Gidexen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't want to go to the other side
I don't wanna know what I'll leave behind
Come, show me the way
Ooh
Please, show me the way
I feel myself
Only when you're there
I need you there
In the afterlife
In the afterlife
I don’t want to go to the other side
I don’t wanna lose what I couldn’t find
Keep, close to me
Ooh
Keep close to me
I feel I’m near
Near to the end
I need you here

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Gidexen's "Afterlife" express the fear and uncertainty surrounding death and the afterlife. The repetition of "I don't want to go to the other side" and "I don't want to know what I'll leave behind" highlights the singer's reluctance to confront the unknown that awaits them after death. They plead for someone to show them the way, indicating their desire for guidance and reassurance in the face of this fear.


The chorus of the song, "I feel myself only when you're there / I need you there in the afterlife" expresses a dependency on another person, perhaps a loved one or spiritual guide, to provide comfort and meaning in the afterlife. The repetition of "In the afterlife" emphasizes the importance and weight of this concept, suggesting that the afterlife is not just a distant, abstract idea, but a deeply personal and significant reality for the singer.


Overall, "Afterlife" is a poignant reflection on the human condition and our relationship with mortality, encapsulating the fear, uncertainty, and longing that many people experience when faced with the prospect of what comes after death.
