Another World
Leæther Strip Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the lives are washed
Away by bloodshed
No one's left
To take away the dead
Rats will chew the bones
Of those who crumbled
Death will roam this land
Heartless people sucks
Out all the life-force
Left in those who fight
With no remorse
Truth will be defeated
By the madmen
Truth is strangled
By the insane
Another world
A different world
Will we see destruction
Of our own fate
Can we stop
Before it's too late
If you are a witness
To the slaughter
You will be the one
Who holds the sword
We need a another world
The lyrics of Leæther Strip's "Another World" speak about a world overcome by violence, where lives are lost, and death surrounded by heartless, remorseless individuals. The first verse brings forth the idea of a world where all the lives are being washed away by bloodshed, leaving behind nobody to bury the dead. It talks about the rats who will devour the bones of those who crumbled due to the chaos brought about by death roaming in this black and cold land. It further highlights the notion that heartless people have drawn out all the life-force from the ones that fight with no remorse. The idea of truth becomes a victim to the madmen, and it is strangled by the insane.
In the second verse, the audience is urged to take a step towards a different world. The line, "Another world, a different world," emphasizes the need for a better and more peaceful world that is distinct from the one described in the first verse. It puts forth the question of whether mankind will see destruction and if they'd be able to stop it before it becomes too late. The listeners are then reminded of their role in not just being a witness to violence but becoming an agent of change. The last line speaks about the urgent need for another world.
In conclusion, "Another World" speaks about the bleakness of a world filled with violence and the need for a different world that is peaceful and just. It stresses the role that the audience should play in creating a better world.

Who holds the sword
Who has the power to change things
We need a another world
We require a different environment to survive
