Another Time
Eternal Questions: Life, Belief, and Time in Thunderstone's 'Another Time'
Lyrics
Another morning, another day
Reflecting the start of a new day or phase in life.
Another sunset is on it's way
Acknowledging the approach of another evening.
Another cold and sleepless night, another restless soul
Describing a recurring theme of sleeplessness and inner turmoil.
Another sorrow, another fear
Expressing another instance of sadness or distress.
Another smile turns to a tear
Highlighting the transient nature of happiness turning into sorrow.
Another undefined feeling takes over again
Conveying the presence of ambiguous emotions resurfacing.
Do you believe? That you can pull the strings together
Prompting a series of questions about belief in one's ability to overcome challenges and find direction in life.
Do you believe? That you can finally find your way
-Do you believe? That you can lead your own life
-Do you believe?
-Another life, another death
Touching upon the cycle of life and death.
Another birth without as breath
Mentioning a birth lacking the essence of life.
Another candle lights another dies away
Symbolizing the fleeting nature of existence with a burning candle.
Another peace, another war
Contrasting peace and war, suggesting constant struggles.
Another cause to fight for
Introducing various causes to fight for, indicating the complexity of life.
Another reason to stay here, or maybe another time?
Pondering whether there's a reason to persist in the current situation or wait for a different time.
Do you believe? That you can pull the strings together
Reiterating the questioning of belief in personal capability and autonomy.
Do you believe? That you can finally find your way
-Do you believe? That you can lead your own life
-Do you believe?
-The way you live
Emphasizing the consequences of one's actions and the learning process through life's challenges.
You take before you give
-You'll pay the price
-You'll pay it once or twice
-Before you learn
-You'll have to take your turn
-Don't wait for another time
Advising against procrastination, urging action in the present instead of waiting for an unspecified future.
Another morning, another day
Cyclically referencing the passage of time with the start of a new day.
Another sunrise is on it's way
Anticipating another sunrise, symbolizing hope and new beginnings.
Another night, silent and peaceful
Describing a night characterized by silence and tranquility.
