Seasons Of The World
Siderartica Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

God dies in the mind of those who are unable to stay
Now sit down and wait for
Wait for your end

While the rays of light are shuting you up
While your eyes are sparkling pain
While your heart does not succeed in saying aword anymore
Do you recognise the smile of that man?
Do you remember about him?
There are no more memories...
And what remains is just wondering what happened before
Who did you see and kill?
Think...




It shouldn't have been this way
Now, all that remains is laughing

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Siderartica's song Seasons of the World is a contemplation of loss, despair and the inevitability of death. The first stanza speaks about the death of God in the minds of those who find it hard to hold on to their faith. The lines "Now sit down and wait for, Wait for your end" suggest that the loss of faith leads one to a state of hopelessness and resignation, where all that's left to do is wait for the inevitable end.


The second stanza describes the physical and emotional pain that the singer is going through. The "rays of light" could be metaphorical for hope or positivity, which are slowly fading away. The "sparkling pain" in the eyes suggests tears and the "heart not succeeding in saying a word anymore" conveys the weight of the sorrow. The lines "Do you recognise the smile of that man? Do you remember about him?" give the impression that the singer is toiling in the past, wondering about someone who is gone. The last line of the stanza "And what remains is just wondering what happened before, Who did you see and kill?" adds a layer of suspense, making the listener curious about what the singer is contemplating.


The final stanza is a rumination on the futility of life. The line "Think... It shouldn't have been this way" indicates regret and a sense of things turning out differently than expected. The last line "Now, all that remains is laughing" could either be interpreted as a resignation to the tragedy of life or a way of coping with it. Overall, the song lyrics seem to be a reflection on the ephemeral nature of life and the inevitability of death.
