To understand Lord Hypnos you must understand the band behind the song.(this song is sort of part 5 out of a 20+ song epic story about trying to fathom existence). (lunar strain - jester race)
However Lunar Strain Starts where Jester race Ends, which means they kind of Terrintino'd It and wrote it out of order.
1.Lets start with Jester Race(album)because it is the first part. The first Song is Moonshield. This is an extremely abstract song, and how the story begins. A Man is sacrifeced and with his last moments of life stares at th heavens. The shield/moon represents what is just beyond his understanding. The shield now broken, than man yurns to go back to the joys of life again but he cannot. ( his body is buried under rocks)
2.Artifacts of the black rain - best lyrics, Digging through the earth making friends with the soil(sums it up) (the man is still burried underground)
Graveland... Pure death. The man is no longer part of our world.
LORD HYPNOS- Finally a resting place for the man. Nothing can touch him he is safe inside this intoxicating slumber. Inside this dreamworld the universe is simple, Time and Space become non existent.
The Mans soul feels no pain as he dives into the dimensionless infinity.
Dead Eternity - What was once a Man is no more. Maddening Emptiness. And abastract entity remains in the mans place.
Jester Race - The realization that we are all fools. The human race is a joke when looked down upon from. The Entity mocks mans ignorance and is disguted by the shell of its former self.
That is most of what I get out of The jester race. The story continues to get bigger and bigger and more abstract. The enitity feels every emotion fathomable from agonizing pain to euphoria multiplied by infinity, the purest fires engulf the entity "In Flames" His soul now sits upon a throne beyond all time existence and relevence. The entity is now god completly trancended , It simultaniously feels nothing and everything and has no will, only answers.
