Walking
Divine Weep Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The fallacy of this life
Is that we're craving forgiveness
Open up now to face what's real
What do YOU crave as there's no-one to forgive?
You woke up in the morning
And no signs of changes you could tell
Somehow you knew that you'd woken up in hell
Cities void of people
Where they'd gone?
There's no-one left to say
There's no trace, nor bodies
Only trees wave in gentle sway
Now you're walking...
Walking through debris of nations
Walking in the torment of today
Sound of distant thunder
Resonates in walls of empty maze
Future's torn asunder
As the mankind's leaning over its grave
As you roam the wasteland
You begin to question everything
What's the purpose
Of the struggle to stay here
Still you're walking...
Walking through debris of days gone
Walking in the torment of today
Can't death take me now?
I lie, waiting for her to come and
Take me alive
No hope
Lost inside
Alone
I never thought I would die on my own
So I can't give up today
There must be a second chance for this world
This life cannot end this way
I'll keep on walking onwards
For answers I shall seek
The lyrics of Divine Weep's song "Walking" depict a dystopian and post-apocalyptic world where the singer feels displaced and disconnected from reality. The opening lines convey a sense of longing for forgiveness but also emphasize the absence of someone to forgive. This suggests a feeling of emptiness and a yearning for meaning in a world that seems devoid of hope.
The second paragraph paints a vivid picture of the desolation and destruction surrounding the singer. They wake up to a world that has drastically changed overnight, where cities are empty and devoid of human presence. The absence of people and any clues as to their whereabouts leaves the singer bewildered and trapped in a nightmarish existence. The mention of trees peacefully swaying in the wind amidst this chaos creates a stark contrast, highlighting the loneliness and isolation the singer feels.
As the song progresses, the sound of distant thunder symbolizes the impending danger and impending doom that hangs over this bleak landscape. The metaphorical reference to the "walls of empty maze" resonates with the idea of a fragmented world, where the future is torn apart and mankind hovers on the brink of destruction. The singer questions the purpose of their existence in this harsh reality, reflecting a deep existential crisis and a search for meaning amidst the chaos.
Despite the despair and the overwhelming desire for death to end the suffering, the singer finds strength in persisting and continuing their journey. They reject the notion of giving up and choose to keep walking, wandering through the remnants of a past world and the torment of the present. This demonstrates a resilient spirit, a refusal to succumb to hopelessness, and a determination to find answers.
The final lines of the song convey a sense of hope and a belief in the possibility of redemption. The singer affirms their resolve to keep moving forward, driven by the need to find answers and a second chance for the world. The lyrics express a refusal to accept that life should end in this desolation, emphasizing the inherent worth and potential for change in the world and the importance of striving for a better future.

But your face contorted
Your expression twisted or distorted
Somehow you knew that you'd woken up in hell

At this moment, you are journeying on foot
Walking through debris of nations
Moving amidst the remnants and ruins of countries
Walking in the torment of today
Progressing while enduring the agony or anguish of the present
Sound of distant thunder
The noise of thunder coming from a far off place
Resonates in walls of empty maze
Echoes within the walls of a labyrinth devoid of life
Future's torn asunder
The future has been brutally ripped apart
As the mankind's leaning over its grave
As humanity is leaning towards its own destruction
As you roam the wasteland
While you explore the barren and desolate land
You begin to question everything
You start to doubt and inquire about every aspect
What's the purpose
What is the reason or meaning
Of the struggle to stay here
Of the hardship and effort to remain in this place
Still you're walking...
Nevertheless, you continue to move forward
Walking through debris of days gone
Progressing through the remains of past times
Walking in the torment of today
Advancing while enduring the suffering of the current day
Can't death take me now?
Is it not possible for death to claim me at this moment?
I lie, waiting for her to come and
I lie down, anticipating her arrival to
Take me alive
Take me while I am still breathing
No hope
There is no optimism or expectation
Lost inside
Feeling disoriented or confused internally
Alone
Being without anyone else
I never thought I would die on my own
I never anticipated dying without companionship
So I can't give up today
Therefore, I cannot relinquish or surrender today
There must be a second chance for this world
This world deserves or needs another opportunity
This life cannot end this way
This existence cannot come to a close in this manner
I'll keep on walking onwards
I will persist in moving forward
For answers I shall seek
In search of solutions, I will endeavor
