Crash
Echoes of Love and Loss: Black Orchid Empire's Poignant 'Crash' Tale
Lyrics
Wish I could still hear your
Expressing a desire to still hear the person's voice.
Voice through the door
Reflecting on the past ability to hear the voice through the door.
Now there's sulphur in the water
Noticing a negative change, symbolized by sulfur in the water.
And my body won't work any more
Feeling physical and emotional breakdown after a traumatic event.
It's colder in here
Describing a cold and unwelcoming atmosphere.
I can feel the ragged edges of the
Sensing the harshness of a steel surface touching the floor.
Steel where it touches the floor
Continuing to depict a challenging and uncomfortable environment.
I guess the crash
Reflecting on a significant and impactful event, possibly a crash.
Was worse than the burn
Comparing the aftermath, stating that the crash was more severe than the burn.
Dying is easy but the living hurts
Acknowledging the difficulty of living with the consequences of the crash.
The air is crystalline light
Describing a clear and bright atmosphere, perhaps symbolizing clarity.
I see the colours in the spectrum
Observing and appreciating the diversity represented by colors in the spectrum.
As I watch my world reflect in the ice
Watching one's world reflected in ice, suggesting a frozen or unchanging situation.
Won't reach you in time
Expressing a realization that reaching the person in time is impossible.
Now I'm surrounded by the beauty
Surrounded by the beauty of things that were unable to save lives.
Of the things that couldn't save our lives
Highlighting the irony of finding beauty in things that couldn't prevent the tragedy.
And now I can't reach your hand
Feeling the inability to connect with the person, witnessing their gradual departure.
You're slipping away
Expressing the pain of watching someone slip away despite the beauty in the situation.
But it's all so beautiful
Acknowledging the beauty in the midst of a difficult and painful experience.
I'm at the gate looking in
Being outside, separated, and looking into a situation or relationship.
I guess it could be worse
Acknowledging the current situation and suggesting it could be worse.
But I never really learned how to swim
Expressing a lack of preparedness or ability to navigate through challenges.
I want you to know
Expressing a desire for the person to know their significance in final moments.
You are in my final thought
Conveying that the person is a prominent thought as everything comes to an end.
When everything goes
Expressing that the person is in the speaker's thoughts as everything concludes.
