Lyrics
"Don't run away I'll keep you safe"
Assurance of protection, discouraging escape
Was something he would tell the ones who're led astray
Addressing those led astray
With red eyes
Characteristic description, possibly ominous
Like the sky
Comparing the eyes to a red sky
He drives them in
Leading or drawing individuals in
And watching as the bridge of life falls from within
Observing the collapse of the bridge of life
The rattling
Describing a state of disturbance
The in-between
Existing in an intermediate state
Traveling to heaven's gate now
Journeying towards heaven
And now the bridge is collapsing
Noting the collapse of the bridge
Under the weight of the dead
The weight of the deceased causing destruction
Once again
Repetition of the collapse of the bridge
"Now stay with me so you'll never be falling in the river red"
Encouraging companionship to avoid a tragic end
The moth will take them all under his wing
The moth as a protector, concealing a gruesome sight
To hide the horrid scene
The moth shielding from a disturbing scene
There he stays
Describing the moth's dwelling place
In eternal day
In an everlasting state of brightness
To stop the souls from wandering
Preventing souls from wandering into destruction
Into their doom
Advising against wrongdoing in the eyes of god
And doing wrong in the eyes of god
Highlighting the consequences of defying divine order
The tyranny that Heaven brings
Resistance against oppressive heavenly power
Is blocked by familiar wings
Familiar wings serving as a barrier
"Don't run away I'll keep you safe"
Reiteration of the assurance of protection
He tells the souls at Heaven's gates to change their fate
Instructing souls at Heaven's gates to alter their destiny
In sorrow, they follow straight into "Hell"
Souls willingly entering a place associated with suffering
A hideout hidden in dirt and fire by Satan himself
A concealed refuge marked by Satan's influence
There they stay
Depicting a continued existence in a bright state
In eternal day
Preventing souls from straying into ruin
To stop the souls from wandering
Advising against wrongdoing in the eyes of god
Into their doom
Repetition of the theme of averting doom
And doing wrong in the eyes of god
Highlighting the consequences of defying divine order
The tyranny that Heaven brings
Resistance against oppressive heavenly power
Is blocked by familiar wings
Familiar wings serving as a barrier
Hand in hand, they face the storm forevermore
Emphasizing unity in facing eternal challenges
