The Visitor
Arena Lyrics

Did it really make a difference?
Questioning if the actions taken have led to a significant change.

Was there strength enough to set me free?
Reflecting on whether or not the power to liberate oneself existed.

Am I even sure I'm living now?
Doubting the reality and existence of the present.

Or is this some kind of dream?
Wondering if what is being experienced is an illusion or hallucination.

Is it really that important?
Considering the level of significance in relation to the situation at hand.

Did I really need to find this way?
Questioning the necessity of the chosen path.

Have I never looked inside before?
Pondering if introspection and self-reflection have ever been attempted.

Have I always been afraid?
Reflecting on a consistent emotion of fear.

The vampire waits on the corner of the street
Describing the presence of a frightening figure.

Past the clown and the words of the preacher
Illustrating a scene with juxtaposing characters and their contrasting messages.

Try to run, but you'll never beat the thief
Implying that the likelihood of being deceived or taken advantage of is high.

Are these the faces of The Visitor?
Questioning if these individuals are representatives of a visitor or intruder.

It was there in a desperate breath
Describing the origin of a feeling or thought as a last resort.

It was born from a moment of death
Depicting the genesis of something in a moment of extreme loss or death.

It was held in the weakest of faith
Explaining how something was conceived or maintained by a fragile belief.

But it seemed to last forever
Expressing the seemingly never-ending nature of an experience or feeling.

It was over in a moment of sight
Detailing how something ended in a fleeting moment of sighting.

It was gone in a flash of a light
Depicting how something disappeared suddenly like a quick flash of light.

It was lost in the heart of the night
Describing something that was vanished or disappeared during the night.

But it seemed to last forever
Reiterating the seemingly ceaseless nature of an experience or feeling.

You're never alone
Assuring that one is never truly alone even when it feels so.

Take it from me
Encouraging the listener to take the advice being offered.

Am I really what I seem to be?
Questioning the authenticity of one's identity.

Did I ever truly breathe again?
Reflecting on whether or not one has been able to truly live and enjoy life again.

Or is this some kind of dream?
Wondering if what is being experienced is an illusion or hallucination.
