The Fall
Eternal Descent: Shadows of Despair in 'The Fall'
Lyrics
A dark cloud surrounding me
A sense of darkness and negativity surrounds the speaker.
All I live for dead and gone
Everything the speaker once cherished or lived for is now lost and no longer exists.
No one hears our cries
The speaker feels unheard, possibly in a state of distress or suffering.
Drowned out by vicious, twisted lies
The genuine cries of the speaker are drowned out by deceitful and malicious lies.
My gut falls
The speaker experiences a sinking feeling, possibly indicating despair or hopelessness.
As we die in vain in die alone
Expressing a sense of futility, the speaker contemplates a pointless and solitary death.
There's only death in the end for us
The ultimate fate for the speaker is death, emphasizing a bleak outlook on life.
I want asylum here but there's no one near that I trust
The speaker desires refuge or protection, but there is a lack of trustworthy individuals nearby.
These godless men of sin they murder, pillage, cleanse away
Describing a group of immoral individuals who commit violence and destruction.
They come for me like I'm nothing
The speaker feels targeted and devalued, as if considered insignificant.
They know I'm falling
A realization that the speaker is descending into a negative state or situation.
There's nothing left in the end for us
Reiterating the theme of an inevitable, grim conclusion for the speaker.
I want asylum here but there's no one near that I trust
Expressing the desire for refuge again, emphasizing the absence of trustworthy companions.
These godless men of sin take life from us with less to live for
Elaborating on the destructive nature of the immoral individuals, stealing the joy of living.
They come for me like I'm nothing
Repeating the theme of feeling devalued and targeted by others.
They know I'm falling
A reaffirmation of the speaker's awareness of their decline or negative state.
They know that I'm falling now
Others are aware of the speaker's descent or struggles, possibly indicating a lack of privacy.
