Society of the Silver Cross "By the Millions" (Official Lyric Video)

Подробнее о видео

Official Lyric Video for "By The Millions" from album "Festival of Invocations" (June 2024).

"By The Millions" emerged as a reflection of the uncertainty and fear that gripped us at the onset of the pandemic. Confronted with the prospect of an unknown and potentially catastrophic future, we both grappled with the overwhelming sense of isolation and abandonment. The lyrics convey our profound sense of vulnerability, as we felt like nameless shadows left to our own survival. The instrumental sections carry a lumbering quality, evoking a reluctant march of millions one by one, while amplifying the peculiar parallel of solitude amidst the collectively shared experience. As the song concludes, it felt natural to steer the tale towards a more open, uplifting ending into a place of hope. #neofolk #gothicmusic #darkmusic #seattlemusic

Lyrics:
They paint the streets with our shadows
By the millions
Believe the words and then follow
By the millions
The ego, the enlightened soul
All the things that left me cold
When we walk, we walk alone
By the millions
By the millions…when we walk alone
By the millions
Calling all the angels from above
Could you come and rescue, rescue us
Hand and hand, one by one
By the millions
Mercy, Mother mercy
From the one to the many
By the millions
By the millions…when we walk alone
By the millions
