Stay Alive
Silverheart Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With full moon and cold winter
He could never have imagined
That a tragedy awaited him
Earlier in the morning
They counted many victims
The news named the creature
Some things go beyond reality
Breaking the boundaries of nature
This thing has no humanity
He's howling in the distance
Stay alive, away from death
He brings the darkness and hell
Stay alive, for one more day
There is no time to ask for help
Now he's running from the shadows
Hearing steps behind
But something stops him
He cannot go too far
He feel a breathing
But nothing's over there
It's the darker presence
Comming from the hell
He sees blood on his own hands
And a reflex in a mirror
Showing that all this time
He's the thirsty creature
Stay alive, away from death
There is a choice to make
Stay alive, for one more day
Or finish now before you change
Stay alive, away from death
He brings the darkness and hell
Stay alive, for one more day
There is no time to ask for help
Stay alive, away from death
There is a choice to make
Stay alive, for one more day
Or finish now before you change
RUN, STAY ALIVE AWAY FROM DEATH
HE BRINGS THE DARKNESS
RUN, STAY ALIVE FOR ONE MORE DAY...
STAY ALIVE
The song "Stay Alive" by Silverheart tells the story of a man who becomes the victim of a supernatural creature known as the "dark slayer". The man had no idea that this tragedy awaited him on the night when he encountered the dark slayer, a creature which had been responsible for many other victims earlier in the morning. The creature is inhuman, beyond reality, and its howling can be heard from a distance. The song urges the man to stay alive and keep away from death since there is no time to ask for help. While running from the shadows and hearing footsteps behind him, the singer feels a presence, which turns out to be his own darker side. The man realizes that he is the one who has caused all this, and he has become the thirsty creature.
The song has a strong message of survival and inner awareness. It tells us that things can go beyond reality and that some tragic events catch us by surprise. The song encourages us to stay alive by taking a choice, realizing our inner selves, and facing our darkest fears. We have to be aware of our actions, contemplate our choices, and stay away from death, darkness, and hell. In a way, it warns us of the consequences of our actions and the importance of making the right choice when faced with difficult situations.
