Lyrics
We’re falling stars from the sky
We are descending rapidly like stars falling from the sky.
Leaving the heavens, leaving the light
Leaving the heavens and the light behind.
There’s no place for us now
There is no place for us in the present situation.
Closing my eyes
Closing my eyes.
Wishing that I could turn back somehow
Expressing a desire to go back in time somehow.
Far outside of the gates
Finding ourselves far outside the gates.
Where the emptiness waits
Where emptiness awaits.
Nothing left here lose
There is nothing left to lose here.
Gone in the flames
Everything is consumed in flames.
Feeling the weight, the weight of it all
Feeling the overwhelming weight of it all.
We built an empire we thought was never ending
We constructed an empire believing it would last forever.
We tried to stop the fire but now there’s no pretending
We attempted to extinguish the fire, but now there's no denying the reality.
Beauty to dust
Transforming beauty into dust.
Paradise is lost, paradise is lost
Expressing the theme that paradise is lost.
Is the blood on my hands?
Questioning if there is guilt on the speaker's hands.
Am I to blame, I don’t understand
Expressing confusion and uncertainty about culpability.
In one breath it was gone
In a single moment, everything vanished.
Gold were the days
Recalling days of gold that have now been wasted under the burning sun.
That we laid to waste in this burning sun
