Taranoías Lyrics – Eluveitie

Taranoías Lyrics by Eluveitie is a new english song by Eluveitie. The song is released on Nuclear Blast Records’ official YouTube channel, written by Chrigel Glanzmann, Fabienne Erni, Jonas Wolf, Lea-Sophie Fischer, and Tommy Vetterli. Produced by Jens Bogren, Jonas Wolf, and Tommy Vetterli, Taranoías offers listeners a powerful and introspective folk-metal experience, merging melodic elements with philosophical depth and apocalyptic intensity.

Thematically, Taranoías explores the spiritual and existential crisis of modern humanity. Through poetic and mythologically influenced language, Eluveitie reflects on society’s descent into delusion, isolation, and moral decay. The lyrics evoke imagery of collapse and awakening, portraying a world consumed by distraction, greed, and spiritual silence. Yet within the darkness, there’s a yearning for transcendence—a hope for clarity amidst chaos, symbolized by the mysterious journey “into the light of the starless night.” The song challenges listeners to confront inner truths while lamenting the collective loss of meaning.

[Verse 1]
Eluveitie opens with stark imagery of abandonment and grief. The “widowed” state implies a collective loss—possibly of spirituality, identity, or guidance. The act of “clutching at every straw” and seeking “soothing hope” illustrates humanity’s desperation to find comfort in an increasingly disconnected world.

[Verse 2]
This verse portrays a bleak portrait of escapism. The metaphor of “heaving the life support” suggests we’re keeping ourselves alive artificially, relying on emotional numbing and distraction. “Shrink-wrapped empty shells” reflects spiritual emptiness, while “deaf to the ring of our knells” warns of collective denial as destruction looms. The “chalice of the end” is lifted by greed and malice, signifying that our own vices have brought us to the brink of ruin.

[Chorus]
The chorus juxtaposes darkness and transcendence. The “starless night” symbolizes a journey into the unknown—perhaps death or spiritual rebirth—while being “borne by thunders diamantine” suggests that this transition, though violent, is divine or transformative. The haze lifting “in front of our very self” implies an impending moment of truth or self-realization.

[Verse 3]
Here, Eluveitie deepens the existential dread as walls close in and the soul feels detached. The “sworn divide” may hint at societal or internal fragmentation. Dreams have turned “moribund,” representing the death of ideals or purpose. Still, there is a timeless force—“the eternal will”—that carries this dark light, hinting at destiny or a cosmic process beyond human control.

[Bridge]
This section references “awen,” a Celtic term for poetic inspiration or spiritual essence. Its silence marks a loss of deeper connection or creativity. The yearning for atonement reflects guilt and a search for redemption. The question of whether a godless world will tremble before awakening fire points to an impending reckoning—spiritual, ecological, or moral.

[Instrumental Break]
The instrumental passage likely serves as a moment of reflection or emotional swell, giving weight to the lyrics’ intensity and allowing the listener to absorb the gravity of the song’s message.

[Refrain]
These four stark words—“in ruin, in pain, in labour, in awe”—capture the human condition. They suggest that even in collapse and suffering, there is sacredness or profound beauty. It evokes the paradox of being alive in a broken world.

[Pre-Chorus]
A partial return of the chorus themes, this section again carries the listener “into the light” of the “starless night,” affirming the mysterious journey forward. The phrase “borne by thunders diamantine” is repeated, reinforcing the divine or fateful nature of this transition.

[Chorus]
The final chorus revisits the image of movement into an uncertain but illuminating future. The repetition emphasizes surrender to a higher, perhaps unknown truth—lifting the internal fog and facing one’s authentic self as the world crumbles.

Taranoías Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Behold! This is us
Widowed and left behind
Clutching at every straw
Gasping for soothing hope

[Verse 2]
Heaving the life support
As we crave narcotic comfort
Shrink-wrapped empty shells
Deaf to the ring of our knells
Craving distraction
And refuge in delusion
As greed and malice
Have raised the chalice of the end
The end, the end

[Chorus]
Off into the light
Of the starless night
We waft away
Borne by thunders diamantine
Into the blaze
Lifting the haze
In front of our very self

[Verse 3]
As the walls are coming closer
And spirit drifts further
The sworn divide is spreading on
A sedated dream’s come moribund
Wrought inside the tide of time
The dark light clandestine
Carried by the eternal will
Beyond descent or end

[Bridge]
When the awen’s fallen silent
And yearning for atonement
Will a godless world quake
Before the fires shall wake

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]
In ruin
In pain
In labour
In awe

[Pre-Chorus]
Into the light
The starless night
We waft away
Borne by thunders diamantine
[?]

[Chorus]
Off into the light
Of the starless night
We waft away
Borne by thunders diamantine
Into the blaze
Lifting the haze
In front of our very self
