somebody please tell me why and shes gone lyrics

What causes this destruction? “Your lips, my lips, apocalypse”. The song starts out with this destructive, apocalyptic scene of crumbling bridges, city scapes turning to dust, and helicopters falling from the sky. We’ll see that both basic meanings (revelation and final destruction are likely implied).

This English meaning is due to the connection of these themes in book of Revelation (“Apocalypse” in Greek). But in English it normally refers to prophetic, eschatological destruction of the earth associated with Christ’s return. The Greek meaning of Apocalypse is “revelation” or literally to uncover something hidden. It’s a beautiful song, but the lyrics are quite troubling as implied in the title. When you're feeling low, I will be there, too Ooh-oh, when you're all alone, I will reach for you Sleeping soundly with the locket that she gave you clutched in your fist Sharing all your secrets with each other since you were kids

Go and sneak us through the rivers, flood is rising up on your knees, oh pleaseĬome out and haunt me, I know you want me You've been hiding them in hollowed out pianos left in the dark Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers wrapped in your arms You've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye You leapt from crumbling bridges watching cityscapes turn to dustįilming helicopters crashing in the ocean from way above
