Until the End
Evig Natt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take me now and I promise forever
My obsession, my darkest fear
I have suffered enough
My dearest, my love
I can't stay here any longer
Waiting for you
My dearest, my love
Again and again I've pleaded
Begged for you to grant my wish
A lifelong dream of you until the end
Alone in life I face this path
I welcome every step towards the dark
A shadow I will no longer cast
Only a faded memory of the past
Come now my love
Finally I feel no pain, no life
Greet me like my dreams
I pray it will last
How I've waited for this moment
I don't ever want to leave
You mend the broken pieces of me
I open my arms to you my daughter
It's been a long time coming
This time we will make it last
This time I will embrace you heart
The last drops of your blood
It shall live in me forever
The song "Until The End" by Evig Natt speaks heavily of the singer's desire to unite with her daughter in death. The opening lines feature the singer requesting her daughter to "Take me now and I promise forever". Here, the singer has suffered enough in life and wishes to unite with her daughter in the afterlife. The tone of the song is haunting, but not in a scary way. It's more a feeling of profound sadness as the singer yearns for the end to her pain and desires her daughter to accompany her to death's door.
Through the lyrics, we can sense the desperation within the singer. She beseeches her daughter to come to her, so as to "mend the broken pieces of me". She has lost hope in life and opens her arms to embrace the end. The words "no pain, no life" signify that the singer has undergone immense suffering and wants to escape it. This song explores the depth of human emotions that come with the loss of hope and the longing to be with someone who has passed on.
