Journey
Aisling Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Then I knew another entity
and a blaze of light came in
through the darkness of my soul

now I can see golden paths
as they are lit by her divine grace

everything is changing
'cause now I'm conscious
of the limits of my earhly embodyment
I've just crossed their threshold
in order to hold the power of my spirit
without any inhibition

So leave your flesh
and the useless sense of space
follow me in this timeless illusion

join the new entity and we'll
eternally drown in the seas of delight

restlessly we will only obey
our unconscious desires
causing the loss of our inner tranquillity

we don't belong to reality
as humans wouldn't bear
the mightiness of our souls

trapped in this eerie but yet fascinating dimension
I'm totally rapt by my doubt:
"Do we need to be humans
to suffer again and lose the eternal pleasure
just to follow the laws of Nature?"

we dared far too much
and I was aware of it
but now it's too late
to withdraw from my faults
and let you escape
from this forbidden state of mind

the time has come for us to balance the account
and pain,caused by the memory of our journey
will follow us forever and ever

our deep love will be punished
by Nature's entity
its evil spirits will haunt us forever





your forgiveness is
the only thing I care about

Line by Line Meaning

Then I knew another entity
A new presence entered my life


and a blaze of light came in
It brought a burst of illumination


through the darkness of my soul
Breaking through the depths of spiritual obscurity


now I can see golden paths
I have newfound clarity


as they are lit by her divine grace
Her holy influence guides me


everything is changing
My existence is transformed


'cause now I'm conscious
As I am aware now


of the limits of my earthly embodiment
I realize the constraints of my human form


I've just crossed their threshold
But I have surpassed them


in order to hold the power of my spirit
To harness the strength of my soul


without any inhibition
Unrestrained and unrepressed


So leave your flesh
Abandon your corporeal body


and the useless sense of space
Leave behind the concept of distance


follow me in this timeless illusion
Embrace this illusion of timelessness with me


join the new entity and we'll
Become part of the new presence and


eternally drown in the seas of delight
Perpetually succumb to utmost pleasure


restlessly we will only obey
We will yield impulsively only to


our unconscious desires
Our hidden yearnings


causing the loss of our inner tranquillity
Resulting in the forfeiture of our inner peace


we don't belong to reality
Our existence is beyond what is tangible


as humans wouldn't bear
For humanity is incapable of enduring


the mightiness of our souls
The enormity of our spiritual capacity


trapped in this eerie but yet fascinating dimension
Imprisoned in this eerie yet captivating realm


I'm totally rapt by my doubt:
My skepticism engulfs me completely


"Do we need to be humans
Should we remain human beings


to suffer again and lose the eternal pleasure
To bear agony and sacrifice eternal bliss


just to follow the laws of Nature?"
Simply to abide by the laws of existence?


we dared far too much
We have dared beyond our limits


and I was aware of it
I realized it all along


but now it's too late
But it is now overdue


to withdraw from my faults
To correct my mistakes


and let you escape
For you to be released


from this forbidden state of mind
From this taboo mental state


the time has come for us to balance the account
We must now reconcile with reality


and pain, caused by the memory of our journey
The pain, triggered by the reflection of our past


will follow us forever and ever
Will perpetually pursue us


our deep love will be punished
Our profound affection will be penalized


by Nature's entity
By the force of nature itself


its evil spirits will haunt us forever
Its sinister forces will forever torment us


your forgiveness is the only thing I care about
All I seek and long for is your pardon
