Resurrection
Zero Hour Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I breath the air I feel free I feel the sun shine on me
A new direction narrow path place unknown I've never seen
Clouds moving fades to gray there's a spirit lifting me
Mere reflection draws me near distant image as I stare
Is this a dream? Reality? A man lies before me
Eye to eye the man awakes he takes my hand pulls me in
These eyes I recognize I call to you this can't be him
He calls me son you are the light my energy I am home
I am home





Overall Meaning

The opening lines speak of feeling free and basking in the sun, indicating a sense of liberation and joy. The person then embarks on a new journey, taking a narrow path to an unknown place. As they move forward, the surroundings change, and clouds gather, creating a sense of unease. However, the spirit begins to lift them, and they see a distant figure.


The next lines question if the encounter is a dream or reality. The person sees a man lying before them, and as they approach, the individual awakens and takes the singer's hand. The singer recognizes the man's eyes and cries out that this cannot be him. The man identifies himself as the singer's father and calls them the light. The encounter comes full circle as the person finally feels at home.
