Wish The End Was Near
Yearning for Apocalypse
Lyrics
When the moon falls from the night sky
Expressing a dramatic event - the falling of the moon from the night sky.
And the stars vanish from sight
Describing the disappearance of stars from view, creating a sense of emptiness.
I'll look for you as the plume of ashes fill our lungs
Amidst a catastrophic event, searching for a loved one while acknowledging danger (plume of ashes).
Not to be weird but I wish the end was near
Expressing a desire for the end of the world, a somewhat unconventional wish.
Tell the truth will you look for me too?
Questioning whether the other person would also search for the speaker in a dire situation.
Cause I've heard you're with someone just like you
Acknowledging rumors about the person being with someone similar, introducing an element of doubt.
Turn off the news forget my shoes then I'll drive real far to meet you
Choosing to disconnect from reality (turn off the news, forget my shoes) to pursue the connection.
Not to be weird but I wish the end was near
Reiterating the desire for the end of the world in a somewhat casual manner.
As our oxygen begins to go
Noting the decline of available oxygen, potentially referencing a doomsday scenario.
You'll pull me in then I'll let you know
Anticipating a closeness with the loved one during the crisis.
How I really feel cause soon we won't be here
Expressing a willingness to share true feelings before the inevitable end.
What's the point of heading home
Raising a rhetorical question about the purpose of returning home in the face of impending doom.
When we've got front row seats to the nuclear show
Viewing a disastrous event as a spectacle, with the speaker having front-row seats.
As the clouds turn red and we're halfway dead
Describing the visual impact of the catastrophic event, involving red clouds and imminent danger.
Not to be weird but I wish the end was near
Repeating the desire for the end, maintaining a somewhat peculiar tone.
I know it's not fair to ask for the end
Acknowledging the unfairness of wishing for the end but expressing a desire for reunion.
But it's the only way we'll meet again
Believing that the only way to reunite is through the end, emphasizing the extremity of the situation.
When the seas start to recede
Describing another catastrophic event involving the receding of seas and a collision with Neptune.
And the Earth collides with Neptune
Reiterating the desire for the end in the context of the described environmental calamity.
Not to be weird but I wish the end was near
Expressing a wish for the end amid decreasing oxygen levels.
As our oxygen begins to go
Anticipating a reciprocal expression of true feelings as oxygen becomes scarce.
I'll pull you in then you'll let me know
Envisioning a mutual understanding of emotions before the impending end.
How you really feel cause soon we won't be here
Expressing the urgency to share genuine feelings before the inevitable conclusion.
What's the point of heading home
Pondering the purpose of returning home in the face of imminent disaster.
When we've got front row seats to the nuclear show
Recalling the idea of having front-row seats to a catastrophic event, emphasizing the spectacle.
As the clouds turn red and we're halfway dead
Reiterating the visual impact of the disaster, including red clouds and the realization of approaching death.
When the world burns down and our time runs out
Describing the final moments as the world burns down and time runs out.
Not to be weird but I wish the end was near
Repeating the unconventional desire for the end, maintaining a somewhat detached tone.
Not to be weird but I wish the end was near
Reiterating the peculiar wish for the end, concluding the song with a repeated sentiment.
