Lyrics

What will your life be like in the ground?

Contemplating the state of existence after death

Did you figure it out, or die of greed?

Questioning whether one understood life's purpose or succumbed to selfish desires

There's no way to fight the new diseases

Feeling helpless against new, incurable illnesses

We're here on our own, starting over

Sensing a restart or fresh beginning without external support


Now there's only embers

Suggesting remnants or fading remnants of a past

Why do I remember?

Questioning the reason behind remembering amidst destruction

Life is naught but rocks and dirt and bitterness now

Life seems bleak, filled with harsh elements and resentment

He'll lose the mother, you and all the others

Suggesting impending loss of family or loved ones

Who sit and watch the world burning in ourselves

Witnessing the world's destruction within oneself


What will your life be like in the dark now?

Speculating about the nature of existence in darkness or after death

Did you figure it out, did you feel alone?

Wondering if one comprehended life's essence and felt isolation

There's no way to fight the new diseases

Recognizing the futility against unstoppable diseases

And we're here in the cold 'til it's over

Existing in a cold, harsh reality until it concludes


Now there's only embers

Reiterating remnants or vestiges of the past

Why do I remember?

Questioning the purpose of retaining memories amid devastation

Life is but a burning rotten stinking ground

Depicting life as a putrid, decaying, and desolate state

Here we're young and ugly, only if we're lucky

Expressing that youthfulness and attractiveness are fleeting and not guaranteed

We get to watch the ones we love get sick and break down

Observing the painful experience of watching loved ones suffer and deteriorate
