Dead
Eternal Echoes: Unveiling Desires and Fates
Lyrics
Johnny was a good boy, someone you could trust
Johnny was a trustworthy person.
But Johnny had a heart filled to the brim with lust
Despite being good, Johnny had strong desires and lust.
And Johnny wasn't stupid, but Johnny wouldn't think
Johnny was not foolish, but he often acted without thinking.
Cause Johnny's ears were closed to anything but instinct
Johnny was closed-minded and followed his instincts without considering other perspectives.
Now Johnny was was well off, but Johnny, he was bored
Although financially stable, Johnny felt bored with his life.
And Johnny had desire, an ego, and a sword
Johnny had strong desires, a big ego, and a tendency for conflict.
Now Johnny's dead
Repetition emphasizes Johnny's demise; he is now dead.
Johnny's dead
-Johnny's dead
-Johnny's dead
-Johnny's dead
-Johnny's dead
-Johnny's dead
-Johnny's dead
-Now Balgruuf was a kind man, without any greed
Balgruuf was a generous person but had many dependents to support.
But Balgruuf, he had eight different mouths to feed
Despite his kindness, Balgruuf had a significant responsibility to provide for eight individuals.
And Balgruuf never cared too much for gold
Balgruuf didn't prioritize wealth, but he recognized its importance for sustenance.
But gold buys bread and bread buys growing old
Gold is necessary for survival, and Balgruuf understood its role in sustaining life.
And Balgruuf was no fighter, but his wealth needed to mend
Balgruuf was not a fighter, but he sought ways to use his wealth for survival.
So Balgruuf went on a means to his end
Balgruuf took actions to secure his well-being and that of his dependents.
Now Balgruuf's dead
Repetition emphasizes Balgruuf's demise; he is now dead.
Balgruuf's dead
-Balgruuf's dead
-Balgruuf's dead
-Balgruuf's dead
-Balgruuf's dead
-Balgruuf's dead
-Balgruuf's dead
-And Johnny's dead
The repetition underscores the widespread death in the town.
Johnny's dead
-Johnny's dead
-Johnny's dead
-They're all dead
-They're all dead
-They're all dead
-Yeah, this whole fucking town is dead
The entire town is portrayed as dead, possibly symbolizing a collective downfall or tragedy.
