Lyrics

I'm sure I told you baby

I previously informed you, my dear

This day would finally come

This anticipated day has finally arrived

It's been so long forgotten

Memories of it have been neglected for a long time

The place where we are from

Referring to the place of our origin


Ashes to ashes we are

We, as humans, ultimately become insignificant

Glorious dust to dust

Highlighting the transient nature of life

There is no place on Earth where

No location on Earth where a divine being will regain our confidence

A god will hold our trust again

Expressing a loss of faith in higher powers


It's time

Indicating a significant moment

Bring only what you need

When moving forward, bring only essential belongings

(I don't care where I'm going

(The narrator is indifferent about the destination)

But I won't leave without you)

(Emphasizing the importance of not leaving alone)

It's time

Repeating the idea of a crucial moment

Bring only what you need

Same as line 12, reiterating the need for essentials

(I know where I'm going

(The narrator is certain about the destination)

But I won't leave without you)

(Stressing the importance of companionship)


I did my best to show you

Efforts were made to demonstrate or prove something

But now you're on your own

Now, you're left to navigate your path alone

That road seems like forever

The journey seems endless and particularly isolating

And even more alone

Intensifying the feeling of solitude


Ashes to ashes we are

Reiteration of human insignificance

Glorious dust to dust

Repeating the idea of life's fleeting nature

This is the Hell on Earth where

Describing the current state as a metaphorical hell

In gods we'll never trust again

We will never place trust in gods again


I don't know where I'm going

The narrator is uncertain about the destination

Oh I can't live without you

The narrator expresses an inability to live without a specific person
