Lyrics
Looking up on a rusted skyline
Observing a deteriorated city skyline
Looking back on your last day
Reflecting on one's final day
Vines climb, top the spire
Vines reaching the top of a tower
Your blood in my veins
Sense of connection through shared blood
High lights flood the fogged-out road
Bright lights illuminating a foggy road
Can't tell the old man from a ghost
Difficulty distinguishing between the elderly and spirits
Long days on the rushing river
Long periods spent on a fast-moving river
Long days with your oldest friends
Extended time with lifelong companions
Long days where you can't stop laughing
Days filled with unstoppable laughter
Well never be here again
Realization that this moment won't recur
Mamas calling to you, boy
A mother's urging to return home
Best get home now
Advising to go back home promptly
Long boats, froze into the lake
Boats stuck in the frozen lake for a long time
God knows, He made a few mistake
Implying human fallibility by God
Touched the void but it was a little late
Experiencing emptiness or a void, too late to rectify
To get turned around
Missed opportunity to change direction
Ain't no rhyme or reason
No discernible logic or opportunity for retries
Ain't no second takes
No chance for a second attempt
Call it love or call it treason
Describing an indelible mark or impact
Can't wash these marks away
Consequences that cannot be erased
Ashes falling like the snow
Comparing falling ashes to snow on structures
On the bridges down below
Observing ashes falling on bridges below
Open eyes in the last lights dim
Being awake as the last light fades
All those memories come flood back in
Recollection of numerous memories flooding in
In the light of the morning
Reflection in the morning's light
Your breath rises to the wind
Seeing one's breath dissipate into the wind
The pain is gone
Freedom from pain or suffering
The pain is gone
Confirmation of the absence of pain
