Helloween Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I have to leave
So will you follow me?
That's how it's meant to be
I reigned as God
I'm monumental
Soon I will arise
With you by my side
He who will gaze our lights
Will kill his mind, his vision blind
Tonight we are stars
Stars that shine on bright
Tonight we are stars
Stars immortal light
Tonight we are stars
All treasures all goods
We bury where we lay down to die
And pay for paradise
Await the highest thorn of all
And who will gaze our lights
Will kill his mind, is going blind
Tonight we are stars
Stars that shine on bright
Tonght we are stars
Stars inside the nights of ache
Love and hate
Hope and shade
Take you away
I will take you away
I'm gonna take you away
I'm gonna take you away
Tonight we are stars
Stars that shine on bright
Tonight we are stars
Stars immortal light of ache
Light of hate
Hope and shade
Part of the fate
Tonight we are stars
The lyrics to "Immortal" by Helloween display the idea of two lives, one fate. The first verse reveals a powerful, godlike figure who has reigned over all and soon plans to rise again, with the listener by their side. The following lines emphasize their immortal status as they state that those who gaze upon their lights will kill their own mind and become blind. The chorus then declares that the singer and the listener are stars, shining bright and immortal.
The second verse speaks of burying all treasures and goods where they lay to rest and paying for paradise. They await the highest thorn of all, possibly referring to a challenging obstacle or the end of their reign as an immortal being. The repetition of the lines about those who gaze upon their lights becoming blind emphasizes the power and greatness of the singer as well as the consequences of those who cannot handle it. The final lines of the song speak of taking the listener away with them, declaring that they are part of the same fate.
Overall, the lyrics of "Immortal" convey a sense of power and immortality, not just in the physical sense but also in the mind and spirit. The idea of two lives and one fate is emphasized as the singer seeks to bring the listener along with them in their eternal journey. The imagery of bright stars and a powerful godlike figure further solidify the theme of immortality and greatness.

True. Seems like all it takes is a song written for his sort of voice.
It's unbelievable how good he is once he's playing his own game.
It's very easy to get a wrong idea of his singing when he's emulating very different kind of singers.

My favorite album. Almost all songs of "Dark Ride" are perfect (maybe I don't really admire Escalation 666)
