Apocalypse
Athena Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I see the hands of thunder
Crawling in the night,
Evil's dream around the creatures
Is waiting for its time.

Now the beast trusts your sorrow
Now it's time to die.
Silence comes, the final storm
Rages against the world.

Listen to my lasting dream
Every time I need it,
Angels cry for your crimes
Evil's calm deceives.

Rain is falling all around
To forgive my sins
There's no time to explain,
While my soul is burning inside.

Tears from my eyes when I remember
Ash on my hands when I forget.

Now I feel the flames around me
Entering my eyes
Now the beast trusts your sorrow
Now it's time to die.

Listen to my lasting dream
Every time I need it,
Angels cry for your crimes
Evil's calm deceives.

Rain is falling all around
To forgive my sins
There's no time to explain,
While my soul is burning inside.

Tears from my eyes when I remember
Ash on my hands when I forget.





Tears from my eyes when I remember
Ash on my hands when I forget.

Line by Line Meaning

When I see the hands of thunder
Whenever I witness a symbol of power and destruction


Crawling in the night,
Moving slowly and steadily in the darkness


Evil's dream around the creatures
The nightmares of malevolence surrounding all living beings


Is waiting for its time.
Is patiently biding its time, waiting for the right chance to strike


Now the beast trusts your sorrow
The monster of destruction sees your pain as a sign of its imminent victory


Now it's time to die.
Now it is the end, and the result is inevitable


Silence comes, the final storm
Peaceful quietness arrives before the ultimate tempest


Rages against the world.
Engulfing and consuming everything in its path


Listen to my lasting dream
Pay attention to my persistent aspiration


Every time I need it,
Each time I require its guidance


Angels cry for your crimes
Heavenly beings register your sins


Evil's calm deceives.
The serenity of wickedness is treacherous and misleading


Rain is falling all around
Water drops are descending persistently and extensively


To forgive my sins
As a way of erasing my iniquities


There's no time to explain,
No opportunity to clarify further


While my soul is burning inside.
As my essence is being devoured by grief and guilt


Tears from my eyes when I remember
Crying occurs when I reminisce


Ash on my hands when I forget.
When I obliviate, ashes cover my fingers


Now I feel the flames around me
Currently, fire is enveloping me


Entering my eyes
Penetrating my visual organs


Tears from my eyes when I remember
Crying occurs when I reminisce


Ash on my hands when I forget.
When I obliviate, ashes cover my fingers
