Excalibur
Lonely Quest: Unseen Keys' Excalibur Reveals the Struggle for Home
Lyrics
Somehow I knew that I could never pull the sword from the stone
Feeling incapable of overcoming a significant challenge or obstacle symbolized by pulling the sword from the stone.
I had no armor, sick and tired, too many broken bones
Experiencing vulnerability and fatigue, with numerous physical injuries and setbacks.
The sky was dark, the world was empty, I knew l was alone, alone, alone, I knew I was All alone
Feeling isolated in a dark and empty world, recognizing one's solitude and loneliness.
I knew you'd never call me your home
Repetition emphasizes the conviction that the person addressed will never consider the speaker as their home.
I knew you'd never call me your home
-I knew you'd never call me your home
-I knew you'd never call me your home
-I reckon I have tried so hard to fight the pain on my own,
Acknowledging the effort to endure and combat personal pain independently.
I've been cross-faded, barricaded from the towers of hope
Expressing a state of being emotionally distant and blocked from hopeful perspectives.
I tread on fire, but like a squire, I am but a foolish ghost, a ghost, a ghost, I am but a Foolish ghost
Comparing oneself to a foolish ghost, perhaps underscoring feelings of insignificance and folly.
I knew you'd never call me your home
Reiteration of the belief that the addressed person will not recognize the speaker as their home.
I knew you'd never call me your home
-I knew you'd never call me your home
-I knew you'd never call me your home
-The gentle choir of desire reminds me of the woe
Reflecting on the contrast between personal desire and the sorrow it brings.
When I see your righteous life seduced by the throne
Observing the corruption or downfall of a righteous life influenced by power and authority.
And now the strife of being barren follows me like a storm, a storm, a storm, it follows me Like a storm
Describing the persistent hardship of emptiness and desolation following the pursuit of desire.
I sought out to find the lady of the lake
Embarking on a quest to find a symbolic figure, the "lady of the lake."
But excalibur was not mine to take
Unable to obtain Excalibur, indicating a failure to attain a significant goal or object of power.
Straight towards the ground
Depicting a moment of defeat and despair, with the speaker heading towards a metaphorical solo grave.
My head hung in dismay
-As I walked toward my solo grave
-Somehow I knew that I could never pull the sword from the stone
Repeating the initial feelings of incapability and loneliness, emphasizing a sense of isolation.
I had no armor, sick and tired, too many broken bones
-The sky was dark, the world was empty, I knew l was alone, alone, I knew I was all alone
