Visions
::Bring Me The Horizon:: Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is a Call to arms, So grab your guns and get your horses
Only the dead have seen the end of this fight.
This is a Call to arms, so all you fallen soldiers sing with me,
Death or Glory

So march with me if you believe there's any hope for us.
I've been hiding in these trenches for far too long.
All is fair in war or so they tell me
All is fair in war or so they say
Come on, come on, there has to be a better way.
Get up, get up, let's leave this mess.
I know a place that we can get away from all of this.
Come on come on, get up, get up
I've been dreaming of us leaving everything and everyone we've ever known.
I've been thinking all these visions must be a sign, so hold on and don't let go.

No, we can't leave 'til you tell me everything.
So come clean, don't talk in tongues.
It's time to bring out your dead.
And all the skeletons that you've been hiding.
Tell me everything I need to know.
Bring out your dead, bring out your dead

So march with me if you believe there's any hope for us.
I've been hiding in these trenches for far too long.
All is fair in war or so they tell me
All is fair in war or so they say
Come on come on, get up, get up
I know a place that we can get away from all of this, yeah

I couldn't see a thing 'til I shut my eyes.
I never knew a thing 'til I lost my mind.
I would sell my soul to know it all, But I held the keys all this time

I couldn't see a thing 'til I shut my eyes.
I never knew a thing 'til I lost my mind.
I would sell my soul to know it all, But I held the keys all this time

I've been dreaming of us leaving everything and everyone we've ever known
I've been thinking all these visions must be a sign, so hold on and don't let go
I've been dreaming of us leaving everything and everyone we've ever known
I've been thinking all these visions must be a sign, so hold on and don't let go

Bring out your dead




Bring out your dead
Bring out your dead

Overall Meaning

"Visions" by Bring Me The Horizon is a call to arms to all soldiers who have fallen and all those who believe that there is hope for humanity. The song suggests that war is the only way to solve problems and that all is fair in war. The lyrics also suggest that the only way to escape the mess is by leaving everything and everyone we've ever known behind. The song is divided into two distinct sections, with the first section being a call to arms and the second section being a reflection on the cost of war and the personal sacrifices that come with it.


The first section of the song speaks of war and the need to fight for what we believe in. The line "Only the dead have seen the end of this fight" suggests that there may be no resolution to the conflict, but we continue to fight regardless. The song then speaks of leaving everything behind and finding a better place. The line "I've been dreaming of us leaving everything and everyone we've ever known" suggests a longing for peace and a desire to escape from the chaos of war.


The second section of the song is more reflective and introspective. The line "I couldn't see a thing 'til I shut my eyes" suggests that sometimes the only way to see things clearly is to close our eyes and look inward. The line "I never knew a thing 'til I lost my mind" suggests that sometimes we have to lose our minds to truly understand the world around us. The song ends with a repetition of the line "Bring out your dead," which serves as a reminder of the cost of war and the importance of not forgetting those who have fallen.
