darkest dreams
His Name Is Alive Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Silent as the stolen heart
It beats so slowly as I part
The seas before me seem to be
In thinking of a deeper meaning

Life I ask her is for living
Falling faster than forgiving
Me as I believe to be
I hurry and need gravity

The darkest dreams
Are the ones that come true




And are given away
Caught between me and you

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics, the singer seems to be contemplating the meaning of life and the inevitability of certain events. The stolen heart in the first line represents a love that has been taken from the singer, and as they part from this love, they feel their heart beat slowly in sorrow. The seas before them represent the unknown future and the deeper meaning they are searching for. The singer recognizes that life is for living, but sometimes things happen so fast that forgiveness cannot keep up. They feel the urgency to move forward, but are held back by the pull of gravity.


The main idea of the song seems to be the realization that the darkest dreams, the ones that we fear the most, can come true and that we must find a way to deal with them. The singer feels caught between themselves and another person, possibly the one they have lost or are about to lose. The lyrics convey a deep sense of vulnerability and uncertainty, but also a sense of determination to face whatever may come.
