A Million
Eternal Resistance: A Symphony of Love and Defiance
Lyrics
The night, presaged by a dying sun
The night is foreshadowed by the setting sun, symbolizing an approaching darkness.
The life and times of ascent and fall
Describes the experiences of rise and fall in life.
The dance has commenced in the fading glow
The dance begins as daylight fades.
A wall of pitch for the dying of light
Refers to a dark barrier as the light diminishes.
Protect us, keep us from all that would harm
Seeking protection from potential harm.
Encircle, encompass, guard over us all
Requesting all-encompassing protection for everyone.
Give up, give in light the night on fire
Encourages surrender, letting the night's challenges ignite one's spirit.
It sears, it derides and it leads us to fall
The night challenges, mocks, and guides towards failure.
Walk on, walk through imitations of hell
Moving forward despite facing hellish situations.
The movement, the rhythm the drums from afar
Highlights the importance of movement, rhythm, and distant drums.
The guilty are hanging from the killing tree
People deemed guilty are metaphorically hanging from a tree.
The cries from the depths in unison sing
Cries from the depths unite in a collective song.
Forgotten, abandoned, graceless and scorned
Emphasizes feelings of being forgotten, abandoned, and scorned.
Pleading unheeded the millions unknown
Plea for help goes unanswered for the millions unknown.
Walk on, walk on till dawn has come
Continuing the journey until the arrival of dawn.
The relentless unceasing of a million calls
Enduring the continuous and unrelenting calls of a million.
I know you too well and I know you by name
Expresses familiarity with someone known intimately.
I fought you, I defeated you time and again
Having fought and defeated a familiar adversary repeatedly.
I endure, I resist what is killing me
Facing and resisting something that is harmful.
An image invoked like a visage of hell
An evoked image akin to a hellish vision.
Submit to temptation taunting my soul
Yielding to temptation that teases the soul.
Unlock these restraints oh save us all
Calling for the removal of constraints for the salvation of all.
Hold on, hold on till dawn has come
Urging to endure and persist until the dawn arrives.
Endure and persist, no mercy without
Endurance and persistence without mercy.
The world in it's slumber has
Describing the world sleeping with time in its favor.
Time on it's side
Time is a powerful force.
Safe, unaware in a million dreams
Safe and unaware in countless dreams.
Love joins, unites love breaks us apart
Love both unites and separates, possessing the power to conquer.
The power to conquer here in our hearts
The strength to conquer resides within our hearts.
Enduring and sacred eternal as time
Love is enduring, sacred, and eternal like time.
For love, love alone will conquer all
Declares that love alone has the ability to conquer all.
