This Impossible Moment
Paragon of Beauty Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes I am infinite
Sometimes I am dead tired
You have seen me there
On the ground, without heartbeat

Weird they are, the frail colours
Of this impossible moment

I hoped the wind would glean colder
I have searched for reasons to live
You have seen me here by your side
A fragile night

Weird they are, the frail colours
Of this impossible moment
Countless thoughts have rushed
Through my cruel mind
Who was there - inside the end?

The end, the end, the end...

Line by Line Meaning

Sometimes I am infinite
Occasionally I feel boundless and endless

Sometimes I am dead tired
Sometimes I am completely and utterly exhausted

You have seen me there
You have witnessed me in that state

On the ground, without heartbeat
Lying on the ground, without a pulse

Weird they are, the frail colours
The delicate shades are strange

Of this impossible moment
Of this moment that seems impossible

I hoped the wind would glean colder
I wished the wind would become colder

I have searched for reasons to live
I have hunted for causes to continue living

You have seen me here by your side
You have observed me beside you

A fragile night
A delicate and vulnerable evening

Countless thoughts have rushed
Innumerable ideas have flooded
