Standing at the Gates of Hell
Echoes of Redemption: Standing Strong at Hell's Threshold
Lyrics
The clock is ticking there's no time
The passage of time is limited, and there is urgency.
to find a way
There's not enough time available to discover a solution.
This time I couldn't hide my crime
The speaker couldn't conceal a wrongdoing this time.
We're dying more each day
There's a sense of gradual decay or demise affecting us.
How can I unlock the truth
The truth is elusive, and the speaker contemplates how to uncover it.
it's hiding here with me
The truth is within the speaker, possibly hidden or repressed.
Way back in my broken youth
Reflecting on a troubled past, perhaps marked by hardship.
Death will set us free
Death is portrayed as a liberator from suffering.
We're standing at the gates of hell
Confronting a challenging or dire situation, metaphorically described as the gates of hell.
Hoping we could make it back
A hope to overcome the challenging situation and return safely.
Try to find our way back home
Attempting to find a way back to a place of safety or familiarity.
But you will leave me here alone
An anticipation of being left alone by someone important.
Is this our story time will tell
Wondering if their collective experience will be remembered over time.
if I will let you down
Anxiety about disappointing or failing someone.
Am I caught under your spell
Questioning if they are influenced or controlled by another person.
Speak before I drown
An urgent plea for communication before succumbing to difficulties.
How can I unlock the truth
Reiteration of the struggle to uncover the truth within.
It's hiding here with me
The truth remains concealed within the speaker.
Way back in my broken youth
Reflecting on a troubled past, possibly marked by brokenness.
Death will set us free
Death is seen as a means of liberation from past struggles.
We're standing at the gates of hell
Reiteration of confronting a dire situation at the gates of hell.
Hoping we could make it back
Rekindling hope to overcome the challenging situation.
Try to find our way back home
Attempting to find a way back to a place of safety or familiarity.
But you will leave me here alone
Reiteration of the anticipation of being left alone.
Standing at the gates of hell
Reaffirmation of confronting a dire situation at the gates of hell.
Standing at the gates of hell
-We're standing at the gates of hell
Reiteration of confronting a dire situation at the gates of hell.
Hoping we could make it back
Rekindling hope to overcome the challenging situation.
Try to find our way back home
Attempting to find a way back to a place of safety or familiarity.
But you will leave me here alone
Reiteration of the anticipation of being left alone.
Standing at the gates
The repeated theme of standing at the gates of hell, emphasizing the severity of the situation.
Of hell
Emphasizing the dire nature of the situation at the gates of hell.
Of hell
Reiteration of the intense and critical nature of the situation at the gates of hell.
