"Hall Of The Sky" is a song by the American post-hardcore band Hopesfall, released in 2004. The lyrics are open to interpretation, but it seems to be about the struggle to find meaning and purpose in life, even in the face of adversity and injustice. The song begins with the lines "Let all dust scatter above the clouds/Directly do no wrong/Descend upon a scorched earth/Without question to inheritance". These lines suggest that the speaker is willing to face any challenge, no matter how difficult, in order to achieve their goals. The next few lines mention a "pack of wolves" and a "drowning man", which could be metaphors for the challenges that the speaker is facing. The lines "In the rain and the mud/Dug under the drain" suggest a feeling of being trapped or overwhelmed by these challenges. The chorus repeats the lines "Let all dust scatter above the clouds/Directly do no wrong/Descend upon a scorched earth/Without question to inheritance", emphasizing the speaker's determination to overcome whatever obstacles lie in their path. The following lines "Inheritance and restitution/Is unfortunately rare/What appeals to modulation/Is a buried man" suggest that the speaker is seeking justice or recompense for some past wrong, but is finding it difficult to obtain. The middle of the song features the lines "A curve at the surface/Our approach amended/Descend upon a scorched earth/Ascend from their attention", which could mean that the speaker is changing their approach or strategy in order to achieve success. The final lines of the song "Let all dust scatter above/Collapse in convalescence/Augment man's ethos/Symbiotic to grief in humanity/If when kings they don't want you served/What comfort lies within/Reflect that yours is impartial/Our approach is amended" suggest that the speaker is reflecting on the complex nature of human existence and the need to find one's own path in life, even in the face of adversity and rejection. Overall, "Hall Of The Sky" is a contemplative and introspective track that explores themes of determination, justice, and the struggle to find one's place in the world.
