When Falls the Winter
Glory Opera Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just shadows
Of what you should really find,
Never paradise,
The path of nails torn inside.
Limits could be reached out,
If broken down, but scared,
To see the world
With different eyes.
[Pre Chorus]
Light won't shine on you
'till the winter...
All the wisdom can't bring me
The visions of paradise,
That lives inside me now
No matter if you crawl
And feel not proud, this is the price,
The conquest sight
May not be just the way
You've thought.
Go on and on and feel
Like you have never existed,
It's coming the time
To leave your wishes burn alive.
[Chorus]
Fall from sky in no one's land,
Can't raise the eyes and face
No strenght enought to hold.
This dream drowned in faith,
Uncovering while waits,
Where secrets lie untold.
[Solos: Stanley / Jean]
If I still dive without fear,
From the deep sky without tears.
[Repeat Chorus]
The lyrics to Glory Opera's song "When Falls the Winter" reflect a sense of disillusionment and recognition of the passing of time. The opening lines, "life passes by so fast, just shadows of what you should really find" indicate a feeling of dissatisfaction with the pace of life and the inability to discover one's true purpose or happiness. The reference to "the path of nails torn inside" suggests that this lack of fulfillment has caused emotional pain.
The next verse acknowledges the potential for growth and change, but a fear of taking risks has hindered progress. "Limits could be reached out, if broken down, but scared, you've lost the chance to see the world with different eyes." This fear has resulted in missed opportunities and a sense of being stuck.
The pre-chorus highlights the idea that sometimes darkness, or "winter," is necessary before light or clarity can be found. "Light won't shine on you 'till the winter...All the wisdom can't bring me the visions of paradise, that lives inside me now." The chorus expands on this theme by speaking to the difficulty of confronting difficult truths and facing disappointment. "Fall from sky in no one's land, can't raise the eyes and face. No strength enough to hold. This dream drowned in faith, uncovering while waits, where secrets lie untold."
Overall, the song suggests a struggle to find meaning and purpose in life, accompanied by a recognition that growth and change are necessary but difficult. The images of winter and drowning add to the sense of melancholy and difficulty in finding hope.
