Lyrics

Which of you am I to lay down first

Contemplating who among the listeners should be the first to die.

To shake the coffin or spread the dust

Considering whether to disturb the peace of the dead or to accept mortality.

To say hell-o and greet the underworld

Reflecting on the idea of greeting the afterlife or facing death head-on.

Or fly the moment over hill to burn

Debating whether to seize the moment and live fully or face the consequences.

Feel the lightning, or be the lightning

Choosing between experiencing a powerful event or becoming that powerful force.


Enter stellar levigate a name

Entering a celestial or otherworldly state, emphasizing the insignificance of individual identity.

Among the others we all look the same

Acknowledging the uniformity of humanity in the grand scheme of existence.


Your time is flying now high in the air

Highlighting the fleeting nature of time and the urgency to make the most of it.

So sad to see you got nothing to say

Expressing sorrow over someone who seems to have lost their voice or purpose.

The ravens are crying you home

Symbolizing death with the crying of ravens, guiding the individual home.

'Cause the heaven is not you

Rejecting the notion that the afterlife is a heavenly place for the person in question.

You'll feel the fire

Anticipating the experience of intense emotions or challenges, perhaps related to the afterlife.

And i will be joining you too

Expressing a willingness to join the person in facing the anticipated challenges.


Two black ravens sitting on a fence

Depicting two ravens observing humanity and finding amusement in its struggles.

Cackle laughing at mankind itself

Highlighting the absurdity of human existence, as observed by the ravens.

Loving how it feel to be that free

Enjoying the liberating feeling of being free from human troubles.

And leaving us behind in misery

Leaving humanity behind in a state of sorrow and suffering.

Feel the lightning, or be the lightning

Reiterating the choice between experiencing or embodying a powerful force.


Enter stellar levigate a name

Repeating the idea of entering a celestial or otherworldly state, emphasizing a shared identity.

Among the others we shall look the same

Reiterating the uniformity of humanity in the grand scheme of existence.


Your time is flying now high in the air

Reiterating the transient nature of time and the urgency to live fully.

So sad to see you got nothing to say

Expressing sadness over someone's apparent lack of meaningful communication.

The ravens are crying you home

Symbolizing death with the crying of ravens, guiding the individual home once again.

'Cause the heaven is not you

Rejecting the idea that the afterlife represents a heavenly destination for the person.

You'll feel the fire

Anticipating the experience of intense emotions or challenges, reiterating the willingness to join.

And i will be joining you too

Expressing a commitment to face the anticipated challenges alongside the person.
