Heart Attack
Soul Sanctuary Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A fallen angel born with broken wings.
A majestic lie without an ounce of truth.
And in this moment heaven starts to swallow you!
So many years I believed in you. (the lies you told)
You deceived me to my face.
Never again will I trust in you (trust in you)
In loving memory of those soon to pass.
Rejoice in the regrets of this worthless soul.
Your faith has forsaken you, but I forsake my faith.
And with your dying breath I hear you cry in vain. "Forgive me God!"
So many years I believed in you. (the lies you told)
You deceived me to my face.
Never again will I trust in you (trust in you)
And I won't she'd my tears for your heart attack.
(Heart attack)
Your time is over now, your life is up.
Your life is over now, your time is...
Your time is!
Your time is!
Now!
So many years I believed in you. (the lies you told)
You deceived me to my face.
Never again will I trust in you (trust in you)
And I won't she'd my tears for your heart attack.
I said I don't believe in you, rest in peace, now and forever (father)
I said I don't believe in you, (save me), rest in peace.
Heart Attack by Soul Sanctuary is a heavy and emotional song about betrayal and loss of faith. The lyrics describe the suffering caused by broken promises and deceit, leading to a loss of trust in someone who was believed to be reliable. The fallen angel with broken wings represents the failure of this person, who was once great but has now fallen from grace. The majestic lie without an ounce of truth further emphasizes the sense of betrayal and disillusionment.
The chorus builds on this sense of loss, with the singer expressing the refusal to cry over the person's heart attack. The bridge adds another layer of complexity, with the mention of those soon to pass and the regrets of a worthless soul. The reference to God and the cry for forgiveness in vain further deepen the emotional intensity of the song. The repeated refrain of "your time is over now, your life is up" brings a sense of finality and closure to the song.
The song is deeply personal and emotional, dealing with themes that are universal and relatable. It speaks to the pain and sadness of betrayal, the disillusionment with people we once trusted, and the struggle to maintain one's faith and belief in something greater than ourselves. The heavy guitar riffs, soaring vocals, and powerful drumming add to the emotional impact of the song, making it a powerful anthem for anyone dealing with loss and betrayal.
