Echoes of Hope: Artifiction's Poetic Reflection on a World in Crisis
Lyrics
Here we are in the echoes of the pain
Reflecting on the enduring effects of pain.
Standing tall waiting facing the light of the day
Standing resilient, anticipating the arrival of a new day.
Feel the rain on your skin tonight
Experiencing the touch of rain on the skin in the present moment.
As we see through these dreamy lights
Observing reality through a dreamlike perspective illuminated by lights.
In these shimmering shining lights we drown
Submerging in dazzling lights, feeling overwhelmed.
See for yourself this chaos engulfs us now
Witnessing chaos firsthand, engulfed in its impact.
Barely holding on to what we're tearing down
Struggling to maintain what is being destroyed.
Losing hope in humanity all over now
Experiencing a loss of hope in humanity.
Our last hope
Expressing a sense of desperation in the face of challenges.
Generations over now
Acknowledging the end of a generation.
Lead us home this is end
Appealing for guidance as the end approaches.
We're at an end these broken promises will never mend
Confronting an inevitable conclusion, broken promises unreparable.
To what we believe to what we've achieved
Reflecting on beliefs and achievements that may not endure.
To all of the children to all of our dreams
Referencing the impact on children and dreams.
Here we are in the echoes of the pain
Revisiting the echoes of pain, a cyclical experience.
Standing tall waiting facing the light of the day
Maintaining resilience while facing the light of a new day.
Feel the rain on your skin tonight
Experiencing the sensory elements of rain in the present moment.
As we see through these dreamy lights
Viewing reality through dreamlike lights, possibly escaping from harsh truths.
The change is rising
Signaling an impending change, a rise in challenges.
The oceans are dying
Highlighting the deterioration of oceans, a symbol of environmental decline.
The world is is over now
Declaring the end of the world, possibly due to environmental degradation.
Digging for gold the truth untold draining the world of all of its beautiful places
Metaphorically digging for gold reveals an untold truth, depleting beautiful places.
Wars overrun our cities leaving us behind I want to survive
Wars leaving cities in ruins, expressing a desire for survival amidst chaos.
Here we are in the echoes of the pain
Reiterating the echoes of pain, emphasizing a recurring theme.
Standing tall waiting facing the light of the day
Maintaining resilience while facing the light of a new day, again.
Feel the rain on your skin tonight
Experiencing the sensory elements of rain in the present moment, again.
As we see through these dreamy lights
Viewing reality through dreamlike lights, emphasizing escapism.
Our last hope
Repeating the plea for hope in the face of challenges.
Generations over now
Emphasizing the end of a generation, repeating the theme.
Lead us home
Seeking guidance as the end approaches, repeating the plea.
This is end This is end
Stating definitively that this is the end, reinforcing finality.
