Twilight
emjaay Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been on the port-side
I've been slouching out, inside my mind
I hear all the people saying live another fucking life
Cause I've been living in a zone they call the twilight
And I'll be sitting here without you waiting to be mine

Cause I've been living in a zone they call the twilight
And I'll be sitting here without you waiting to be mine

Cause I've been living in a zone they call the twilight
And I'll be sitting here without you waiting to be mine

The glistening
The blistening
The stars are in my eyes
Exit the mind, of human kind
To see beyond, the line of sight

The universe is made of things
That only you and me can see
That only you and me can be
Start the growth, I'm planting seeds

Supernova, flash out dust
All our metals turn to rust
Human kind is lost to lust
None to blame but the rest of us

And I'll try
To hide
But memories won't subside
The human kind has died
Ashes fall from the skies

Sent out to twilight we go
Ever growing space, out of levels
To climb out like a silhouette on
The edge of space and time, greater vessels

Twilight
Twilight
Twilight
Twilight

I've been on the port-side
I've been slouching out, inside my mind
I hear all the people saying live another fucking life




Cause I've been living in a zone they call the twilight
And I'll be sitting here without you waiting to be mine

Line by Line Meaning

I've been on the port-side
I have been experiencing life on the outskirts, away from the mainstream


I've been slouching out, inside my mind
I have been mentally withdrawn and lost in my own thoughts


I hear all the people saying live another fucking life
I am aware of the societal pressure to conform and live a different life


Cause I've been living in a zone they call the twilight
Because I have been inhabiting a state of existence that is in between reality and fantasy


And I'll be sitting here without you waiting to be mine
I will remain here, longing for your companionship, hoping for a connection


The glistening
The shimmering, radiant aspects


The blistening
The painful, discomforting aspects


The stars are in my eyes
I am full of wonder and dreams


Exit the mind, of human kind
Escape the limited thinking of humanity


To see beyond, the line of sight
To perceive things that are beyond what can be physically seen


The universe is made of things
The cosmos consists of various entities


That only you and me can see
That are only visible to us, not everyone else


That only you and me can be
That only we can embody and understand


Start the growth, I'm planting seeds
Initiate progress by sowing the seeds of change


Supernova, flash out dust
A massive explosion releasing cosmic dust


All our metals turn to rust
Everything we value eventually decays and loses its worth


Human kind is lost to lust
Humanity has become consumed by desire and craving


None to blame but the rest of us
We are all responsible for the current state of affairs


And I'll try
I will make an effort


To hide
To conceal or suppress


But memories won't subside
But the memories refuse to fade away


The human kind has died
Humanity has metaphorically perished


Ashes fall from the skies
The remnants of our existence descend from above


Sent out to twilight we go
We are destined to venture into the mysterious twilight


Ever growing space, out of levels
An ever-expanding cosmos, surpassing boundaries


To climb out like a silhouette on
To ascend like a shadow on


The edge of space and time, greater vessels
The boundaries between space and time, transcending limitations


Twilight
An in-between state of existence


Twilight
An in-between state of existence


Twilight
An in-between state of existence


Twilight
An in-between state of existence


I've been on the port-side
I have been experiencing life on the outskirts, away from the mainstream


I've been slouching out, inside my mind
I have been mentally withdrawn and lost in my own thoughts


I hear all the people saying live another fucking life
I am aware of the societal pressure to conform and live a different life


Cause I've been living in a zone they call the twilight
Because I have been inhabiting a state of existence that is in between reality and fantasy


And I'll be sitting here without you waiting to be mine
I will remain here, longing for your companionship, hoping for a connection
