The Last Hunt
Eternal Farewell: Paddy and the Rats' Soaring Melody of Lost Belief
Lyrics
It's quarter past forever
Expressing a sense of enduring time, possibly a feeling of timeless waiting.
I'm a bit late but you're waiting
Acknowledging a delay, but someone is still patiently waiting.
I promised you
Referring to a commitment or assurance made to someone.
Together we'd conquer the skies
Shared ambition to achieve great things together, possibly metaphorical conquest of challenges.
And now your wings are open
Symbolizing readiness for departure or change.
Ready for you're sailing
Metaphorically, prepared for a journey or adventure.
Leaving me here all alone
Expressing a feeling of abandonment as the other person leaves.
Coz you have stopped believing
Suggesting loss of faith or trust, leading to disbelief.
You're excited bout the last hunt
Anticipation and eagerness for a final pursuit or endeavor.
Chasing new adventures
Pursuing new experiences or challenges.
After all what I want
Clarifying personal desires or needs after all is considered.
Just to say goodbye
Acknowledging the need to bid farewell.
Now my wings are broken
Indicating personal hardship or defeat through broken wings.
And your eyes are bleeding
Describing emotional pain or distress through bleeding eyes.
But yet you leave me all alone
Despite personal challenges, feeling abandoned by the departing person.
I also stop believing
Parallel loss of faith or trust in the relationship.
And the clock struck slowly never
Emphasizing the slow passage of time without the awaited person.
I'm still here, you're not waiting
Highlighting the persistent absence of the person who was supposed to wait.
As I say last time: together
Repeating the commitment to being together, but it remains unfulfilled.
It vanishes in the night
Symbolizing the disappearance or dissolution of the commitment during the night.
And now my wings are open
Expressing readiness again, but this time, there's no opportunity for progress.
But there's no wind for sailing
Using the metaphor of wings and wind to convey a lack of support for the intended journey.
Stuck to the earth alone
Feeling stuck on the ground, isolated and alone.
Again I start believing
Rediscovering belief or hope despite the challenging circumstances.
And the clock struck slowly never
Reiterating the slow passage of time without the awaited person.
I'm still here, you're not waiting
Underscoring the ongoing absence of the person who was supposed to wait.
As I say last time: together
Repeated commitment to being together, but it remains unrealized.
It vanishes in the night
Reiterating the disappearance or dissolution of the commitment during the night.
And now my wings are open
Expressing readiness again, but the conditions for progress are still unfavorable.
But there's no wind for sailing
Continuing the metaphor of wings and wind to convey a lack of support for the intended journey.
Stuck to the earth alone
Feeling grounded and isolated once more.
Again I start believing
Rediscovering belief or hope again despite the persisting challenges.
