DEAD END
In Flames feat. Lisa Miskovsky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I think we're lost today
There's no morning after
No one's around to blame
I'm not afraid to bleed
But I will do it for you
We'll start among hypocrites
So say goodbye to the world
We are the dead that walk the earth
Scream your lungs out
Await for laughter
You don't have to wait forever
It's the next disaster
What decides when you've lost the war
When the first man falls
Or when they erase it all
We're too numb to feel
The downfall starts right here
Hold your breath and swim
Swallowed by life's tear
In times of make believe
No one really seems to care
Maybe I should care less
'Cause I will die too
So say goodbye to the world
We are the dead that walk the earth
Scream your lungs out
Await for laughter
You don't have to wait forever
It's the next disaster
What will it take for us to realize
The more we provoke
Winter will come twice
Save all your prayers
I think we're lost today
There's no morning after
No one's around to blame
Scream your lungs out
Await for laughter
You don't have to wait forever
It's the next disaster
Scream your lungs out
Await for Laughter
You don't have to wait forever
It's the next disaster
The lyrics to "Dead End" are a reflection on the state of the world we live in. It begins with the acknowledgement that prayers won't help us find our way back from where we are. The next line, "There's no morning after," suggests that the damage has been done and there's no going back. The use of "we" throughout the song implies that the singer is not alone in feeling lost in the world.
The line "So say goodbye to the world, we are the dead that walk the earth" implies that chaos has taken over and the world is consumed by darkness. The singer is no longer living, but merely a shell of a person, walking through life without purpose. The lyrics suggest that people have become numb to the world around them and the consequences of their actions. The line "What will it take for us to realize, the more we provoke, Winter will come twice" suggests that people continue to act recklessly, unaware that their actions will have consequences.
Overall, the song is a commentary on the state of society and the world we live in. It highlights the importance of taking responsibility for our actions and being mindful of the effects they have on the world around us.
Line by Line Meaning
Save all your prayers
Hope won't help us now
I think we're lost today
We're directionless and hopeless
There's no morning after
There's no hope for a better tomorrow
No one's around to blame
We're all responsible for our own actions and the consequences they bring
I'm not afraid to bleed
I'm willing to sacrifice for you
But I will do it for you
I'm willing to suffer if it means helping you
We'll start among hypocrites
We'll begin in a world full of deceitful people
The melody of our time
The soundtrack to our era of chaos and confusion
So say goodbye to the world
We have nothing left to lose
We are the dead that walk the earth
We're living without purpose or passion
Scream your lungs out
Let out your frustration and anger
Await for laughter
But no one will respond with sympathy or understanding
You don't have to wait forever
Your misery will end eventually
It's the next disaster
But there will always be another crisis waiting around the corner
What decides when you've lost the war
What determines when you've lost everything
When the first man falls
When the first defeat happens
Or when they erase it all
When everything you've built is destroyed
We're too numb to feel
We've become desensitized to pain and suffering
The downfall starts right here
Our demise begins in our own hearts and minds
Hold your breath and swim
Fight against the tide of despair
Swallowed by life's tear
Consumed by life's pain
In times of make believe
During times of false hope
No one really seems to care
No one is truly invested in our well-being
Maybe I should care less
Perhaps it's better to be indifferent
'Cause I will die too
Because we're all mortal
What will it take for us to realize
What needs to happen for us to wake up
The more we provoke
The more we incite conflict
Winter will come twice
The consequences of our actions will come back to haunt us

Lisa should just join In Flames, and the second song they should make was a melodic death metal version of Still Alive

yes, just yes
Sean Powers
Are there any bands that sound like this all the time? It is really disappointing that Lisa Miskovsky isn't a permanent member of the band
Tristan
Sean Powers i found that it is very close to elena siegman, she makes music for cod zombies
