The Final Truth
Lunatic Soul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Remove from consciousness
All instances
That used to be significant
I never thought those things
Would have such meaning
Until he asked me to
Give them back
What will survive of me
A cardboard box with thoughts inside
What will survive of me
My little escapes from real life
What will survive
And what will I take
To the land of endless ones
If I sever the past
It will be so dark here
We want to be loved
Loved for what we are
We want to be saved
But our final truth depends on time
So what will survive of me
A cardboard box with thoughts inside
What will survive of me
My little escapes from real life
What will survive
And what will I take
To the land of the endless ones
If I sever the past
It will be so dark here
When I met The Ferryman
He smiled to me
Could swear I saw this smile before
"You have to choose" - he said
"And then you may return
You'll get another chance to revive
If you decide to keep
Your memories from the past
By all else, you must be forgotten
If you let me take your mind
If you let me take your soul
In their hearts you'll stay forever
Your choice
The time is now
At the crossroads of your afterlife
The part of you must be lost
Make up your mind
Choose the side
Pick the card
Throw the coin from your mouth
Cause the time is now
I'm calling you again
Let's see what color
Your rising sun will have this time"
The lyrics of Lunatic Soul’s “The Final Truth” deals with the concept of leaving behind one’s own past in order to move on to a different future. The song revolves around the idea of embracing change, making difficult choices, and letting go of the past to create new opportunities for the future. The singer seems to be struggling with the weight of his memories, unable to forget his past and move on. The song highlights the singer’s desire to be loved and accepted for who he is, rather than the memory of who he was. It reminds listeners that our choices shape our future and our final truth depends on how we choose to live our lives.
The lyrics of the song are deeply philosophical, and it seems that they were written to explore some of the existential questions that we all face at some point in our lives. For instance, the chorus of the song seems to reflect on how we all want to be remembered after we die. Interestingly, the song introduces another character, The Ferryman, who gives the singer a choice to choose between his past and future. It's a countdown to the final truth.

So easy to forget
It's easy to forget things and remove them from our consciousness
Remove from consciousness
To take away something from our mind
All instances
Everything that happened in the past
That used to be significant
Things from the past that had meaning but we've forgotten them
I never thought those things
These things never seemed important before
Would have such meaning
Until someone asked us to remember them and we give it meaning
Until he asked me to
When someone reminds us of something from the past
Give them back
To recall and remember them in full detail
What will survive of me
What will be left of me when I'm gone
A cardboard box with thoughts inside
Only our thoughts and memories will be left behind when we die
My little escapes from real life
Our escapes from the reality of the world
And what will I take
What can we take with us to the afterlife
To the land of endless ones
To the afterlife, where time never ends
If I sever the past
If we forget our past
It will be so dark here
Our present would be dark and uncertain
We want to be loved
Everyone wants to be loved for who they truly are
Loved for what we are
Not loved for who we pretend to be or who someone wants us to be, but who we truly are
We want to be saved
We all seek redemption and salvation
But our final truth depends on time
Our ultimate fate depends on time and chance
When I met The Ferryman
The moment when I faced death and met the ferryman to guide me to the afterlife
He smiled to me
The ferryman greeted me warmly
Could swear I saw this smile before
The smile seemed familiar, like I had seen it before
"You have to choose" - he said
The ferryman gave me a choice to make
"And then you may return
If I choose wisely, I may return to the living world
You'll get another chance to revive
I'll have another chance to live my life but with a different perspective
If you decide to keep
But if I choose wrongly
Your memories from the past
And hold onto my memories from the past
By all else, you must be forgotten
I must forget everything else to keep my memories from the past
If you let me take your mind
If I give up my memories, the ferryman will take my mind
If you let me take your soul
And my soul as well
In their hearts you'll stay forever
My legacy and memories will live on in the hearts of those who remember me
Your choice
The decision is mine
The time is now
The present moment is crucial
At the crossroads of your afterlife
A moment of decision in the afterlife that determines our path
The part of you must be lost
We have to leave some parts of ourselves behind
Make up your mind
The time to make a choice is now
Choose the side
Choose between different possible paths
Pick the card
Make a random choice between different possibilities
Throw the coin from your mouth
A ritualistic act of choosing, giving up something valuable
Cause the time is now
This moment is crucial to our fate
I'm calling you again
The ferryman is offering another chance to choose
Let's see what color
The randomness of life and chances
Your rising sun will have this time"
What path will we take and what life will we have this time around
