End Of The Line
Pain Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My gun is pumping you're down on your knees
A closer step to death
I think I'm coming, are you ready to receive?
I spray you full with my killer disease

I'll come inside, I'll break you down
Your end of your life
I'll steal your soul, I'm in control
I just made you mine

It's the end of the line
You're broken to pieces crushed by the facts
It's the end of the line
How could this be

Face the enemy and meet reality
How could you be so blind
Now you're tasting death it controls your mind
Suffering years ahead

I came inside, I have broke you down
I ended your life
I stole your soul, I was in control
And I made you mine

It's the end of the line
You're broken to pieces crushed by the facts
It's the end of the line
It's not what it supposed to be

It's the end of the line
You're broken to pieces crushed by the facts
It's the end of the line
How could this be

How could you be so tough?

It's the end of the line
You're broken to pieces crushed by the facts
It's the end of the line
It's not what it supposed to be

It's the end of the line
You're broken to pieces crushed by the facts
It's the end of the line
How could this be

It's the end of the line
You're broken to pieces crushed by the facts
It's the end of the line
It's not what it supposed to be

It's the end of the line
You're broken to pieces crushed by the facts




It's the end of the line
How could this be

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Pain's song "End Of The Line" seem to describe a violent scene where the singer is standing over their victim who is down on their knees, possibly pleading for their life. The use of the metaphor "my gun is pumping" suggests that the singer is either physically or emotionally dominant over their victim as they spray them with "killer disease". The repetition of the line "I came inside, I have broke you down, I ended your life, I stole your soul, I was in control" further emphasizes the singer's power and control over their victim.


The chorus, "It's the end of the line, you're broken to pieces crushed by the facts" suggests that the victim has finally come to terms with their fate and their own mortality. The lines "Face the enemy and meet reality, how could you be so blind, now you're tasting death, it controls your mind, suffering years ahead" suggest that the victim may have been living in denial, and their eventual acceptance of the situation brings them both clarity and suffering.


The final lines "How could you be so tough?" could be interpreted as the singer taunting their victim for their initial resistance or defense, or possibly even a question directed at the singer themselves, questioning their own ability to go through with the act of violence.

This band is the missing link that I never heard till 2 days ago it's just perfect, it's like my new rediscovery of Linkin Park or Disturbed.

@alexwoodman7889

Когда говорят, что Pain - группа одной песни. Я, мягко говоря, не согласен. Всем привет из 20го!

@user-we8jd9zv8d

Полностью согласен, я думаю - не дали до конца группе раскрытся. Если честно у них, что каждая песня просто улёт.
