Lyrics
There was a fissure in the ground
There was a significant crack or gap in the ground.
Wide enough to eat your whole heart
The gap was wide enough to consume one's entire emotional core.
You leapt across like it was easy
You effortlessly jumped over the gap as if it posed no challenge.
You looked right back and you said to me
You turned around and addressed me after crossing.
I got lost under silver sun
I became disoriented or lost beneath a silver sun.
When did we all go missing, hon?
A question about the time when all of us went missing.
I held a stone in the palm of my hand
I held a stone in my hand.
It flickered dim and I saw the end
The stone's light dimmed, and I perceived the approaching end.
I saw the end
I witnessed the end.
It flickered dim and I saw the end
The dimming stone reiterated the vision of the end.
There was a fissure in the ground
A recurring theme of a significant crack or gap in the ground.
Wide enough to keep us apart
This gap was wide enough to keep us separated.
You leapt across and I felt alone
You jumped across, leaving me feeling isolated and lonely.
Empty and riven a broken throne
I felt empty and broken, like a shattered throne.
I got lost under silver sun
Similar to line 6, a sense of being lost under a silver sun.
When did we all go missing, hon?
A repetition of the question about when everyone went missing.
I held a stone in the palm of my hand
Once again, holding a stone in the palm of the hand.
It flickered dim and I saw the end
The stone's dimming light reveals the impending end.
I saw the end
A repetition of witnessing the end.
It flickered dim and I saw the end
The dimming stone reaffirms the vision of the end.
