Cover art for Elysium Dream lyrics by Into Eternity

An Elysium is a greek heaven. Though one is shrouded in despair, a dream may become more to you than reality, however, whence that dream is discovered to be false, it is only despair waiting for you.

Because of all that has happened to him, he feels that he no longer has a point for continuing his life. He feels cold because his dreams were false, the silence is deafening because there is no one left for him.

"The Blackness helps to forget" -Often times one can find solitude in the darkness. A calm sort of serene atmosphere is almost more than always better suited than one with much light.

"The Sweet aroma of death" -To be dead would be a better turn for me, because I am empty inside, I once was left with a dream of better things, but this dream is simply a dream.

& as for the last stanza, reiterating the first... "We've fucked up, my feelings are dead." That dream, of someone waiting for him, the one that is false, is false because something happened in their relationship that created a barrier between them. His feelings are dead because he no longer can return them because of this barrier he faces...

It is the loss of will power. The defeat of his own self confidence. His ability to depict between what is real & what is false, believes him to be worthy of the ultimate sentence: Death.
