The Fear
Eternal Echoes: Navigating Life's Transitions Through 'The Fear'
Lyrics
A cold night comes over my sheets
A sense of coldness envelops my bed
My thoughts drift away to the scenery
My thoughts wander towards the surroundings
What it will be like when you pass away
Contemplating what the experience of your passing will be like
Point of no return but yelling at you to stay
Approaching a point of no return, yet pleading for you to stay
This world isn't made
Asserting that this world is not designed for individual destinies
For individual fates
Highlighting a lack of consideration for personal fates
And nobody dies
Stating that nobody dies in the middle of their life
In the middle of their life
Emphasizing the unexpected nature of death
But everything stops
Everything comes to a halt
Everything drops
All aspects of life plummet
'Cause you deserve the whole world to stand still
Expressing that you deserve the world to pause when you pass away
The moment you die
The specific moment of death is singled out for significance
Everything stops
Reiterating that everything stops at the moment of death
Everything drops
Re-emphasizing the abrupt cessation of all things
I won't let one clock move, time shatters
Declaring a commitment to prevent time from progressing at the moment of death
The moment you die
Reiterating the significance of the moment of death
Day in day out we drive each other mad
Describing the daily challenges that drive people to madness
We're too different but why like that?
Questioning the reasons for differences that cause conflict
Isn't it enough for us to be here?
Pondering if simply existing together should be sufficient
Pull ourselves together as long as we have, my dear
Encouraging resilience and unity in the face of challenges
We'll forgive us everything on our very last day
Expressing forgiveness for everything on the last day of existence
In history we are
Highlighting the fleeting nature of our impact on history
Not a blink of an eye
Emphasizing the brevity of life in the grand scheme
How long will it take
Pondering the duration it takes to fade into obscurity
To be forgotten?
Raising the question of how long it takes to be forgotten
But everything stops
Reiterating the theme of everything coming to a stop
Everything drops
Re-emphasizing the abrupt plummeting of all things
'Cause you deserve the whole world to stand still
Reiterating that the world should stand still at the moment of death
The moment you die
Underlining the significance of the moment of death
Everything stops
Re-emphasizing that everything stops at the moment of death
Everything drops
Re-emphasizing the abrupt cessation of all things
I won't let one clock move, time shatters
Commitment to preventing the movement of time at the moment of death
The moment you die
Reiterating the significance of the moment of death
Home will be burning down
Visualizing the destruction of home at the moment of death
Soul will be freezing over
Imagining the soul freezing over with the passage of time
My path will be flooded away
Envisaging a personal path being washed away by the flow of time
And time shatters
Declaring the shattering of time at the moment of death
