Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This philosophical song explores themes of disillusionment, human deception, and existential truth. The narrator questions the absence of true humanity, observing that people harbor predatory and cunning animalistic nature beneath their surface. Relationships, love, and trust are viewed as mere illusions, with life characterized as a river flowing between banks of lies. Amidst betrayal and suffering, the lyricist reflects that wisdom is gained through pain. Ultimately, the song concludes that birth and death are the only absolute truths ordained by God, whereas the world's deceits are human creations. Connecting with one's deeper spiritual essence transforms human suffering into divine enlightenment.
