Kingdom Come
Yearning for Redemption: Unveiling the Depths of Kingdom Come
Lyrics
Does he come today or do I wait and wait for him to come?
Uncertainty about the arrival of someone important and the dilemma of whether to wait or move on.
I might be lost but he is on the way
While feeling lost, there is confidence that the awaited person is en route.
Am I a slave to desire being caged by his arms and his own reflection?
Questioning if being captivated by desire and confined in a relationship is akin to being a slave.
It might just be my only hope this spring
Expressing that the anticipation of this person's arrival is the speaker's only source of hope during spring.
(Realize that I'm young and I'm hoping for additional luck
Acknowledging youth and a desire for luck, with an admission of feeling hopeless.
And there's nothing that I would rather want to be than hopeless)
Emphasizing the preference for hopelessness over other possibilities.
May I be caned if I'm not able to abstain from the evil of
Willingness to endure punishment if unable to resist the allure of the evil associated with 'Kingdom Come.'
Kingdome Come, the mark it leaves will be the noblest thing
Connecting 'Kingdom Come' with a mark that will be a noble achievement.
Will I be lewd to the dude and crude to his prude and to his profession?
Pondering whether to behave inappropriately towards the awaited person and their values or profession.
It might lust be my only time to scream and to
Suggesting that the speaker may express intense feelings during this particular moment.
(Realize that I'm caught in a motion of habitual want
Acknowledging being stuck in a cycle of habitual desire and recognizing the emotional aspect that follows.
Then emotion occurs with all luck in a moment)
Highlighting the occurrence of emotion alongside luck in a fleeting moment.
Does he come today or do I wait and wait for him to come?
Reiteration of the uncertainty regarding the arrival of the awaited person.
I might be lost but he is on the way
Reemphasizing the feeling of being lost while anticipating the imminent arrival of the person.
And when he comes, if he comes, will he have the key to
Pondering if the awaited person, upon arrival, will hold the key to unlock the mysteries of 'Kingdom Come.'
The lock of Kingdom Come? l've likely always been lost at sea
Reflecting on a perpetual sense of being lost, drawing a metaphor to being adrift at sea.
