Overall Meaning

The song "Entrance" by Etherial Winds is a poetic portrayal of the irrevocable consequences of one's choices. The lyrics indicate that a person has made critical mistakes that have resulted in their inability to move forward or make any progress. The opening line "Entrance is blocked" metaphorically represents a barricade or barrier obstructing entry. This barrier could refer to various things like an emotional block, a closed-door to an opportunity, or even a personal blockage one creates for oneself. It is emphasized that this block was not put in place by any external force but was the result of the person's poor choices. The lyrics state "The choice was yours... These mistakes closed all doors," placing the responsibility of the consequences of the choices made squarely on the person.

The second verse of the song further elaborates on the consequences of the person's actions. The lyrics state that due to the mistakes made, there is no way to access what was previously available. The phrase "There's no key to open" indicates that the person has exhausted all options and that there is no way back. The lyrics also suggest that the person is now ridiculed by their own voice referring to them as "you fool." The tone of the lyrics is one of regret, with the person recognizing the severity of their mistakes but now realizing that it is too late to reverse the damage.
