A Dying Light
Rage Against the Fading Light: Unveiling Despair and Transformation
Lyrics
There was a flame somewhere dark
There was a flicker of hope in a dark place.
A dim light of hope that wished to last
A faint light of hope existed, desiring longevity.
At its end it knew dark is right
At the end of this hope, it acknowledged the prevalence of darkness.
The fade of existence
Describing the diminishing nature of life.
The perspective of a new dawn
Referring to the outlook of a potential new beginning.
Cold fear cries silent tears
Expressing a fear that silently sheds tears.
Broken hope leaves anger thoughts
Loss of hope gives rise to thoughts filled with anger.
All the moments I left behind
Reflecting on past moments left behind.
Now come as loss and despair
Those moments now manifest as a sense of loss and despair.
The empty solitude
Describing a state of emptiness and loneliness.
Reminds you that it’s gone
Acknowledging the absence and finality of what once existed.
Rage against the dying of the light
Quoting a famous line, emphasizing resistance against impending darkness.
Just rage tearing you up inside
The act of resisting and the internal struggle tearing one apart.
Shattered, gone, holed up in myself
Feeling broken, withdrawn, and isolated.
Timeless place between flesh and bone
Describing a timeless and profound space between the physical and the essence of being.
At the pain we find the reason
In pain, finding a reason and an answer to destiny.
An answer to fate
Discovering a response to the inevitable course of events.
The empty solitude
Reiteration of the empty loneliness as a reminder of what is no more.
Reminds you that it’s gone
Re-emphasizing the loss and absence that the solitude signifies.
Rage against the dying of the light
Reaffirmation of resistance against the fading light.
Just rage tearing you up inside
The internal conflict and torment caused by this resistance.
The empty solitude
Recurrence of the theme of emptiness and solitude.
Has showed me who I am
The loneliness has revealed the true identity of the speaker.
Rage against all I’ve lost
Continued resistance and rage against all that has been lost.
Just rage is what I’ve become
Final declaration of becoming a person consumed by rage.
