Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The days they are like in campegeum
stayin with coffee
.of tears and rain
some song battle of the .broken heart
troupe of door away
where the story straight it beatin' past
on that line the feelings are already dog .
trigger song in for a single
and a chance to see your name on the .

So they go back home
just to find that long lost try
better sell it all first that that you're spinnin
'cause radio can't rewind
radio can't rewind

Back out on is bust my back
is tired and my head is ain't alone
I'm sick of all this talk from man
and never live a day from what this ain't no

with echos of those singers past
and to my aching heart it helped my soul to rest
will they fit upon a niddle with .be the very best

So they go back home
just to find that long lost time
'cause it all come to be distant memory
radio can't rewind
the radio can't rewind

Uh great sing
for the loss of every .
'cause we know will never have that time again

so you go back home
just to find that long lost time
years of go like songs they came before you
the radio can't rewind
yes radio can't rewind




oh radio can't rewind
oh radio can't rewind

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sons of Bill's song Last Call at the Eschaton are full of emotions as they describe the longing for the past and the realization that time cannot be reversed or relived. The first verse paints a picture of a rainy day with tearful thoughts and a feeling of loneliness that is accompanied by music. The passage "some song battle of the .broken heart" could refer to a song that reminds the singer of a lost love and stirs up emotions within them. The line "where the story straight it beatin' past" probably refers to the fact that no matter how much we try to justify or analyze our past actions, the time has already passed and we cannot change it. The last phrase "on that line the feelings are already dog" suggests that the emotions and memories associated with a specific time are already ingrained in our mind.


The second verse also deals with the theme of nostalgia as the singer describes coming home and realizing that time has passed quickly and they have lost precious moments. The phrase "better sell it all first that that you're spinnin" could suggest that the singer wants to let go of their material possessions and focus on the memories and experiences that they have had. The line "radio can't rewind" is repeated several times throughout the song, emphasizing the fact that we cannot turn back time and relive moments that have already passed.


Overall, the song Last Call at the Eschaton is a poignant reminder that time is fleeting and that we must cherish the present moment as it quickly becomes a distant memory. The longing for the past is a universal feeling, but ultimately we must accept that we cannot travel back in time and that the present is all we have.
