Starforsaken Lyrics

Whipped in the eye by the sand
Malicious have light of day obscured
The sun has burned my skin
Open wounds are licked by sand

To be punished by this vortex of scorn

Wrists and ankles are chained upon this land
Drawn through the desert to be their sacrifice

So this is my golgatha, so this is my grave
The thieves, the liars, the hypocrit scum
I´d slay them if I only could

The endless sand, the blackest land
A cyclone of spinecrushing anger
Meant for me

The overlords of the desert
Not one was meant to be
All human force now flee
Rules of anatomy lost
Rage into the extreme

I've always thought that it was about Moses and the Jews journey through the desert. Forsaken by the Northern star.

Ofcourse, I could be dead wrong.

you know what? i think your right, Varulf. note also that the lyric "Starforsaken" is in the song "Lunar Strain" i just noticed that, and i had to say it somewhere. it's definately an epic journey...whether moses & jews, or just some person trying to cross the dessert, and it really sucking for them

I don't really see how this song is about a journey, interesting though it sounds. I'd prefer to think it's a song which is basically about a guy being tortured in the desert by some divine powers.

I think bukey is right, I've must have been on crack, because that's the lamest song interpretation ever. I don't know what I was thinking, I must have hit my head when I wrote that or something.
