Suicide Commando Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To leave this state of mind
To save their world
And leave this hell
Fear now that the end is near
There's no way out of here
Now that you're dead
Neuro suspension - eternal life extension
Time to make your final prayers
To breach this spoil of death
There's no return
Don't let me burn
Fear now that the end is near
There's no way out of here
Now that you're dead
Came way too near
Neuro suspension - eternal life extension
Time to leave this life behind
To leave this state of mind
To save their world
And leave this hell
Fear now that the end is near
There's no way out of here
Now that you're dead
Came way too near
Neuro suspension - eternal life extension

Line by Line Meaning
Time to leave this life behind
It's now time to abandon this current life
To leave this state of mind
We must discard our current mindset
To save their world
We aspire to rescue their planet
And leave this hell
And depart from this horrible place
Fear now that the end is near
It's natural to feel anxious when death is approaching
There's no way out of here
We cannot escape from this current situation
Now that you're dead
Now that we've left this mortal existence
Came way too near
We were too close to the brink of death
Neuro suspension - eternal life extension
Neuro Suspension is a way to extend our mortal lives indefinitely
Time to make your final prayers
It's time for us to make our last devotions
To breach this spoil of death
To break the cycle of death
There's no return
There's no turning back from this decision
Don't let me burn
Please don't let me experience the agony of death
