600 Days
Eternal Yearning: Xavier Cicero's 600 Days of Hope and Loss
Lyrics
600 days since you've been gone
Reflecting on the 600 days since the person has been absent or passed away.
I wonder if you met God
Contemplating whether the person has encountered God after their departure.
And if you did can you now walk
Speculating on the possibility of the person walking in the afterlife if they met God.
And if you did can you now talk
Wondering if the person can now communicate verbally in the afterlife.
I hope to see you dancing in the grass
Expressing a desire to envision the person joyfully dancing in a pleasant environment.
Toes pointing as you smile and laugh
Imagining the person smiling and laughing while dancing in the grass.
I hope to see you free of pain at last
Hoping to see the person free from pain and suffering in the afterlife.
It's the only reason I hope heaven ain't a sham
Expressing a sincere hope that heaven, if it exists, is not deceptive or illusory.
I'm wishing that I wasn't so jaded
Expressing a desire to overcome cynicism and regret, possibly related to the absence of religious faith.
Wish I had religion just keep me meditated
Wishing for a religious foundation to bring inner peace through meditation.
Instead I'm sitting on the edge and sadly contemplating
Feeling a sense of melancholy and reflection while sitting on the edge and contemplating.
Wondering if God is keeping watch over my sister
Questioning whether God is watching over a sister, indicating concern for loved ones.
600 days since you've been gone
Reiterating the passage of time since the person's departure (600 days).
I wonder if you've met God
Repeating the contemplation of whether the person has encountered God.
And if you did can you now sing
Wondering if the person can now express themselves through singing in the afterlife.
And if you did can you grow wings
Speculating on the possibility of the person having wings in the afterlife.
I hope to see you wild and free
Expressing a hope to see the person in a carefree and unrestrained state, perhaps symbolized by running down the beach.
Running down the beach, into the sea
Imagining the person enjoying the sea and nature, possibly signifying a peaceful afterlife.
I hope to see you fall in love
Expressing a wish for the person to experience love in the afterlife.
I hope that it's divine and you feel beautiful
Desiring the person to have a sublime and beautiful experience in their newfound love.
But I'm feeling like a cynic
Feeling skeptical and cynical about life or the afterlife.
Don't think that I can help but to believe there is no winning
Expressing a belief that there is no ultimate victory or success.
We're buried six feet deep and then we're finished
Reflecting on mortality, implying that life concludes with burial.
Hope to God I'm wrong so I can see you when I perish
Expressing a desire to be proven wrong about the pessimistic views in order to reunite with the departed person.
