Death Will Be My Bride
Embracing Shadows: Death's Whispers in Brendan Perry's JourneyLyrics
Woke up this morning
Waking up in the morning, starting a new day.
Set off down the road
Beginning a journey or a path.
Left behind me all those years
Leaving the past behind, moving away from previous experiences.
Searching for a common soul
Seeking a connection with others, a shared humanity.
I've been looking for a thousand
Searching for numerous distractions or experiences.
And one distractions
Engaging in various distractions to clear the mind.
To empty my mind
Trying to free the mind from thoughts of loneliness.
Of thoughts of loneliness
Struggling with feelings of isolation and solitude.
I've been looking for someone
Seeking someone to alleviate frustrations.
To take away my frustrations
Facing a lack of solutions, encountering emptiness.
But all I find is a sea of emptiness
Finding a vast emptiness instead of relief.
Death will be my bride
Acceptance of death as an inevitable companion.
Death will be my bride
Reiteration of accepting death as a significant part of life.
Three hours from sundown
Progressing through the day, nearing sunset.
I'm still on the road
Continuing the journey as the day approaches its end.
With those voices in my head
Battling inner voices and memories from the past.
Ringing down the years
Hearing echoes of the past, memories persisting.
For the wind whispers my name
Nature signaling and guiding the way.
And the leaves - they lend a helping hand
Nature providing support, possibly symbolically.
If I don't reach you by this time tomorrow
A sense of urgency to connect with someone.
I'll be stone cold dead in the ground
Expressing a risk of imminent death if connection fails.
Death will be my bride
Embracing death as an inevitable fate.
Death will be my bride
Reiterating the acceptance of death as an ultimate companion.
