Say Goodbye to the Sun
Bloody Hammers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tears right through you and makes you numb
Choose a victim but very wisely
Take a note on what you've become
When the wind is freezing but doesn't phase you
Frost your veins like it did before
When the mirror doesn't recognize you
How's it feel to know you're going to live forever
How's it feel to know you won't grow one day older
When the lost ones find you and try to follow
Ask to find all your truths untold
Turn away as they know the evil
They're all broken and their souls are sold
How's it feel to know you're going to live forever
How's it feel to know you won't grow one day older
Please understand and say goodbye to the sun
Please understand and say goodbye to the sun
Please understand and say goodbye to the sun
Please understand and say goodbye to the sun
The lyrics of Say Goodbye to the Sun by Bloody Hammers describe a state of pain and numbness that the singer has experienced. The first verse talks about how the painful hunger returns abruptly and cuts through the singer like a knife, making them feel numb. They are choosing a victim consciously but with caution and at the same time, focus on what they have become. The second verse talks about how despite the freezing wind that used to chill their veins before, they remain unfazed. The mirror doesn't recognize them anymore, and they cannot walk through any door. These lines depict a sense of transmutation that the singer might have gone through. They are experiencing a sense of disconnect from the world and a feeling of being detached from their own self.
The chorus talks about how it feels to live forever and not age a day older. The singer might be talking about seeking immortality, but at the same time, they are wondering at what cost will they have to pay for it. The third verse talks about how the lost ones find the singer and try to follow them, but the singer turns them away. The lost ones are searching for the singer's truth that the singer may have hidden, but they all know that there is something evil behind it. The lost ones might not have found their redemption, and their souls are sold out to darkness.
Overall, the song speaks about the singer's desire to find a way out of the pain, but at the same time, they are unsure of what they might have to give up in exchange for their salvation. The song's melancholic and eerie mood adds a layer of complexity to the lyrics, painting a bleak picture of the singer's psyche.
