Eternal Rest Lyrics
Black enchanting eyes,
cut through my heart
with no regret or sign of life
They tear apart my pride
and cold runs through my veins
I feel their stare from miles
haunting every step
and they won't stop hunting me down
I know the time will come,
when all around me's burned
and you'll still see me there
Asking where you went too
and what person brought you here
And why you left the burning children
cold out in the night
and calling for you all alone...
Dark in their hearts,
I can feel it burn inside of me
Tormented young with no souls, haunting me
Pain in their lives all they know is misery
Take these chains away that are holding me down
They'll find you alone
and your desperate and villainous ways
Turning their hearts into stone
they seek more then vengeance
Look in their eyes your pain is their satisfaction
Look in their eyes and see the darkness take hold
Burn for the rest of time
Hear the haunting words
lost children with no heart are crying
and your the lost mother their calling
I hear them crying at night
outside when the planets are falling
They want to feel and know you hear them
Go now / Run and hide
Eternal Rest / In time
cut through my heart
with no regret or sign of life
They tear apart my pride
and cold runs through my veins
I feel their stare from miles
haunting every step
and they won't stop hunting me down
I know the time will come,
when all around me's burned
and you'll still see me there
Asking where you went too
and what person brought you here
And why you left the burning children
cold out in the night
and calling for you all alone...
I can feel it burn inside of me
Tormented young with no souls, haunting me
Pain in their lives all they know is misery
Take these chains away that are holding me down
and your desperate and villainous ways
Turning their hearts into stone
they seek more then vengeance
Look in their eyes your pain is their satisfaction
Look in their eyes and see the darkness take hold
Burn for the rest of time
lost children with no heart are crying
and your the lost mother their calling
I hear them crying at night
outside when the planets are falling
They want to feel and know you hear them
Eternal Rest / In time

I'm almost positive this song is about the children God abandoned because they can't enter Heaven until armageddon. the children aren't "litteraly" burning(aka on fire) the burn with the desire to enter heaven. in the bible it talks about how children are born to die and their lives are meaningless. important lyrics to this song are often overlooked b/c they aren't included inthe lyrics that come with the Cd. so here's the missing pieces filled in...
Look in their eyes your pain is their satisfaction. Look in their eyes and see the darkness take hold. (Waiting for...)(Lives consumed by faith, signs of their pure reign, No sign of fair chance.) Burn for the rest of time.
sooo.... they spent thier lives worshipping God only to be rejected by him. they want revenge on one hand but, on the other hand the cry for God to notice them. they are calling for God to release them 'take away their chains, they're holding them down'
they wait impatiently for the end of time(aka armageddon) when they shall recieve their "eternal rest" "outside when the planets are falling"> that's armageddon
Absolutely no idea what it's about, but the beginning 45 seconds are the best 45 seconds of any song that you will ever hear...

Dark in their hearts, I can feel it burn inside of me Tormented young with no souls, haunting me Pain in their lives all they know is misery Take these chains away that are holding me down
They'll find you alone and your desperate and villainous ways turning their hearts into stone They seek more then just vengeance Look in their eyes Feel pain and feel satisfaction Look in through their eyes to see Their No distinct hope (we revolt)Life concerned by faith (we revolt)Dine on pure fury (we revolt)No sign of fair chance (we revolt)Burn! For the rest of time!
Hear the haunting words (they'll find you alone) lost children with no heart are crying (turning your hearts to stone and you're the lost mother they are calling Go now Run and Hide I hear them crying at night (their pain is your statisfaction) outside when the planets are falling (for the rest of time) They want to feel and know you hear them (go now run and hide)
Dark in their hearts, I can feel it burn inside of me Tormented young with no souls, haunting me Pain in their lives all they know is misery Take these chains away that are holding me down
Go now... Run and Hide
Eternal Rest...in time Eternal Rest...in time
People still can't get this right XD
I think it's a pretty self explanatory song.
@Bard545 i agree with you totally, how can people not get the meaning of this song? This song is pretty obviously about sociopaths, narcissists and people with similar kinds of mental disorders who practically turns them into soul-less evil monsters sucking you dry of any emotions. M shadows must have encountered a bunch of em. Trust me i know what i'm talking about I feel the same as this song, word by word.

PS that being said the lyrics you quoted are quite inaccurate.

@Coregasm funny bec the chorus reminds me of the song "walk" by pantera

The Shit. 'Nuff said.
Sounds like its about armageddon. Not sure other then that.

I think this song is about someone who burned a bunch of kids alive and there souls rome the earth. But thats just my opinion.

I agree Sinesthesia. This song is amazing
