Lyrics
The light fades slowly
The brightness diminishes gradually.
The earth rotates in moderation
The planet turns with moderation, suggesting a measured pace or balance.
A breeze breathes through
A gentle wind passes through.
The open window
Through an open window.
On cathartic hearts so swollen they could burst through the floor
Describing hearts so emotionally charged that they feel on the verge of bursting.
Dry eyes are left alive
Eyes that have shed tears remain alive.
To consume the glamorous page
They absorb or take in the attractive aspects of life.
Devour syntaxic pageantry
To consume and enjoy the elaborate and symbolic aspects of language.
They miss understanding
They misunderstand or fail to grasp.
They will take in pale shadows aroused by reflection
They will accept faint images stimulated by reflection.
No cause for interpretation
No need for explanation or analysis.
Sound provides the context
Sound serves as the setting or environment.
Where the glow is unclear
Where the radiance is not clear or evident.
Another strike will crush
Another negative event will crush.
Images of hope and reason
Depicting images related to optimism and logic.
The thoughts that filtered through this hollow voice found meaning
Meaning is discovered in the thoughts that passed through an empty or echoing voice.
Darkness flowed from open wounds
Darkness emanates from wounds that are exposed.
And finally took refuge with memories lost in fugue
Finally finds solace in memories lost in a state of amnesia.
As the vestiges of day are leaving
As the remnants of daylight depart.
Avarice ascends to be
Greed rises to become the sole driving force.
The only motivation
It becomes the primary motivation for the current and future generations.
For this and many generations
This cold air behind the glass symbolizes an impending conclusion or termination.
But the cold air behind the glass sings of an end
The chilly air beyond the window suggests an approaching end or finale.
