Visions
Arrow Haze Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Innocence is no virtue now
It's another word for defeat
So give me all you've got
What's left of your apathy
Beauty's being ripped apart
Oh it frightens me
This world is meant to kill
To cast us all to hell
Judging by all your kind deeds
You'd fit in so well
Aaaaah I'am ready now
And again this is out of reach
Aaaaah I'am ready now
I'am sorry but I have to leave
Aaaaah I'am ready now
Does the end justify the means?
Who said this day would end
In anguish and disbelief
On these walls of screaming faces
I know where I belong
This world is meant to kill
To cast us all to hell
Judging by all your kind deeds
You'd fit in so well
Aaaaah I'am ready now
And again this is out of reach
Aaaaah I'am ready now
Light a candle for us everyday
That someday our time might come
Everything is so unreal
Since this fairytale has begun
Aaaaah I'am ready now
And again this is out of reach
Aaaaah I'am ready now
I'am sorry but I have to leave
Aaaaah I'am ready now
Does the end justify the means?
The lyrics of Arrow Haze's "Visions" paint a picture of a bleak and oppressive world. The city in which the singer finds themselves is full of darkness and dead roses, a metaphor for a society that has lost its vitality and hope. Innocence is no longer seen as a virtue, as it has become synonymous with defeatism. The apathy of others is a source of frustration for the singer, who fears the destruction of beauty in such a cruel world. Despite this, the chorus asserts that the singer is ready to face whatever may come, even if it means leaving behind this world altogether.
The second stanza takes on a more defiant tone. The world is portrayed as being naturally destructive, with no regard for human life. The singer suggests that those who perform kind deeds are only helping to perpetuate the cycle of destruction. The repetition of the chorus suggests that the singer is preparing for a final confrontation, one that might lead them to a different plane of existence.
The final stanza introduces a prayer for hope. The singer wishes for the light of a candle to guide them to a better future, one where reality is not distorted by false tales. The final repetition of the chorus ties the song together, conveying a sense of finality and acceptance. The end may justify the means of leaving this world, in search of something better.
