10,000 Years
Eternal Love Unveiled: 10,000 Years of Hidden Romance
Lyrics
When I was only a kid, I hid in the pyramids
Reflecting on childhood, metaphorically hiding in the pyramids, perhaps a symbol of mystery or secrets.
Archeologists came so I just changed my name
Changing identity to avoid archeologists, possibly expressing a desire for anonymity.
I had years still to go, they were moving too slow
Impatience with the slow progress of time, indicating anticipation or eagerness.
I was here from the start, now it's the end of the show
Claiming to be present from the beginning and now acknowledging the end of an era or experience.
Forever, I never thought that this day would come
Expressing surprise at the arrival of a significant day or event.
She's been my everything, not anything or anyone
Acknowledging someone as essential, emphasizing their unique importance.
Could kill the time and wait in line for a sign
Frustration with waiting, seeking a sign or indication of what's to come.
Textbooks they don't mention me, forgotten over centuries
Feeling overlooked by history, being forgotten over centuries.
Last call that's on me, here's to eternity
Offering a final gesture or farewell, toasting to eternity.
10,000 years, now she's finally here
Celebrating the arrival of a significant period, possibly a milestone.
If the words come out wrong, I'll disappear
Expressing a fear of misunderstanding, hinting at a potential withdrawal or disappearance.
Now that I'm older than sin
Commenting on the passage of time and a sense of age.
I think the heavens caught wind
Suggesting divine awareness of the speaker's existence.
They send a postcard from home
Receiving a message or sign from a higher power.
They wanna throw me back in
Facing rejection or opposition, possibly from the divine realm.
But I am Omega Man, I am out on the lam
Identifying as the "Omega Man," possibly an outsider or a unique individual.
I think it's well understood that they don't understand
Feeling misunderstood and not recognized for who they are.
Me, myself, and I, we're hiding out in history
Describing a solitary existence with a play on pronouns.
A specific hieroglyphic message sent to me
Receiving a specific message in the form of a hieroglyph, possibly a revelation or guidance.
To kill the time, wait in line, for a sign
Reiterating the desire for a sign while waiting in line, possibly for a significant event.
Final hour, nevermore, tonight's the night I've waited for
Anticipating a crucial moment, a final hour that has been awaited.
Last call that's on me, here's to eternity
Offering a final gesture or farewell, similar to line 10.
And I know she's right for me, just the wrong century
Recognizing the right match but lamenting being in the wrong era.
10,000 years, now she's finally here
Celebrating the completion of a long period, possibly referencing a relationship.
If the words come out wrong, I'll disappear
Expressing fear of miscommunication and potential withdrawal or disappearance.
To the stars in the sky shining down on the girl
Acknowledging the girl under the stars from the beginning of time to the end of the world.
From the beginning of time, till the end of the world
Emphasizing the timeless and enduring nature of the girl's presence.
