"End Of Time" by Italy's Lacuna Coil tells quite an interesting story.
Visualize if you will a couple, that's a given, who are in the prime of their relationship.
A young man in his late 20's experiences a most uncanny passage of time marked by a physical change to his body: sadly, his first grey hair. When he sees the top of his head the mirror he's aware that this abnormality was inevitable: he's aging as a result of sleep loss and stress from the moment his lover left him. Realizing he will have to adjust to his appearance makes him more withdrawn. He feels cursed to have no friends or family. He is utterly alone.
So he packs his bags and he is about to board a plane. He never saw the countryside. The only way for his broken heart to heal is to see the beauty of the land and the stars in the sky, leaving behind a corrupt, cold society which included his former girlfriend whose memory haunts him forever. When all he knew was loneliness a miracle happened...
Even after some great turbulence where they separated for a while, the boyfriend pulled through for her. He went on a journey and eventually his lady fell back into his arms. What the lyrics from this song are saying:
(Ferro) I Understand you now and why you weren't there for me all these years (too many)
The girlfriend joins in to say that her feelings for him never changed. She knows she's forgiven for what's she's done.
His lover is 10 yrs older than him and for the first time he's come to realize the epihany of their relationship. After she left the younger women he encountered were what he maybe wanted all along but his instinct told him that none of them could hold a candle to his sweetheart who was old enough to be a Mother and raise a family, which is what he's always wanted.
When the two lovers are reunited they both have grey hair now. They endured. The boyfriend becomes a husband. She, his Wife for all time. This song is a reminder of their vows to each other.
Two miracles took place: Began with her saying "I'm coming home again." (for good)
And most of all she channeled him. as if to say I was with you when you felt like letting go (ending your life) but you endured because I'm part of you. When you were in hell my love protected you when you wanted to self-destruct.
You belong to me dear, if you wanted to go and kill yourself (god forbid) you need my permission!
Dude, you're a moron. I hate when people do this, when they put things that aren't in the songs there.

Didn't they teach you anything in school? That's not how you're supposed to interpret literature. I learned this in fricking high school, English 4 AP, that you can't place things into the story that the author didn't put in there. You can only go on what was actually written.

Your dumb post places things like the age of the speaker, that there's a couple, and people being reunited - all of which are not mentioned in the song.

There's no given...
There's no given about any of it, you idiot. First off, just because two people are singing doesn't mean that the song's lyrics actually has two speakers. It could be only one speaker. It's not evident in the lyrics that two people are talking.
Also, even if there are two speakers, it doesn't mean that they're lovers. It could be that one of the speakers is the child of the other. Especially with the part where it says, "As I belong to you, my flesh and blood in you."
