The Promise
New Eden Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
is worth the aging of the mind
Go and make your own.....WAY!!!
Slowly moving sands of time
Sheltered by the wings of Infinity
Soldier of his own master plan
Diving in the sea of eternity
Soaring through the winds of the Sky
A promised dream; eternal nights
His shadow's scream; they scream of future times
A tortured soul by candlelight
Story told; told of atomic fire
The God of old is on my side
To tell the future of all mankind
My life's price set on this date
To save us from this prophet's fate
Written, journals of his dreams
Binded by the hands of infinity
Victim of this eternal life
A promised dream; eternal nights
Shadows scream; a scream of future times
Eternal soul, eternal lights
Will make its stand; stand the Immortal fight
The Promise by New Eden speaks about the risk of the unknown, and how taking that risk is worth it, even if it leads to aging and acquiring more experience in life. The first line, "the risk of the horizon," suggests that the future is uncertain, but it is worth taking a chance and going after it. The following line, "is worth the aging of the mind," suggests that despite the trials and challenges that come with taking risks, they result in learning and growth.
The lyrics speak about someone who is determined to chase their dreams, even though they have experienced disappointment and failure before. They are described as a "soldier of his own master plan," indicating that they are the author of their destiny. They are determined to continue on, "drifting endless, broken dreams" and diving "into the sea of eternity." They are also described as "soaring through the winds of the sky," suggesting that they are now flying high, determined to achieve all that they set out to.
The chorus of the song speaks about a promised dream of eternal nights and a tortured soul by candlelight. It also speaks about a God from old times being on their side and the journals of the dreamer's dreams, bound by the hands of infinity. The song ends on a positive note, with the lyrics saying that eternal soul and eternal lights will stand and make their stand against something they call the immortal fight, perhaps suggesting an invincible challenge that must be overcome.
