of the harshness and a retreat into a safer, albeit lonelier, space.
