Ascension
[:SITD:] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Scenes of life went through my mind
A feeling of floating out of my body
Embraced by a beautiful light
I found myself in a profound stillness
Beyond God's infinity
Now I could perceive my "forever"
White light
Tunnel
Slowmotion
Ascension
I never wanted anything
As much as to go into that light
I never wanted anything
As much as to continue the ride
I've never felt such a vibration
A peaceful feeling came over me
I was in the eye of the creation
Close to light, my N.D.E.
The lyrics of [:SITD:]'s song "Ascension" are referring to a near-death experience (N.D.E.). The singer describes how they felt like everything around them was bright and they were experiencing scenes of their life passing through their mind. They then felt like they were floating out of their body and were embraced by a beautiful light. The singer then found themselves in a state of profound stillness, beyond what they believe God's infinity to be. This allowed them to see their "forever" and a new reality was revealed to them. The song describes this experience as a journey towards the light, with a feeling of peacefulness and a sense of great vibration. The chorus repeats that the singer has never wanted anything more than to go into that light and continue the ride.
Overall, the lyrics of the song convey the sense of awe and wonder that often accompanies N.D.E.s as well as the sense of peacefulness that those who experience them often report. The singer is in a state of profound stillness and seems to be witnessing the creation of something new, something different from what they previously believed to be true about the world.
