Present for the End of the World
Embracing the Apocalypse: Good Old War's Musical Revelation
Lyrics
Pain, pain is in everything
Pain, pain is pervasive in all aspects of life
I'm not into suffering
Expressing a reluctance or disinterest in enduring suffering
Names, names were distinguishing
Names were used to distinguish things
The differences and the same thing
Highlighting the similarities between differences
If we can find our way
A call to find a path forward
I'll be present for the end of the world
Commitment to being present at the end of the world
I'll be present for the end of the world
Reiteration of the commitment
So much for all of these diamonds and pearls
Downplaying the value of material wealth (diamonds and pearls)
I might be present for the end of the world
Potential repetition of commitment to the end of the world
Tame, tame as the morning light
Describing oneself as calm, like the morning light
The curtains were closed at night
Reference to closed curtains at night, suggesting privacy or concealment
I wait, what is your alibi?
Asking for an explanation or justification
This story's not coming out right
Recognition that the current narrative is not unfolding correctly
If we can find our away
Reiteration of the call to find a path
I'll be present for the end of the world
Commitment to being present at the end of the world
I'll be present for the end of the world
Reiteration of the commitment
So much for all of these diamonds and pearls
Downplaying the value of material wealth (diamonds and pearls)
I might be present for the end of the world
Potential repetition of commitment to the end of the world
Listen, listen to me
Requesting attention, emphasizing personal energy
I've got this energy
Asserting possession of a certain energy
I might just lose it right now.
Expressing a potential loss of control or composure
If you feel me, I know you wanna be
Encouraging understanding or empathy
Something that I can love
Expressing a desire for a meaningful connection
If we can find our away
Reiteration of the call to find a path
I'll be present for the end of the world
Commitment to being present at the end of the world
I'll be present for the end of the world
Reiteration of the commitment
So much for all of these diamonds and pearls
Downplaying the value of material wealth (diamonds and pearls)
I might be present for the end of the world
Potential repetition of commitment to the end of the world
I'll be present for the end of the world
Reiteration of commitment to being present at the end of the world
I'll be present for the end of the world
Reiteration of the commitment
So much for all of these diamonds and pearls
Downplaying the value of material wealth (diamonds and pearls)
I might be present for the end of the world
Potential repetition of commitment to the end of the world
