End Credits
Williams John Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Heart feels no more pain
I know, I'll be on my way,
To heavens door,
I know when I'm not,
I'll be hoping I don't drop,
To a place where I will rise, like before,
I know when I'm not,
I'll be hoping I don't drop,
To a place where I will rise, like before,
I can feel, something happening
That I've never felt before
Hopeless dreaming will start,
Dragging me away from heavens door
I can feel, something happening
That I've never felt before
Hopeless dreaming will start,
Dragging me away from heavens door
When my mind stops thinking,
My eyes stop blinking,
I hope
Somebody's there.
And my heart stops beating
And my lungs stop breathing
In air,
I hope somebody cares,
When the blood dries in my veins and my
Heart feels no more pain
I know, I'll be on my way,
To heavens door,
I know when I'm not,
I'll be hoping I don't drop,
To a place where I will rise, like before,
I know when I'm not,
I'll be hoping I don't drop,
To a place where I will rise, like before,
I can feel, something happening
That I've never felt before
Hopeless dreams will start,
Dragging me away from heavens door
When my mind stops thinking,
My eyes stop blinking,
I hope
Somebody's there.
And my heart stops beating
And my lungs stop breathing
In air,
I hope somebody cares,
When my mind stops thinking
My eyes stop blinking
I know
At the end.
The lyrics to "End Credits" by Williams John explore themes of mortality and the afterlife. As the song progresses, the singer reflects on what will happen to them after they pass away. The first stanza suggests that the singer will find peace and make their way to heaven when they die. However, in the second and third stanzas, the lyrics convey a sense of uncertainty and fear about what happens after death. The singer hopes that someone will be there with them and that they will not end up in a place where they will have to rise again. The final stanza brings the song to a close with a final admission of the singer's own mortality.
The song's melody is somber and reflective, with John's distinctive orchestral sound providing a lush and cinematic backdrop to the lyrics. The repeated phrase "I can feel something happening" adds to the sense of uncertainty and impending change, while the chorus is powerful and emotive.
Overall, "End Credits" is a moving meditation on life, death, and what lies beyond. The song's themes are universal and relatable, and its lyrics and melody combine to create an emotionally resonant piece of music.
