In my opinion, this song is about death. "I can't be further away from endless life" - Pretty self-explanatory. The author realizes that life is approaching it's end - they are about to die. "Oh my god stars flash before my eyes" - The author sees stars flashing. Perhaps they are experiencing some out-of-body thing while fading off towards death. Maybe even transcending into actual space, as some picture the act of death. "I'm slowly fading into my memories" - The author drifts further and further into their memories. As many people believe that this is what happens when you die - all your life flashes before your eyes. "So slowly fading tonight's the last you'll ever see" - Again, self-explanatory - Tonight is the last night you'll ever see. Maybe this is relating to the "stars flash before my eyes". Perhaps the author is watching the night-sky on his very last night alive. "So slowly dreaming the last time" - The author is slowly sinking into his very last sleep. "Oh my god so many people leaving me behind" - The author dies and every1 else keeps living - they are living him behind. "Oh my god remember all those things you tried to hide" - I'm actually not sure about this line. Perhaps while dying, the author is being revealed all the things he or some other person has tried to hide. On a personal note, this was the first song that got me into Tesseract, and I immediately fell in love with them. So mystical and deep, yet groovy and heavy and fat in sound, like no other band. I was going through some life crisis and personal transformation while I discovered this song, and it helped me transcend everything and become a better version of myself. Pure meditative song! |
