Lyrics
How are we supposed to live in a world full of hate
Questioning how to live in a world filled with hate.
Full of hate
Reiteration of the world being full of hate.
When there is only one ticket to your pearly gate
Reflecting on the uncertainty of accessing a better place (perceived as pearly gates).
Let us in Let us in Let us in
Pleading to be allowed into the better place, emphasizing urgency.
Take off your masks
Request to reveal true selves by removing masks, suggesting authenticity.
You push and pull and throw us around
Expressing the feeling of being manipulated and tossed around.
Are we just living for fallacies and not made to last
Questioning the purpose of life if it is based on falsehoods and not enduring.
As days pass we destroy our systems
Commenting on the gradual destruction of societal systems.
The ones you put into place
Highlighting the impact on systems by those in power, possibly rebellious.
Because we won't listen
Suggesting resistance to authority and refusal to heed instructions.
Show me your fucking face
Demand to reveal one's true self or intentions.
How are we to know if there's another world
Raising questions about the existence of another, better world.
How are we to know this isn't the end
Pondering whether the current state is the end or if there's more.
Is this the end
Repetition emphasizing uncertainty about whether it is the end.
Is this the end
-Is this the end
-Is this the end
-No, I refuse to let this get away
Refusal to let go of hope or a positive outcome.
Why is your answer to just bow and pray
Questioning the wisdom of resorting to submission and prayer.
Let me see the road
Desire to explore an unconventional path in life.
A path less traveled
Reference to a less-traveled path as a metaphor for uniqueness.
If you're my saving grace
If someone is a savior, a plea to reveal themselves.
then show me your face
Insistence on seeing the true identity of the potential savior.
How are we to know if there's another world
Repetition of questions about the existence of another world and uncertainty about the end.
How are we to know this isn't the end
-Is this the end
-Is this the end
-Is this the end
-Is this the end
-These thoughts in me head are suffocating me
Feeling overwhelmed by suffocating thoughts.
When we all die how will we be received?
Pondering how people will be received after death, questioning the afterlife.
Is this the end
Reiteration and emphasis on the uncertainty of whether it is the end.
Is this the end
