Millions
Abernethy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wishing to a mirror inside a room where people pray
To be cast away in shame
Been drinking from a reservoir that sinks through unmarked graves
To a flaming broken heart
Millions, millions
Have died for art
Does love it come but once
Or many times like everyday a new light touches us
With its ancient Grecian lust and burn
Is death as cold as ice
And does it hurt the way it hurts to hate yourself alone
Well, nobody knows
Millions, millions
have died for art
God has bouquet in his beard and a rose in his doom
Who's purple, who's violet
It's like parting dark from shadow
The song Millions by Abernethy delves into deep questions about life, death, and the meaning of existence. The song seems to explore themes of isolation and exclusion, with lines like "Is anybody gay, wishing to a mirror inside a room where people pray, to be cast away in shame". Abernethy is noting that many people who feel out of place in society, whether due to their sexuality, gender identity, or other factors, feel isolated and ostracized. The line "To be cast away in shame" suggests that these individuals feel like they have no place in society and are ashamed of who they are.
The song also touches on the idea of mortality and the afterlife. The lines "Does love come but once, Or many times like everyday a new light touches us, With its ancient Grecian lust and burn" hint at the fleeting nature of love and the question of whether it can be experienced multiple times or only once in a lifetime. Abernethy suggests that there is something ancient and eternal about love, likening it to the "Grecian lust and burn" of ancient times. The lines "Is death as cold as ice, And does it hurt the way it hurts to hate yourself alone, Well, nobody knows" raise important questions about death and the afterlife. The song is suggesting that death is mysterious and painful, but ultimately unknown.
Overall, Millions by Abernethy is a powerful and thought-provoking exploration of some of life's deepest questions. It touches on themes of isolation, exclusion, mortality, and the search for meaning in a world that can often feel confusing and chaotic.
