Pandora Lyrics
The daylight's gone.
The empty streets echo our past and the days that once were so beautiful.
Before now.
Before us.
So save yourself.
'Cause all dreams are gone.
And all hope has faded.
And as the sunlight fails i watch this world slip away.
And we smiled as we betrayed ourselfes.
And a clear sky is only a distant memory.
Our worst intentions carried away on the evening breathe.
Everything we lived for draws our final thought around our necks.
Your face lies still.
I can't see your breath and it's freezing my blood until the end.
One more time one more line.
What is this hell.
Reminisce to the beginning of everything.
But the irony alone would kill me.
Ten thousand hearts set to silence for the choice of one.
End it all with the touch of a switch and i can see our lives burn befrore my eyes.
'Cause all dreams are gone.
And all hope has faded.
And as the sunlight fails i watch this world slip away.
Your face lies still.
I can't see your breath and its freezing my blod until the end.
Ten thousand hearts set to silence for the choice of one.
End it all with the touch of a switch and i can see our lives burn.
I can see our lives.
I can see our lives burn.
Your face lies still.
I can't see your breath and it's freezing my blood until the end.
As we just let it slip away.
The empty streets echo our past and the days that once were so beautiful.
Before now.
Before us.
So save yourself.
'Cause all dreams are gone.
And all hope has faded.
And as the sunlight fails i watch this world slip away.
And we smiled as we betrayed ourselfes.
And a clear sky is only a distant memory.
Our worst intentions carried away on the evening breathe.
Everything we lived for draws our final thought around our necks.
I can't see your breath and it's freezing my blood until the end.
What is this hell.
Reminisce to the beginning of everything.
But the irony alone would kill me.
Ten thousand hearts set to silence for the choice of one.
And all hope has faded.
And as the sunlight fails i watch this world slip away.
I can't see your breath and its freezing my blod until the end.
I can see our lives.
I can see our lives burn.
I can't see your breath and it's freezing my blood until the end.
As we just let it slip away.

I personally believe this song is about a cheese sandwich, I mean look at the lyric: 'Your face lies still' Am I right folks?
Dude, you couldn't be any more wrong about the meaning. It's clearly about a pickle and tuna sandwich.

Than what about the lyric that clearly contradicts your point, "and all hope has faded" which implies that the supplier of your sandwich ran out of pickles. fuckhead

Touché, my good friend... But! you must be forgetting the ever important lyrics "I can't see your breath and it's freezing my blood until the end" which implies that you are a fuckwit, and also that there is a spare pickle in the freezer.

Sounds to me like an account of a nuclear bombing. I don't think this song is really related to anything to do with what pervious comments have mentioned.
The first verse describes the effect that it caused. The destruction that a bombing would leave. The daylight blocked out by dust clouds, the streets are empty, and this was all before us. They're saying we caused the damage. At the part where they go on about saving yourself, ("all dreams are gone," "all hope has faded") .. I'd interpret that as somewhat of a "fuck it, do what you can, nobody's safe" message.
"We smiled as we betrayed ourselves." Somewhere upstream, somewhere where the decision was made to drop a bomb, somebody smiled.. and they smiled as they betrayed the human race.
"Our worst intentions carried away on the evening breath. Everything we lived for draws our final thought around our necks." An evening breath, I'd interpret this as a single sigh or a breath before or after the bomber dropped it. Just that single breath, on one evening, and there goes every intention - worst and best ones. There goes everything we lived for.
"Your face lies still. I can't see your breath and it's freezing my blood until the end." I'd say somebody close is now dead as a result.
"What is this hell. Reminisce to the beginning of everything. But the irony alone would kill me. Ten thousand hearts set to silence for the choice of one. End it all with the touch of a switch and I can see our lives burn befrore my eyes." Trying to say that if you were to think back, think about human nature in its self, the whole situation would be ironic. Humans aren't made to do this. Ten thousand dead because one man wanted to drop the bomb.. he ended it all with the touch of the switch, and litterally, we can see lives burn before our eyes.
i think this song is about how we have fucked the world up with pollution and wat not. "the empty streets echo our past and the days that were once so beautiful, before mow, before us" thats my take on it nayway
I think this song is aboout Hitler killing jews "10000 hearts set to silence" Those lives being the jews "By the choice of one" That being hitler And "End it all with a touch of a switch" Hitler flicking the switch for the gas chambers of course.

I think it comes down to one single person (a girl) who completely destroyed the world around her (eg. Pandora, unleashing evil by opening Pandora's box.) "Ten thousand hearts set to silence for the choice of one."
Hmm.. Amazing song. I have a friend named Pandora...
Winston on pandora.. "watch "on the beach" and you'll understand how stupid we as "the smartest creatures on the planet" are."
Break up song imo.
I don't think it was about the polution issue, I think he meant how everything was so beautiful before. Like 'the empty streets echo our past and the days that were once so beautiful'. I thought he was meaning how everything reminds him of her. Well thats my opinion.. Comment back?
Oh also its in my top 3 from Parkway nuts song, love the breakdowns
