Vim! Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When light on the cemetery ways
Lies down like dying shadows
Marble statues of crying angels
Want to throw off the coat of melancholy
I stroke their despaired faces
I understand their great eternal pain
I wipe away their cold sapphire tears
I close their tired eyes for eternity

I'm an embrion imprisoned in the womb of mother
Spirit enslaved in the depth of my own thoughts
I want to know the essence of my world
For other planets are reflection of my vision

I have discovered a source of fire
Yet my words put it out with coolness of ice
But who am I? I cannot understand my tears
I cannot reach my stars - vim patior!

I wander dressed in the coat of Baphomet
Past the hills of enchanted dreams
I embrace the circle of pentagram
I summon breath of the cosmic spirit
I fall asleep engrossed in my magic
Exclusive art of night

With a spell I greet every tree
Every trunk I touch with my poetry




When the clock strikes my time
Pushed by winds I'll leave this world behind

Idea for a extension for the full song and not just after the 2nd time it loops if anyone wants to animate this:

0:00 The Iconic
0:25 Edd’s uncovered scene
0:56 The 2nd deleted scene by Edd, Tom is dizzy.
1:07 a close up of Edd absolutely SHREDDING the guitar
1:11 It zooms out to see Tord vibing how he does every other scene, just full body while Tom’s unconscious on the floor
1:19 Edd falls down stairs that were off-screen
1:22 Edd now fallen on the floor continues shreddin’
1:26 Tord then falls down the stairs too
1:38 Edd stops shredding to take a breath
1:41 Edd get’s hit in the nuts with a cola can Sugar Sugar style
1:42 The iconic scene again but Edd has a black eye and Tom is gone
1:50 Tord can stop vibrating now and holds his head to stop while open-mouth frowning
1:57 Matt’s back again but instead of yelling at them he’s calling the cops while being worried, and Tord’s still uncontrollably shaking while
1:59 The Trio’s in the hospital unconscious
2:06 They all jump out of their hospital beds
2:07 They’re running out the hospital and to outside
2:14 Repeat of Edd’s first deleted scene but instead of evening it’s night
2:37 They run off screen and into the setup of the iconic scene
2:41 The iconic scene but synced to the other part
2:49 Tom quits doing his thing and goes off screen and then later back on screen drunk with Smirnoff
2:57 Tord stops, looks around, then starts reading hentai
3:04 Camera pans to just Edd now, doing his neck thing
3:09 Edd does a cheeky Tooth Smile
3:10 The syllables of Just A Bit Cra Zy and Eddsworld 2008 flash on to screen to the final 6 notes.

I listen to this song a lot. I also often don't like to wear my headphones because they're uncomfortable, so I play it without them, and my whole family can hear it in our small apartment. They usually don't mind, but sometimes they get irritated because it's the only song I ever really play. It annoys them, but not very much.


It drives them just a bit crazy.
