The End Of The World
Godkiller Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feel the wind
Of devastation
Of desolation
Blows like the breath of a thousand vultures
Wheeling above your head
In Nomine Patris Et Filii Et Spiritus Sancti
You know it's coming
Forsake your life
What's the use of waiting for a salvation?
Now it's too late
Did I do everything I wanted to do?
Did I forget something I could regret?
I know the end is near
I feel cold like ice
It's as if I was already dead
I know our time has come
Open the gate
Hear toll the knell
Kneel down
Pray the lords
Did you ever think about how will be
The end of the world?
It smells like death
It smells like past
Like two thousand years
Like millions of dead men
It smells like
The end of the world
The song "The End of the World" by Godkiller is a haunting piece that is focused on the impending doom that feels like it is coming for everyone. The lyrics talk about the destruction and devastation that is already here, and is coming at a pace that cannot be stopped. The lyrics describe a sense of foreboding and acceptance that are common themes in apocalyptic scenarios. The lyrics also express a sense of bewilderment and a desire to know more about the end of the world.
The first verse talks about the feeling of imminent destruction that is already here. The lyrics describe the sounds of destruction, the wind of devastation blowing like the breath of a thousand vultures, and the hopeless feeling that comes with knowing that nothing can save you now. The verse ends with the phrase "Forsake your life," which implies a sense of acceptance and resignation that comes with facing the end of the world.
The second verse goes deeper into the psychological effects of facing an apocalypse. The singer asks if they have done everything they wanted to do before the end came, and if they have forgotten something that they might regret. This verse explores the theme of regret and the fear of not having lived life to the fullest. The chorus repeats the phrase "The end of the world," which is an affirmation that this is really happening.
