Seppuku
Eternal Shadows: A Tale of Loss and Redemption
Lyrics
(Reach out your hand, you know I can save you
Expressing the ability and willingness to help and save someone in need.
And you don't have to feel alone
Assuring the person they don't have to experience loneliness.
Ill turn back time and I will wake you
Promising to reverse time and bring the person back, introducing them to a new world.
To a world you've never known)
Describing the potential positive outcome of the offered assistance.
You left without saying goodbye
Addressing someone who departed without a proper farewell.
No note, no answers, just questions why
Highlighting the lack of communication, leaving behind unanswered questions.
The pain you left behind, I bear
Expressing the emotional burden caused by the person's departure.
I hope you find relief somewhere
Wishing for the person to find relief from their struggles.
These ghostly halls remind me of you
Connecting memories of the person to ghostly surroundings.
The tears I shed, I hope they make it through
Hoping that the tears shed will have a positive impact.
Beyond the Vail, landing next to you
Referencing a mysterious place ("Beyond the Vail") in proximity to the departed.
I wish I'd known what you had been through
Expressing regret for not knowing the person's struggles earlier.
So you have abandoned me
Stating the feeling of being abandoned by the departed individual.
Back and forth harder to be
Describing the emotional difficulty of the relationship.
Constant pain and misery, Conversations with you in my sleep
Detailing ongoing emotional pain and conversations with the departed in dreams.
Could you see it? The end of the line?
Pondering if the departed individual foresaw the end of their journey.
When your soul left it took a piece of mine
Expressing the profound impact of the person's departure on the speaker's own soul.
(Reach out your hand, you know I can save you
Reiteration of the offer to help and save the person.
And you don't have to feel alone
Reassurance that the person doesn't need to face loneliness.
Ill turn back time and I will wake you
Repeating the promise to reverse time and introduce the person to a new world.
To a world you've never known)
Reiteration of the potential positive outcome of the offered assistance.
Goodbye found a home on the tip of my tongue
Describing the word "goodbye" residing on the speaker's tongue, indicating difficulty expressing farewell.
Its not a taste I'd wish on anyone
Expressing the undesirable nature of the taste associated with saying goodbye.
I blame myself for this, a painful consequence
Taking responsibility and blaming oneself for the painful consequences of the departure.
A new found bitterness, Living with this emptiness
Acknowledging the development of bitterness and emptiness as a result of the departure.
(Reach out your hand, you know I can save you
Final repetition of the offer to help and save the person in need.
And you don't have to feel alone
Reassurance that the person doesn't need to endure loneliness.
Ill turn back time and I will wake you
Repeating the promise to reverse time and introduce the person to a new world.
To a world you've never known)
Reiteration of the potential positive outcome of the offered assistance.
