Endgame
Endgame: Journey through Desolation and Triumph
Lyrics
We’re in the endgame
Signifies being at the final stage or decisive point
Lost and found ourselves and our place
We’ve experienced moments of confusion but ultimately found our identity and purpose
Last chance, last breath
Emphasizes the urgency of the current moment, the final opportunity
Traversed the earth, the stars, within the depths of space
Explored extensively, physically and metaphorically, the vastness of existence
There wasn’t any other way
Implies there was no alternative path or choice
You’re gonna carry that weight
Repeated emphasis on the weight of responsibility one must carry
Believe me, believe me
-You’re gonna carry that weight
-Believe me, believe me
-Get ready for a world on fire we saw this was coming but we're all survivors
Anticipating a world in chaos, preparedness for upheaval
Stand by my side we'll struggle through stand in my way and we'll fight you too
Encouraging solidarity but warning against opposition
Reality breaks so does the mind now you'll feel fear for the very last time
Mentions the shattering of reality and the resulting fear
The cold hand of death must be destroyed I think you'll find our will is equal to yours
Asserts determination to defy death and resist its grip
You can run you can hide fate will arrive all the same
Regardless of efforts to escape or avoid, destiny will catch up
You call this mercy well I call you insane
Rejects the notion of mercy in the situation, labels it as madness
No balance without loss no power without cost
Expresses the principle of equivalent exchange, nothing gained without sacrifice
A soul for a soul the only thing that you love
Implies sacrificing something beloved for a greater cause
We're in the endgame
Reiterates being in the final phase or decisive moment
We're in the endgame now
-So do you want your story told
Asks about leaving behind a legacy or being remembered
I hope that they remember you
Expresses a hope for remembrance and legacy
I hope they remember you
-I don't wanna go
Repetition emphasizes reluctance or fear of facing an inevitable situation
I don't wanna go
-I don't wanna go
-I don't wanna go
-I don't wanna go
-What more could I lose
Expresses the desperation of having potentially lost everything
You can run you can hide fate will arrive all the same
Reiteration of the inevitability of fate and the refusal to accept mercy in this context
You call this mercy well I call you insane
-No balance without loss no power without cost
-A soul for a soul the only thing that you love
-We're in the endgame
Reiterates being at the final stage or decisive point
We're in the endgame now
