Hope
APOCALIPTICA FEAT MATTHIAS SAYER Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Personified.
At her feet, the world,
Hypnotized.
A million flashes,
A million smiles.
And on the catwalk,
An angry sign of darkness,
Our hope lies lost and torn.
All flame like love is fleeting,
When there's no hope anymore.
Pain and glory,
Hand in hand,
A sacrifice,
The highest price.
Like the poison in her heart,
Like a whisper she was gone,
Like when angels fall.
And in this side of darkness,
Our hope lies on the floor.
All love like flame is fleeting,
When there's no hope anymore.
Like the poison in her heart,
Like a whisper, she was gone,
Like an angel, angels fall.
The lyrics of Apocaliptica feat. Matze Sayer's song "Hope Vol. 2" capture the essence of hope as being a beautiful and mesmerizing force that captivates the world. The first verse describes her as a personification of beauty, with the world lying at her feet, hypnotized by her allure. The following lines further emphasize her magnetic appeal, with millions of flashes and smiles as she flaunts her style on the catwalk.
However, the second verse takes a darker turn, with hope being portrayed as a fragile and fleeting emotion. The line "an angry sign of darkness, our hope lies lost and torn" suggests a loss of faith in the power of hope, as it fades away in the face of adversity. The sacrifice required for hope to be realized is also highlighted, as pain and glory go hand in hand, with the highest price paid to achieve it.
The final lines of the song allude to a tragic ending, with hope being snuffed out like a flame, and the singer lamenting the loss of a loved one. The imagery of poison and the whispering of an angel convey the fragility of life, and the devastating effect it can have on hope.
Overall, the song's lyrics convey a bittersweet message that highlights the power and beauty of hope, while also acknowledging its fragility in the face of life's challenges.

Hope is beauty,
Personified,
At her feet, the world,
Hypnotized.
A million flashes,
A million smiles,
And on the catwalk,
She floats in style
But in this heart of darkness
Our hope lies lost and torn,
All fame like love is fleeting
When there's no hope anymore
Pain and glory,
Hand in hand,
A sacrifice,
The highest price,
Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper she was gone...
Like when angels fall.
And in this heart of darkness
All hope lies on the floor,
All love like fame is fleeting
When there's no hope anymore
Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper, she was gone
Like an angel,
And Angels fall
Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper, she was gone
Like an angel,
And Angels fall
Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper, she was gone
Like an angel,
And Angels fall

Like an angel,
And Angels fall
Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper, she was gone
Like an angel,
And Angels fall

@MarcoAntonio-tb4gx
You were not the only one. I used to listen to this while drinking untill getting knocked out for the alcohol, pretty similar I think
@claydud271
Literally doing this right now
@ninaj6051
@@MarcoAntonio-tb4gx I'm a latecomer to Apocalyptica. I thought they were great and knew a few songs more than a decade ago when I was a metalhead teen, but that was it. Wasn't a hardcore fan. Nowadays, as I've been stricken and disabled mentally and physically over the years, and now with limited energy and fatigue, etc, I still managed to go to their concert 10 days ago. I am hooked now. I discovered songs I play on loop, and keep on discovering new ones. I am amazed at how I love all their spectrum of the opus. I also felt the need to blow off steam a little from all the difficulty of my life and I drank cherry liquor that I had on hand while I watched the live-streamed concert they had a couple of years ago. I wish to go to many more concerts now and to meet them.

This and Path vol.2 - pirated from some shady site (it was impossible to get it otherwise, and I’ve bought the album right after it was released in us).
24 f****ing 7. Over and over. Good times
@owlberry5997
how comes this is so unpopular?... it's my favorite song
@michyourmom770
Its not that its unpopular, its that there was copy writes issues with the video since most of it used a french blockbuster (translated the movie is Dark Portal) so it was re-uploaded a lot.
@owlberry5997
Oh, I get it now... I still feel like it's my personal anthem
@michyourmom770
Ya, I love the song too, been humming it for years.
