Our Proof of Life Lyrics

At a certain point it happens
Life becomes too real
And nothing can hold back
What is about to be

I don't know how close we need to get
To blind out the surroundings and focus on the real

I know you're gone
But this reality is crashing down on me
Crashing down to defeat all purpose
I know you're gone
I'm just not ready, I'm just not done
I am ever in resistant disbelief

When raw emotion gets in
The way of our thoughts and words
We pass so far beyond our breaking point

I don't know how far we need to be
From all that we don't want to see
To regain perspective

I know you're gone
But this reality is crashing down on me
Crashing down to defeat all purpose
I know you're gone
I'm just not ready I'm just not done
I am ever in resistant disbelief

I know, yet I fail to find purpose and form
I know, but the truth just makes it harder

I know you're gone
But this reality is crashing down on me
Crashing down to defeat all purpose
I know you're gone
I'm just not ready I'm just not done
I am ever in resistant disbelief

Cover art for Our Proof of Life lyrics by Dark Tranquillity

The song is most likely about a death of a relative or a loved one, and all confusion, suffering and uncertainty that comes from it.

I doubt that it may be about a breakup as the lyrics are too strong: "I am ever in resistant disbelief", "This reality is crashing down on me", etc. Way too dramatic.
