You're thinking down for Judgement Day
What took to the skies, what took you away?
Tears run fast, and so did blood
But nothing can break through your eyes, break through your eyes
We're always close, but are we ever there?
What came from the skies to take you away
Our children grew, left us behind
But no-one should pay such a price
Just another day and it's all the same
In this world of the next
You bring me down and I resurrect
In this world of the next
Watch the storm, its eye above
Watch our world die...
What took to the skies, what took you away?
Tears run fast, and so did blood
But nothing can break through your eyes, break through your eyes
What came from the skies to take you away
Our children grew, left us behind
But no-one should pay such a price
In this world of the next
You bring me down and I resurrect
In this world of the next
Watch our world die...
I think this song is about losing someone close to you either do to suicide, war or a chronic illness. The aftermath of it all, the sadness and misery that's left in that persons wake. The song also talks about resurrection and that there maybe other worlds that the person (who lost this someone very close to them) may find themselves face to face with this loved one again (in this world or the next) as the lyrics state.
