End Of Time
Danzig/Glenn Danzig Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The wait is gone
The streets are filled
With a hollow song
Got a new death
It lurks outside
Follows me home
Waiting for me
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
A hum in the ear
Numbness comes
Feeling like you're almost home
The open arms
Tempting embrace
It's always been
Waiting
Waiting at the end of time for you
And you'll be too
Yea
The suffering's here
The wait is gone
The streets are filled
With a hollow song
Empty world
Of listless night
I pray to thee
I suffer blind
Waiting at the end of time for you
And you'll be too
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Right
Waiting at the end of time for you
And you'll be too
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
The lyrics of Danzig's "End of Time" paint a bleak picture of a post-apocalyptic world where suffering permeates everything. The opening lines proclaim that the suffering has arrived, and gone is the hopeful anticipation of better times to come. Instead, the world is filled with a hollow song, suggesting that there is no hope or joy left in it. The mention of a new death lurking outside implies that there is some malevolent force responsible for this suffering that is waiting to claim its next victim.
The second verse speaks to the idea of losing one's soul, feeling doomed and cold. The hum in the ear and numbness suggest a sense of detachment and resignation to one's fate. The temptation of the embrace of death is always present, and seemingly always waiting. The chorus reinforces the theme that the end of time is coming for everyone, and that everyone will be lost and doomed in the end. It's a bleak view of the world and the afterlife, with no hope for redemption.
Overall, the lyrics of "End of Time" paint a grim picture of a world that has lost its way. The song is a reflection of the darker parts of human existence, and it both acknowledges and embraces the inevitability of death and suffering.

The suffering's here
The pain is currently present
The wait is gone
The anticipation has ended
The streets are filled
Everywhere is crowded
With a hollow song
A melody with no meaning
Got a new death
A new way of dying
It lurks outside
It hides and waits outside
Follows me home
It chases me back to my house
Waiting for me
Planning to attack when I least expect it
Lost your soul
Your spirit is gone
Doomed and cold
Your fate is sealed and hopeless
Yea
Yes, it's true
A hum in the ear
A faint noise in one's hearing
Numbness comes
Feeling insensible
Feeling like you're almost home
Almost reaching a point of no return
The open arms
A welcoming gesture
Tempting embrace
A seductive invitation
It's always been
It existed forever
Waiting
Planning and expecting
Waiting at the end of time for you
Prepared and waiting for your demise
And you'll be too
You'll experience the same fate
Empty world
A world with nothing left
Of listless night
Endless and futile darkness
I pray to thee
I plead to a higher power
I suffer blind
I'm in agony with no sight of a solution
Right
Indeed
Lost your soul
Your spirit is gone
Doomed and cold
Your fate is sealed and hopeless
Yea
Yes, it's true
Lost your soul
Your spirit is gone
Doomed and cold
Your fate is sealed and hopeless
Yea
Yes, it's true
Lost your soul
Your spirit is gone
Doomed and cold
Your fate is sealed and hopeless
Yea
Yes, it's true
Lost your soul
Your spirit is gone
Doomed and cold
Your fate is sealed and hopeless
Yea
Yes, it's true
