The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Through Blood And Dirt And Bone" by the artist "Trivium"

The song "Through Blood And Dirt And Bone" by Trivium depicts a desperate struggle of the lyrical hero with some inner darkness that both frightens and attracts him. The lyrics are filled with pain, fear and hopelessness.

The phrase "Die young, save yourself!" reflects the hero's cynical attitude towards life, which he sees only as a "substitute for hell." He realizes that he is doomed to suffering ("I know the pain will last, I will not be saved"), and is overcome with guilt ("I will blame myself forever").

The hero cannot (or does not want to) fight. He surrenders to the onslaught of darkness ("I am betrayed as the end draws near"), but at the same time finds a kind of freedom in this defeat ("Taking control of the twilight, I managed to take fate into my own hands").

The image of "a corpse stuck in my throat" symbolizes the unspoken emotions that choke the hero. He longs to share his pain with someone ("I need you to feel all the pain I feel"), to drag him into the abyss of despair ("I'm pulling you to fall with me, now we're drowning in my disease").

The repeated phrase "I'm afraid I can't... Revive" emphasizes the irreversibility of what is happening. The hero sees no way out, he resigned himself to his fate and is ready to meet the end ("The end is coming. I'll take you with me").

The final lines "Through blood, through dirt and bone" are a metaphor for the difficult, painful path that the hero is ready to go to the end, dragging the listener along with him.

Die young, save yourself

Life is only replaced by hell

I know that the hurt will just go on

I can't save myself

Slowly, without a name

As the blood empties from my veins

Nothing ever stays the same — I know

I'll always take the blame

I fear I wont make,

Make it out,

Out in time

I fear I wont make,

Make it out,

Out alive

I'm alone when the ending comes

Take control of the nightmare

This fate has become my own

Choking on my soul

Misery has gained control

Hand in mouth: I start to pull the corpse

That's trapped inside my throat

I want so much to make you feel

All this pain that makes me real

I bring you down to fall with me — now drown

Inside of my disease

I fear I wont make,

Make it out,

Out in time

I fear I wont make,

Make it out,

Out alive

I'm alone when the ending comes

Take control of the nightmare

This fate has become my own

There is no quiet ending

I'll be taking you with me

Through blood and through dirt and bone

Through blood and dirt and bone

Through blood and dirt and bone

I'm alone when the ending comes

Take control of the nightmare

This fate has become my own

There is no quiet ending

I'll be taking you with me

Through blood and through dirt and bone

Through blood and dirt and bone
