Lyrics

No more of this no more of this

No more desire for the current state

No more of this no more of this

Reiteration of the desire for change


Neither rage nor fear nor love nor bliss

Rejecting intense emotions like rage, fear, love, and bliss

No more of this no more of this

Continued rejection of the current situation


Now is the time to begin

Emphasizing the present moment as the starting point

Now is the time to close me in

Encouraging closure or confinement

Let the blue fires sing

Invoking a metaphorical reference to blue fires singing

Bring the hammer down to break my wing

Expressing a desire for a decisive and forceful action


No time to breathe no time to think

Highlighting a lack of time for basic needs like breathing and thinking

Time to swallow the key it's time to sleep

Suggesting the need to silence oneself and embrace sleep


No more of this no more of this

Reiteration of the desire to end the current situation

No more of this no more of this

Repeating the rejection of the current state


Now is the time to pay

Emphasizing the time for consequences or payment

There will be no bright shining new day

Rejecting the idea of a bright and positive future day

No tomorrow, no open way

Denying the existence of a tomorrow or an open path

Now is the time to finally walk away

Deciding it is time to walk away definitively

No more of this no more of this

Reiteration of the desire for change

No more of this no more of this

Repeating the rejection of the current state


Goodbye lovers goodbye friends

Bidding farewell to lovers and friends

Goodbye daughter goodbye sons

Bidding farewell to the speaker's children

I pray to heaven that you exist

Expressing a hope for the existence of loved ones in a healing mist

Within a cloud of healing mist

Desiring a pervasive healing presence

That permeates your deepest being

Wishing for a deep and thorough healing

That bathes your soul with

A light that cleans

Describing a light that cleanses the soul

And may an ocean of tiny stars

Imagining an embrace by an ocean of tiny stars

Enfold and hold you wherever you are

Wishing for protection and comfort wherever the loved ones are


More, more give me more

Expressing a desire for more, possibly indicating a yearning for a different or better experience
