Eternity X Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A lesson in lost and shattered men
Welcome to the story of their solemn fears
Spare all the innocence you can
Here in this world of lost misery
A bit of faith isn't that what you said
Sometimes they face endless futility
All of them have lived on the edge
Here we stand...It's a long way down
Lives in hand...Can you see the end
Ours to take...Find a reason
Ours to waste...Before you make the call
All Alone...It's a long way home
Free to go...Are you really free?
Revenge is sweet...Sickeningly so
Best served cold...What are you thinking
Are you saying that all you had means nothing?
If that's your sight now then you will be here forever...
The sting of hatred is all too real to you
A face in time is all you know
A world shut out unable to rescue you
A final plea begging for your soul
As you leave to carry out your final masquerade
It becomes so clear this darkness in your head
A pawn in the game of humanity
Another lost soul crying from the edge
Where is home?...It's a long way down
Where is me?...On the edge of life
Reflections of...I'll take the time
Broken dreams...To help you understand
Lost in time...It's a long way home
No place here...It's the life you lead
May be hope...I'll take the time
I don't care...Forgive yourself
If you're convinced that all in life means nothing
Then I can't help you, you have reached the edge...
The lyrics of Eternity X's song The Edge paint a picture of a place far from here, a world of lost misery, where the characters of the story face endless futility and live on the edge. The song deals with themes of lost innocence, revenge, and the realization that life may ultimately mean nothing. The lyrics describe the characters' final masquerade before they reach the edge, a pawn in the game of humanity, and another lost soul crying from the edge.
The chorus of the song drives home the feeling of being on the edge, whether it's a long way down or a long way home. The lyrics describe the sense of freedom of being lost in time and the feeling of being a face in time with broken dreams. There is a sense of reflection throughout the lyrics, with the characters taking the time to understand themselves and each other, to forgive themselves and each other, and to find hope in the darkness.
Overall, the lyrics of The Edge are powerful and thought-provoking, describing the struggles of the characters as they face the ultimate realization that they have reached the edge and must find a way to deal with the truth.
