Where the Dead Sleep
Eternal Regrets: Where Mistakes Lead in The Zheroes' Melodic Tale
Lyrics
One mistake can drive anyone insane
One mistake can lead to significant mental distress for anyone.
It all depends on what makes you tick
The outcome depends on what motivates or drives each individual.
It seems we were each other's, darling
Suggests a past romantic connection with a term of endearment.
A small embrace becomes a nasty trick
A seemingly innocent gesture turns into a harmful deception.
Why did it have to go this way?
Expressing regret and questioning the choices that led to the current situation.
Why did we think that we'd get away?
Reflecting on unrealistic expectations and the consequences of those beliefs.
I don't know why, but I know
Uncertain about the reasons but acknowledging the reality of the situation.
It should have never got this far yet here we are
Acknowledging that the situation shouldn't have escalated to this point, but it did.
Falling away in permanent slumber
Describing a state of perpetual slumber as a consequence of actions.
Paying eternal debts as we sing
Paying enduring consequences for actions while singing, suggesting remorse.
How lovers meet at six feet under
Imagery of lovers meeting in death, highlighting the permanence of the situation.
Too bad we were only a one time thing
Regret over a missed opportunity for a lasting connection.
Wasted destinies intertwined with irony
Destinies wasted with an ironic twist, suggesting unfortunate outcomes.
A travesty for two equally misfortunate cheaters
Describing a tragedy involving two equally unfortunate individuals who cheated.
Bound by circumstance to face the truth
Being bound by circumstances to confront the truth of the situation.
It should have never got this far yet here we are
Reiteration that the situation shouldn't have progressed this far, but it did.
Cuz we failed to be elusive from the people that we vowed to be exclusive to
Failure to maintain exclusivity, facing consequences from those they promised to be exclusive to.
Falling away in permanent slumber
Repetition of the theme of falling into a perpetual slumber as a consequence.
Paying eternal debts as we sing
Continuation of paying enduring consequences while singing, emphasizing the lasting impact.
How lovers meet at six feet under
Reiteration of lovers meeting in death, emphasizing the finality of the situation.
Too bad we were only a one time thing
Expressing regret over the fleeting nature of the connection.
Falling away in permanent slumber
Repetition of the theme of falling into a perpetual slumber as a consequence.
Lovers meet at six feet under
Reiteration of lovers meeting in death, underscoring the inevitability of the outcome.
We were only a one time, only a one time, only a one time thing
Emphasizing that the connection was only a one-time occurrence, reinforcing the transience of the relationship.
