this song is pretty easy to interpret.

"You�ll never be alone again You�ll never die again You�ll never be born again You�ll forever be, stuck here in eternity"

so basically, youre born, and you die. and thats it.

"I bid you welcome to my world They call me existence You have just entered through the gate to your journey towards eternity"

so right here, its talking through the perspective of existence, using personification. in this part, exisence is welcoming you, as if you were just born.

"This part i control

In the beginning you�ll fear nothing As I climb beside you Time will be your master in this laborious part of human subsistence"

in the beginning, youll fear nothing. when youre a kid, you dont really think about death, as it seems unreal, and when youre young, you kind of have this sense that youre invincible, because death seems so far off and distant. time is all of our masters, because once our time is up, we're gone.

"This part i control

Black clouds embraces your soul Slowly passing through repeating lacunas of anguish When time takes your life I will transfer you into the bare grip of thinking tranquility Voices frilling the emptiness of the dead floating Seamless across the surface into chilling stillness Nothing can help you now"

black clouds and repeating lacunas of anguish refer to the pain and suffering we will become accustomed to as we get older. when time takes our lives, it will transfer us into the bare grip of thinking tranquility, or non existence, as that is the only way to achieve true tranquility, because the dead cant feel pain, anxiety, etc. the chilling stillness describes the person when he/she is dead, still.
