Edge of the Earth Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Deldren 

Cover art for Edge of the Earth lyrics by Volumes

It's about aliens. He talks about hearing the lights touch the ground. Which is the ships landing. He sits in the desert (Area 51) waiting for them to land. He knew he could not be drugged, meaning he knew what he was seeing was real and not because he was high. The silhouette in the light was an alien coming out of the ship. The last verse of him walking away is him leaving with them and he starts understanding the gravity of his choice as he leaves the atmosphere and becomes weightless. That's all the secret he has become and he can't find a way out of knowing it.

Song Meaning

I was thinking the same thing so I'm glad you posted this!

Great interpretation!

@Deldren Yeah but in the chorus he says he's "underneath the influence" implying he is indeed high on something.
