The Gate Lyrics

Cover art for The Gate lyrics by Silver End

This song is to do with the futility of guilt and doing wrong. When you have sinned or done someone wrong you feel terrible and feel like you belong in hell. However the people that condemn you are just as guilty if not are even more so, and they judge how you've acted, it doesn't make what you did wrong or right it makes you realise that nobody is perfect and deserving of punishment and judgement as we are all human beings that have done wrong. This is shown in

I've lost my mind Anger takes over Darkness fills the broken heart The simplest logic is breaking apart

This verse talks about the amount of pain and guilt you feel for your action and this happens because people are assholes who judge you

You won't drag me to the Underworld just yet Though it's where I'm from

This talks about how you cannot judge me for my actions as if theyre completely abhorrent but there is an understanding of which is that there is a wrong which has happened so you accept "thats where im from"
