Eternity
Dawnlight Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never retreat
The forever undefeated
Courage and honor
Lived in their hearts
Always looking for a fight
And so for the feast
Brothers in arms and in freedom
They only fight
For the glory to die,
With a sword in their hands
They wanted to live
In freedom without fear
They only want to fly
Honour and their faith
Will keep them on their way
In the end they'll reach the sky
Flying high
One day in battle
Against a black beast
Discovered the way to eternity
Giving their souls
To the demons which died
Long time ago for their sins
They faced their fears
And accepted their death
The birth of the "Terror Twins" legend
Never look back
Feel the blood in your heart
Brother I'll die by your side
They wanted to live
In freedom without fear
They only want to fly
Honour and their faith
Will keep them on their way
In the end they'll reach the sky
Flying high
They wanted to live
In freedom without fear
They only want to fly
Honour and their faith
Will keep them on their way
In the end they'll reach the sky
Flying high
They wanted to live...
The lyrics of "Eternity" by Dawnlight celebrate the values of courage, honor, and the yearning for freedom, embodied by a group of warriors who refuse to surrender or retreat. First and foremost, they seek glory in battle and are always ready for a fight. They are brothers-in-arms who share a bond of camaraderie and loyalty that is rooted in their shared love of freedom. For them, dying on the battlefield with a sword in their hands is the ultimate achievement and a guarantee of eternal glory.
However, the narrative of the song takes a dark turn when the warriors face a black beast in one of their battles. The beast leads them to discover a way to eternal life - by giving their souls to demons who died long ago for their sins. The warriors do not flinch from this challenge and accept their death, becoming the legendary "Terror Twins." The lyrics suggest that the twin warriors had no regrets about their transformation and were unified in their desire to live free from fear.
Overall, the song captures the essence of heroic idealism, bravery in the face of death, and the yearning for immortality that is often associated with epic stories of war and battle.

It's bittersweet to listen to this. I just found this, It's so good, but when checking your Facebook page, I was sad to see that the band had split. I understand the reason why, and I wish you all the best. But, deep down, I hope one day you guys can find it in your hearts to start up again. And when you do, I'll be there. The world always needs more Power Metal.
