Millenium
Distemper Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was the happiest man in world,
I live in time when on earth,
There is a junction of millennium.
But years ran through very speedy,
And soon will come the magic moment,
And every person on the planet,
Live in the fear of this moment.
We lived in waiting,
We lived in dreams,
We lived in wanting
To swear by our dream.
We lived in waiting,
We lived in dreams,
We lived in wanting
To check up our dream.
And suddenly the jump was made,
But on the planet nothing changed,
I understand that half my life,
I lived in dream, in vain hope.
The same fools I see around,
And many people was deceived,
And only splendid winter dream
Was break to pieces by this moment.
We lived in waiting,
We lived in dreams,
We lived in wanting
To swear by our dream.
We lived in waiting,
We lived in dreams,
We lived in wanting
To check up our dream.
The song "Millenium" by Distemper talks about an individual's perception regarding the arrival of a new millennium. The lyrics start off with the singer talking about his happy childhood and how he was the happiest man in the world, but as time went by, he realized how rapidly it was progressing. The lyrics then talk about the anticipation of the arrival of the new millennium and the fear that it brings with it. People all around the world were waiting for the new millennium to arrive, but nobody knew for sure what the future held.
As the lyrics progress, the singer talks about the disappointment he feels when the new millennium arrives and nothing changes. He comes to the realization that he had been living his life based on a dream and a false hope. He sees the same fools around him, and many people were left unfulfilled and deceived. The only thing that was shattered by the new millennium was his winter dream that had been holding him hostage for half his life.
