Vivid Dreams and Sacrifices: We Carried the Boat's Melancholic Odyssey
Lyrics
The story is unfinished
The narrative is incomplete or unresolved.
This self is incomplete
The sense of self is not fully formed or lacking.
Like birds unleashed I arrow
Similar to birds released, there's a sense of directed motion or purpose.
It does murder still undone
An act of killing remains unfinished or pending.
Thick night turns day dead
The transition from night to day is abrupt and harsh.
But my path is unswayed
Despite challenges, the speaker's path remains undeterred.
Trick light rips through shadow
A deceptive light pierces through darkness.
Your star ignites the blaze
Your influence or presence sparks a significant event.
Rumours whisper death upon me
Rumors suggest impending death for the speaker.
For your life my own I'd trade
The speaker is willing to sacrifice their life for another.
1000 days now melt in number
A significant amount of time has passed, possibly in longing.
Glory's hubris is careless made
The arrogance of glory has consequences.
Vivid
Intensely bright or lively.
Gleaming
Shining brilliantly.
Crushing
Overwhelming or oppressive.
Seeing you clear
The speaker sees you clearly and vividly.
Blinded
Unable to see due to overwhelming emotions or circumstances.
Foolish
Acting without wisdom or understanding.
Villain
A character with evil traits.
Stepping out from cover
Emerging from hiding or protection.
Took more than I can say
The speaker took more than they can express.
But for the right to see you again
To see you again, a steep price in blood must be paid.
A price only blood will pay
Emphasizing the high cost of reuniting.
I toil through visions
Working persistently through mental images or dreams.
I wish to dream of the day
Desiring to dream of a day yet to come.
When the pages left unwritten
Unwritten pages will eventually tell of a debt repaid.
Will speak of the debt paid
Anticipation of a future where sacrifices are recognized.
For your life my own I trade
A repetition emphasizing the speaker's willingness to trade their life for yours.
For your life my own I trade
Repetition to reinforce the intense commitment.

Let the world collapse
A call for the collapse of the world, embracing chaos.
Let chaos reign
An invitation for disorder and upheaval.
The skyline folds to meet me
The horizon bends to meet the speaker, signifying a change.
An aurora smiles grace upon all living creatures
An aurora symbolizes beauty and grace for all living beings.
Breathless, soaring, tearful elation
A state of breathlessness, elevation, and tears of joy.
My deus ex machina arrives
A divine intervention or solution arrives for the speaker.
Through the luster of my mirrored mind
Your presence is reflected in the speaker's thoughts.
Your fingers knit into mine
A close connection or intimacy represented by intertwined fingers.
And wet glare crystal eyes can stare
Tears and a penetrating gaze signify profound emotions.
Endlessly through worlds of our own creation
An enduring connection through self-created worlds.
