Wish
The Divine Madness Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

THE DIVINE MADNESS

Sometimes I feel alone in the dark
Sometimes I feel the pressure will tear me apart

But you disappeared
When darkness creeps around me
Wish you were here

The sound of devils and angels fill my mind
Whispering spirits
Unholy and Divine

But you disappeared
When madness creeps around me
Wish you were here

We were not ordinary people
Bound to every fairy tale were told
Without you I get no mercy
From a world that feels so desolate and cold

Sometimes I feel I'll see you once again
But I know there's nothing to save us in the end

So you disappeared
When darkness creeps around me




Wish you were here
Wish you were here

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of The Divine Madness's song "Wish" describe the feeling of being alone and lost in the darkness, surrounded by whispers of both Good and Evil forces. The singer of the song expresses the wish that someone they'd lost "were here" with them, to help them through the madness and torment. In the verse, the singer mentions feeling "pressure" that threatens to "tear [them] apart" and hearing "the sound of devils and angels" in their head, causing them to feel unhinged.


In the chorus, the singer repeats the lines "you disappeared when darkness creeps around me, wish you were here" twice. This repetition emphasizes the intensity of the singer's desire to be reunited with the person who left them, who they feel could offer comfort and support in times of trouble. At the end of the song, the final verse acknowledges that the singer will likely never see the person they miss again, but they still hold onto the hope that they will, even if it's just a fleeting moment. In essence, the singer is asking for something impossible, but that doesn't stop them from wishing for it.


Line by Line Meaning

Sometimes I feel alone in the dark
Occasionally, I experience solitude while in the obscurity


Sometimes I feel the pressure will tear me apart
Occasionally, I feel as if the tension will rip me to shreds


But you disappeared
However, you vanished


When darkness creeps around me
During moments when gloom encroaches upon me


Wish you were here
I yearn for your presence


The sound of devils and angels fill my mind
The clamor of demons and deities occupy my thoughts


Whispering spirits
Murmuring apparitions


Unholy and Divine
Sinister and Sacred


We were not ordinary people
We were not typical individuals


Bound to every fairy tale were told
Tied to each folklore we knew


Without you I get no mercy
Devoid of you, I receive no compassion


From a world that feels so desolate and cold
From a universe that appears so barren and aloof


Sometimes I feel I'll see you once again
At times, I sense I'll encounter you again


But I know there's nothing to save us in the end
But I comprehend that we have no rescue in the conclusion


So you disappeared
Thus, you vanished


When darkness creeps around me
During moments when gloom encroaches upon me


Wish you were here
I yearn for your presence


Wish you were here
I yearn for your presence
