Endless War
Endless War: Unveiling the Depths of Fear and Struggle
Lyrics
I live inside your deepest fear
I am a presence within your deepest fears.
When time comes be sure I will be near
When the time comes, I will be close by.
I live inside your fearful thought
I exist in the fearful thoughts within you.
The one who serves the drink of your last call
Referring to being the cause of one's demise, serving the metaphorical "drink" of their last moments.
Beneath you earth is shaking what's left for you to pray
The ground beneath you is trembling, leaving little for you to pray for.
All hopes, all dreams, ally agonies gone for good to stray
All hopes, dreams, and agonies have vanished, leaving you to wander aimlessly.
Do you live in pleasure or do you live on knees
Asking if one lives a life of pleasure or subservient on their knees.
Desperation, my appetite to please
Expressing a willingness to please through desperation.
Ignore
Command to disregard something.
What for
Questioning the purpose or reason for an action.
I choose an endless war
Choosing to engage in an eternal conflict or struggle.
I stand or fall
Declaring a commitment to either stand or fall in the chosen battle.
I fight
Engaging in a fight.
I choose an endless war
Reiterating the choice of an everlasting war.
So here I come riding the pale horse of death
Symbolic depiction of approaching death with a pale horse.
While you think I'm sleeping, you feel my darkest breath
While others believe the speaker is dormant, their ominous presence is felt.
And if you seek survival, you will need to struggle
Survival requires continuous struggle and effort.
To keep your head where it belongs, it is some kind of trouble
Maintaining composure and sanity is troublesome.
Ignore
Command to ignore something.
What for
Questioning the purpose or reason for ignoring.
I choose an endless war
Reaffirming the choice of an unending conflict.
I stand or fall
Commitment to stand or fall in the ongoing war.
I fight
Actively participating in the fight.
I choose an endless war
Reiterating the choice of an everlasting war.
Do you think you're strong enough to stand on your own feet
Questioning one's strength to stand independently.
Pathetic do you search one single seed to feed
Describing someone as pathetic, searching for sustenance.
But what if all you see, you feel, is simple an illusion
Suggesting that what is perceived may be an illusion.
Staring at the mirror, braindead confusion
Facing confusion and emptiness when looking in the mirror.
Feel the flames roaring, burning and destroying
Experience the destructive force of flames obliterating signs of life.
Every single sign of human life
Highlighting the continuous nature of the battle, with nothing taken for granted.
This battle never ended, no fight was for granted
The speaker has survived battles in a metaphorical rain of fire.
But through this rain fire I survived
Emphasizing survival amidst the destruction.
Will you live in pleasure or will you live on knees
Choice between living in pleasure or subservient on knees through desperation.
Desperation, my appetite to please
Expressing a willingness to please through desperation.
Ignore
Command to ignore something.
What for
Questioning the purpose or reason for ignoring.
I choose an endless war
Reaffirming the choice of an unending conflict.
I stand or fall
Commitment to stand or fall in the ongoing war.
I fight
Actively participating in the fight.
I choose an endless war
Reiterating the choice of an everlasting war.
WAR!
Emphatic declaration of war.
