Apocalyptic Reflections: Seeking Redemption in 'Cleanse'
Lyrics
Life will be the death of us
Life is a threat to our existence.
And death will be the cleanse to what we need
Death is seen as a purifying force that humanity needs.
Now the flood gates are wide open
The barriers are open, possibly symbolizing vulnerability or exposure.
Infection is spreading
An infectious influence is spreading.
I cant help this feeling
A feeling of impending doom or crisis is acknowledged.
That the world is coming to an end
The belief that the world is approaching its end.
So forgive me of my sins and everything that I have done
Request for forgiveness for sins and actions.
Now we know we don't have much time to right all of the wrongs
A realization of limited time to correct mistakes.
God can you please save us from this hell on earth that we live on
Plea for divine intervention to save humanity from a disastrous existence.
Cleanse
Repetition of the plea for cleansing.
Cleanse
-Can you please save us
-Cleanse
-Cleanse
-I know that we're at fault
Acknowledgment of collective fault or responsibility.
Cleanse
Reiteration of the consequences - the world's end and loss of home.
Cleanse
-The world will cease to exist
-Cleanse
-Cleanse
-Our gorgeous home from us
-We're on the verge of no return
Recognition of being on the brink of irreversible consequences due to human actions.
Just look at what we've done
-Mankind we've done this to ourselves
Humanity is responsible for its own downfall through warfare and destructive inventions.
With war and killing machines
Highlighting the destructive nature of war and weaponry.
We're sitting on a time-bomb
A metaphorical representation of a precarious situation.
We watch as time ticks away
The passage of time intensifies the impending destruction.
Only more destruction will unfold
Prediction of more calamities to unfold.
Will we have time to fix this
Questioning whether there is time to rectify mistakes.
Now we know we don't have much time to right all of the wrongs
Reiteration of the urgency to correct wrongs with limited time.
Is there anybody that can help us right all of these wrongs
Seeking assistance from anyone who can help rectify mistakes.
Will you help carry us to the grave will you help bury all of the hate
Pleading for support to bury hatred and negativity.
Seems to me there's only hate and violence and corruption
Observation of prevalent negative elements like hate, violence, and corruption.
In this place
Expression of dissatisfaction with the current state of the world.
Cleanse
Repetition of the plea for cleansing and acknowledgment of collective fault.
Cleanse
-Can you please save us
-Cleanse
-Cleanse
-I know that were all at fault
-Cleanse
-Cleanse
-The world will cease to exist
-Cleanse
-Cleanse
-Our gorgeous home from us
-Cleanse
-Cleanse
-Can you please save us
-Cleanse
-Cleanse

-Cleanse
-Cleanse
-The world will cease to exist
-Cleanse
-Cleanse
-Our gorgeous home from us
Reiteration of the impending loss of the beautiful world due to human actions.
