Endanger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They've never seen the eyes of death before
We moveand breathewe live and loveeternally
Ref.:
Inside I feel my heartbeat dying
It's time to face the end (tonight my kingdom comes)
Erase me, erase me
Wise men say "all's fair in love and war"
See-Part:
They say "all's fair in love and war"
They've never looked into these eyes before
We moveand breathewe live and loveeternally
The lyrics of Endanger's song "Inside" articulate a feeling of impending doom and acceptance of the end. The opening lines "Wise men say 'all's fair in love and war'/ They've never seen the eyes of death before" suggest that the singer has faced death and acknowledges that in the face of death, notions of fairness or justice are irrelevant. The repetition of the phrase "we move and breathe, we live and love eternally" in the chorus, coupled with the imagery of a dying heartbeat, suggest a recognition of the fragility of life.
The lyrics of the song are open to interpretation, but one possible reading is that the singer is acknowledging the ultimate reality of mortality and is grappling with the inevitability of the end. The lines "Erase me, erase me" in the chorus may suggest a willingness to let go of attachments and ego, and to embrace the void. The repeated refrain "wise men say 'all's fair in love and war'/ they've never looked into these eyes before" serves to underscore the singer's experience and perhaps to suggest that in the face of death, all notions of fairness or moral absolutes become meaningless.
