Eternally To Suffer

“Eternally To Suffer” by Suicidal Angels is a dark and intense exploration of eternal torment and the inevitability of death. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of a nightmarish existence, where the protagonist is trapped in a cycle of suffering and despair. The opening lines, “Possessing nightmares / To feed the sickest dawn,” suggest a world where nightmares fuel the beginning of each day, setting a grim tone for the rest of the song. The imagery of “blackened holes of sickness” and “a left forgotten idol” further emphasizes the sense of decay and abandonment.

The chorus, “Hail hail now be prepared to die / Choked to the death / Eternally to suffer,” serves as a stark reminder of the inescapable fate that awaits. The repetition of these lines reinforces the inevitability of death and the eternal suffering that follows. The song also touches on themes of helplessness and despair, as seen in the lines, “Now watch your infants helpless / To fall under the knife.” This imagery evokes a sense of powerlessness and the cruel nature of fate.

In the latter part of the song, the lyrics take on a more defiant tone, urging the listener to “Kneel before the sacred nation / Take your vows to loyal serve.” This can be interpreted as a critique of blind obedience and the consequences of following oppressive systems. The lines, “Thrown into the wolves, broken all the rules / This is the truth revealed, it's obvious you fool,” suggest a revelation of harsh truths and the futility of resistance. Ultimately, “Eternally To Suffer” is a powerful and haunting reflection on the human condition, the inevitability of death, and the perpetual cycle of suffering.
