Regrets
Wedding in Hades Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From the coldest place where I was laid to rest
To rise from the dead and claim again
A life-long day or an hour to spend
A dust of time, a blink of an eye
This would be my golden opportunity to reach thee
Ain't begging for redemption or compassion
But memories are aching for eon
So let me utter this irrelevant statement
In order to erase them all
But my cowardice was blinding me
Like the brightness of the moonbeams
Shatters the blackness of the night
To writhe in pain in my former condition
Beyond the gates of oblivion
From the coldest place where I was laid to rest
To rise from the dead and claim again
A life-long day or an hour to spend
A dust of time, a blink of an eye
This would be my golden opportunity to reach thee
Ain't begging for redemption or compassion
But memories are aching for eon
My soul is shrouded in regrets
So let me utter this irrelevant statement
In order to erase them all
But my cowardice was blinding me
Like the brightness of the moonbeams
Shatters the blackness of the night
The lyrics of "Regrets" by Wedding in Hades center around the idea of missed opportunities and the regret that comes with them. The singer speaks from beyond the gates of oblivion, indicating that they are dead or at least separated from the living world. They long to "reach thee," whoever that may be, and to spend even just a small amount of time with them. The singer acknowledges that they are not seeking redemption or compassion, but rather the chance to make up for lost time and memories that continue to ache for eon (an impossibly long period of time).
Despite this desire, the singer recognizes their own cowardice, which has blinded them to opportunities in the past. They compare this to the brightness of moonbeams shattering the darkness of night, perhaps indicating that they were overwhelmed or intimidated by the opportunities that presented themselves. Now, they are left to writhe in pain in their former condition, with regrets shrouding their soul. Ultimately, the singer hopes that by uttering an irrelevant statement, they can somehow erase their regrets and find the peace they long for.
Overall, the song highlights the universal experience of regret and the longing for second chances. The use of vivid imagery and poetic language adds to the emotional impact of the lyrics.
