Eternity
Buke and Gase Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's raining rockstars
Neatly dropping in pairs
Like a big [?] day feast
And I don't know which way you can go
And I don't know which way you can go
And I don't know which way you can go
If you feel like this without me
I'm sorry if you admit that
You feel like this without me
I'm sorry I didn't see
If you feel like this without me
I'm sorry and face eternity
[?]
My dinner's [?]
When the girl gives time
All my heroes diving
[?]
Under this I'm dying
[?]
Under this I'm dying
The lyrics to "Eternity" by Buke and Gase paint a vivid picture of a chaotic environment where unexpected events are unfolding. The opening lines "Gotta call a cab, It's raining rockstars" suggest a sense of urgency and the arrival of famous personalities, possibly symbolizing the fleeting and glamorous nature of fame. The image of rockstars falling from the sky in pairs like a grand feast creates a surreal and lavish atmosphere, further emphasizing the unpredictability and excitement of the scene.
The repetition of "And I don't know which way you can go" conveys a feeling of uncertainty and confusion. It reflects the singer's inner turmoil and indecision, highlighting a sense of being lost and unsure of what path to follow. This repetition underscores the theme of existential questioning and the search for direction in the face of overwhelming circumstances.
The subsequent verses delve into themes of introspection and regret, with the singer expressing apologies for not recognizing or understanding the emotions of another person. The lines "If you feel like this without me, I'm sorry if you admit that" and "I'm sorry I didn't see" reveal a sense of remorse and a desire for reconciliation. The idea of facing eternity suggests a longing for closure and a willingness to confront the consequences of one's actions or inactions.
The final lines of the song introduce imagery of a surreal and disorienting experience, with references to a disrupted meal and heroes diving beneath the surface. These cryptic lines evoke a sense of turmoil and inner struggles, hinting at themes of isolation, disillusionment, and existential crises. The repetition of "Under this I'm dying" echoes the earlier sentiment of being lost and overwhelmed, reinforcing a sense of vulnerability and inner turmoil within the singer's journey towards understanding and acceptance.
