Apocalypse
Metalite Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Without distance glowing fantasy
To touch to the other side
But the world around you differs
From the dreams inside your mind
You breathe beyond the reality
Imagination you can't rewind
The skies coming alive
And the facing rolling thunder
Sorry like a beast in hunger
Bright, bright from the lights
The world going under
A part them to stay alive
You live, you die the apocalypse is now
Feeling now cause you were gonna make it
You were see and all go down
As you running hard for shelter
It's going supernova seen the sky
In the end there is no compromise
No confession to be relieved
You live in constant agony
Without hope for be you free
The skies come burning down
And the ways to getting higher
Passed down set the world on fire
Bright, bright for the lights
You'd see the end is coming
To coming to stay alive
You live, you die the apocalypse is now
Feeling now cause you were gonna make it
You were see and all go down
As you running hard for shelter
It's going supernova seen the sky
(You live, you die) (The apocalypses now)
You live, you die the apocalypse is now
Feeling now cause you were gonna make it
You were see and all go down
As you running hard for shelter
It's going supernova seen the sky
You live (You live) , you die (you die)
The apocalypse is now (apocalypse is now)
Feeling now cause you were gonna make it
(you were gonna make it)
You were see and go down
As you running hard for shelter
It's going supernova seen the sky
The lyrics of Metalite's song "Apocalypse" depict a sense of disillusionment and a longing for escape from the harsh realities of life. The song presents a contrast between the fantastical dreams and imagination of the singer and the stark, unforgiving world they live in. The opening lines suggest that the singer was born into a world that does not align with their idealized fantasies. They aspire to reach the "other side" and escape the limitations of their reality. However, they are unable to rewind or change their circumstances.
The chorus of the song speaks to the impending doom and destruction that the singer feels. The "skies coming alive" and "rolling thunder" symbolize the chaos and unpredictability of the world around them. They feel sorry and hungry like a beast, witnessing the world going under and desperately trying to stay alive. The lyrics express a sense of urgency and fear as the singer runs hard for shelter, witnessing the sky going supernova.
In the following verses, the song continues to emphasize the singer's desperation and lack of hope. There is no compromise or relief from their constant agony. They are trapped in a world without any possibility of freedom or escape. The skies continue to burn down, and the end is coming. The lyrics evoke a feeling of resignation as the singer accepts their fate, living and dying in the midst of the apocalypse.
In summary, "Apocalypse" by Metalite explores themes of disillusionment, desperation, and longing for escape. The lyrics reflect a sense of disconnect between the singer's dreams and the harsh realities of their existence. The song conveys a feeling of impending doom and the struggle to survive in a world on the verge of destruction.

Born you were born in brought to live
You were born into this world, brought to life

From the dreams and desires within your mind
You breathe beyond the reality
You yearn for something beyond what is real
Imagination you can't rewind
You cannot go back and change your imagination
The skies coming alive

And the thunder rolls in, creating a sense of impending danger
Sorry like a beast in hunger
The thunder roars like a hungry beast
Bright, bright from the lights
The lights shine brightly
The world going under
The world is descending into chaos
A part them to stay alive
To survive, one must separate themselves from the chaos
You live, you die the apocalypse is now
You exist, but eventually you will die, and the apocalypse is happening in the present
Feeling now cause you were gonna make it
You feel it now because you believed you would succeed
You were see and all go down
You witness everything collapsing and falling apart
As you running hard for shelter
As you desperately seek refuge
It's going supernova seen the sky
Everything is exploding and disintegrating, and you can witness it in the sky
In the end there is no compromise
Ultimately, there can be no agreement or resolution
No confession to be relieved
There is no confession or admission that can bring relief
You live in constant agony
You exist in a state of constant torment
Without hope for be you free
There is no hope for you to be free
The skies come burning down
The sky is engulfed in flames
And the ways to getting higher
And the means of escape are becoming more out of reach
Passed down set the world on fire
A decree has been passed down to ignite the world
Bright, bright for the lights
The lights remain bright
You'd see the end is coming
You would witness the impending end
To coming to stay alive
To survive, you must keep moving forward
(You live, you die) (The apocalypses now)
You exist, you eventually die, and the apocalypse is happening in the present
You live (You live) , you die (you die)
You exist, you eventually die
The apocalypse is now (apocalypse is now)
The apocalypse is happening in the present
Feeling now cause you were gonna make it
You feel it now because you believed you would succeed
(you were gonna make it)
Because you were convinced you would succeed
You were see and go down
You witness everything collapsing and falling apart
As you running hard for shelter
As you desperately seek refuge
It's going supernova seen the sky
Everything is exploding and disintegrating, and you can witness it in the sky

Sing along with me over the chorus now...
This is the tale of Captain Jack Sparrow...
Pirate so brave on the seven seas.
A mystical quest to the isle of Tortuga ...
Raven locks sway on the ocean's breeze.
Same melody, just a hair slower. Nothing wrong with that :)
