Death Dream
Eternal Redemption: Embracing the Shadows of a Death Dream
Lyrics
The first page was
The beginning was marked by something intense or significant.
the colour of blood
It resembled the color of blood, possibly indicating something ominous or significant.
it felt good too see it for myself,
Experiencing it personally was oddly satisfying despite previous knowledge.
I'd heard of lies before,
Previous encounters with falsehoods were nothing compared to this.
nothing like this though
The gravity of the situation was unparalleled.
the world will forget your sins in time
Over time, the world will forget your transgressions.
Pray to this new voice inside your head,
Encouragement to heed a new inner voice.
when they ask you what it says,
When questioned about it, endure the pain and confusion.
chew the glass and swallow,
Metaphorically endure the pain and negativity directed towards you.
their weapons can't hurt you now
Assurance that external harm is now ineffective.
Run out of ways to say,
Feeling exhausted from trying to communicate.
Run out of reasons to stay
No longer having motivations to remain.
Who will teach me how to lie to myself to stay sane
Questioning the need to deceive oneself to maintain sanity.
Run out of Gods to blame
No longer relying on higher powers to assign blame.
Run out of reasons to pray
No longer having reasons to pray.
Who will teach my how to lie to myself to stay sane
Questioning the need to deceive oneself for mental stability.
The last days were
The end was marked by something intense or significant.
the colour of blood,
Resembling the color of blood at the conclusion, perhaps signifying closure.
it felt good to see it to the end,
Finding satisfaction in witnessing the conclusion despite familiarity.
I've heard that voice before,
Familiarity with a voice that holds significance.
nothing like this though
The situation connected to this voice was unprecedented.
The world will forget your sins in time
Reiteration that the world will eventually forget one's wrongdoings.
This new deathwish now I've come alive,
A newfound desire for self-destruction has brought vitality.
now I notice when you lie,
Heightened awareness of falsehoods spoken by others.
chew the glass and swallow
Metaphorically enduring attacks and falsehoods without harm.
your weapons can't hurt me now
Feeling impervious to external harm or weapons.
Run out of ways to say,
Exhausted from trying to express oneself differently.
Run out of reasons to stay
No longer having reasons to remain in a situation.
Who will teach me how to lie to myself to stay sane
Questioning the necessity of self-deception for sanity.
Run out of Gods to blame
No longer attributing faults to higher powers.
Run out of reasons to pray
No longer finding reasons to pray.
Who will teach my how to lie to myself to stay sane
Questioning the necessity of self-deception for mental stability.
The world will forget your sins in time
Reiteration that time will cause the world to forget one's transgressions.
