Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was blind, saw no treason
I was devastated, couldn't take no more
Man infuriated, raging thunderstorm
Where's it gone, the golden future
Where's it now, the dream come true
All we are, eternal sinners
And I hear the cry of an eagle
Out in the heavens he will not obey
I hear the cry of an eagle
Riding on wings of tomorrow
that take me away
I was scared, for a lifetime
I've been had, nuclear crime
Is this never ending, grand catastrophe
Here I am ascending, from this misery
Where's it gone, your golden future
Where's it now, your dream come true
All I see, immortal sinners
Rising fear, I'm leaving you
And I hear the cry of an eagle
Out in the heavens he will not obey
I'm riding the sky like an eagle
Follow the sunrise on wings that will take me away
Faster, faster to the light, in this world too many fights
Devastation, termination, leave the world for recreation
Out in my dreamworld there's a better place to be
Cause all this world is full of lies
Breaking chains that hold me down I fly up to the sun
Another place, another life
I'm riding the sky like an eagle
Out in the heavens I will not obey
I'm riding the sky like an eagle
Follow the sunrise on wings that will take me away
Away...
The lyrics to Gamma Ray's song "Eagle" seem to be expressing a feeling of losing hope and being deceived in life. The singer reflects on how they were lost and blind, but then emerged from devastation and anger. They ask where their golden future and dreams have gone, and the answer they come to is that all people are eternal sinners hiding in their darkened room. However, the singer hears the cry of an eagle that refuses to obey in the heavens, and they are pulled away on the wings of tomorrow to a better, brighter future.
The eagle seems to represent hope and freedom in this song. The singer is scared and feels like they have been victims of a nuclear crime, but the eagle's call gives them the courage to ascend from their misery. They encourage others to leave behind the fear and rise up against the immortal sinners. The chorus repeats the message that the eagle's cry is leading them away on wings and the sunrise to a new, better place.
Overall, "Eagle" seems to be a song about finding hope and escaping from a world that is full of lies and deception. It encourages listeners to break free from the chains that hold them down and follow their dreams to a brighter future, riding on the wings of an eagle.

I was lost, had no reason
I was feeling aimless and without purpose
I was blind, saw no treason
I didn't see any wrongdoing that was happening around me
I was devastated, couldn't take no more
I was overwhelmed and couldn't handle anymore of the situation
Man infuriated, raging thunderstorm
I was extremely angry and felt like a storm was brewing within me
Where's it gone, the golden future
I wonder where the bright and hopeful future has disappeared to
Where's it now, the dream come true
I can't find the reality of my dreams in the world
All we are, eternal sinners
We are all flawed, imperfect beings
Hiding in their darkened room
Some people avoid reality and hide from the world
And I hear the cry of an eagle
I can hear the piercing call of freedom and strength
Out in the heavens he will not obey
The eagle does not follow the crowd or common thought, but instead makes its own path
I hear the cry of an eagle
I fully embrace the eagle's call to action and change
Riding on wings of tomorrow
that take me away
I'm flying with eagles, ahead to a brighter future
I was scared, for a lifetime
I was afraid for a long time
I've been had, nuclear crime
I was a victim of deceit and malice
Is this never ending, grand catastrophe
Is this terrible situation ever going to let up or end?
Here I am ascending, from this misery
I am rising above the pain and struggle to find hope
Where's it gone, your golden future
Where did your bright and hopeful future disappear to?
Where's it now, your dream come true
Where can you find the reality of your dreams?
All I see, immortal sinners
I observe that everyone is flawed and fallible
Rising fear, I'm leaving you
I'm shedding my fear and moving on
I'm riding the sky like an eagle
I am soaring through the sky with freedom and power
Follow the sunrise on wings that will take me away
I'm following my dreams to a place of light and beauty
Faster, faster to the light, in this world too many fights
I'm moving more quickly towards hope and peace because there is too much conflict in the world
Devastation, termination, leave the world for recreation
The destruction and oppression of the world only leaves room for rebuilding and growth
Out in my dreamworld there's a better place to be
I have a vision for a better world in my mind
Cause all this world is full of lies
There is too much dishonesty and deceit in reality
Breaking chains that hold me down I fly up to the sun
I am breaking free from the constraints that limit me and rising to new heights
Another place, another life
I will find new opportunities and a new way of living
Away...
I'm moving towards my dreams and leaving my old life behind
