Banished From Eternity
Galloglass Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Into the realm of my inquiry
Good and evil are by my side
The two beings are awaiting me
They will judge your life
They will see your sins
Here on the other side
It's my time for a decision
Will I belong to heaven or hell
We are sitting in a theatre
A movie plays, it shows my way
A gloomy voice sounds from afar
"Welcome to your judgment day"
It's my time for a decision
Will I belong to heaven or hell
Weighing out what I have done
My deeds are balanced out perfectly
So I've to choose my way alone
To find my place for eternity
It's my time for a decision
I make my choice between heaven or hell
Congratulations you've won the jackpot
You can choose between
Gate one
A low prize apartment with a high-end radiator system
Or gate two
A cool attic flat with a fantastic view
Flattering words from the evil guide
The good appealing to my belief
Each "one" is trying to pull me on his side
Making offerings for me to seize
It's my time for a decision
I make my choice between heaven or hell
Join the dark side
The only place to be
You surely won't regret
Prophets you will receive
Become a lord of death
Let hate flow in your veins
Tormentor of the lost souls
Master of eternal pain
Now let me tell you the truth
I'm not interested in both
It's maybe fun to exist as a ghost
So I will stay here on earth
The lyrics to Galloglass's "Banished From Eternity" tell the story of the singer's journey toward judgment day where they will be asked to make a choice between heaven and hell. The singer describes drifting away into the guiding light and coming face to face with good and evil, who will judge their life and weigh their deeds. The singer is offered two choices and each side tries to persuade them to choose their path. The good offers flattery and appeals to their beliefs, while the evil promises power and stature as a lord of death and tormentor of lost souls. However, the singer ultimately decides to stay on earth as a ghost and reject both heaven and hell altogether.

Join the dark side
Choosing bad choices
The only place to be
A scarcity tactic to sway the decision
You surely won't regret
A sales pitch to influence decision-making
Prophets you will receive
An appeal to narcissism
Become a lord of death
A false sense of empowerment
Let hate flow in your veins
Encouraged negative emotions
Tormentor of the lost souls
Roles and responsibilities would be reversible
Master of eternal pain
A terrifying false empowerment
Now let me tell you the truth
A revelation
I'm not interested in both
A decision to stay on earth
It's maybe fun to exist as a ghost
Positive perspective on non-existence
So I will stay here on earth
Decision made to stay on earth

Great song!! What pisses me off about this band is the fact that you can't find anything from them. No CD's, no merchandise, nothing.
