Lyrics
When I'm at the pearly gates
When facing judgment after death
This will be on my videotape, my videotape
Documenting events on a videotape for reflection
Mephistopheles is just beneath
Mephistopheles, a symbolic figure of evil, is nearby
And he's reaching up to grab me
A sense of impending doom as evil tries to take hold
This is one for the good days
Reflecting on good days
And I have it all here
Having a comprehensive record of life experiences
In red, blue, green
Details captured in red, blue, green (possibly representing emotions)
In red, blue, green
Repetition emphasizes the vividness of memories
You are my center
Addressing a significant person as the emotional core
When I spin away
Feeling lost or distant, possibly emotionally
Out of control on videotape
Losing control, captured on videotape
On videotape
Repetition emphasizes the recording of events
On videotape
Further emphasis on the recorded nature of the moment
On videotape
On videotape
-On videotape
-On videotape
-This is my way of saying goodbye
Expressing farewell in a unique way
Because I can't do it face to face
Difficulty facing someone directly
So I'm talking to you before
Communicating before an anticipated event
No matter what happens now
Assuring someone that fear is unwarranted
You shouldn't be afraid
Encouraging confidence in the face of uncertainty
Because I know today has been
Reflecting on the perfection of the present day
The most perfect day I've ever seen
Concluding with the recognition of an exceptionally perfect day
