The meaning to this song is pretty simple- I see this lp as a concept album, focusing on one's descent into negativity and self-destruction caused by long periods of isolation (but that's obvious!). The whole album contemplates the action of suicide- whether it's really worth it or not, and in this song, the narrator finally reaches a conclusion with one of the best metaphors I've ever heard "Life is my coffin and it's time to shut the lid." So powerful, best black metal vocals I've ever heard accompanied by repetitive music (but never boring) that accurately represents the repetition that goes in a suicidal person's head.
