The lyrics of this song talk about a prisoner who awaits his judgment, and alternates his thoughts between hate and hope. Sometimes he fears the future, other times he accepts his fate optimistically. But with all this talk of death and judgment, maybe some people miss the first stanza of the song,...
[Verse 1]
Inside the cage of your mind
Waiting for the day
Just a victim of the guilt
Living in despair
Out on your own in the dark
Sinners meet the saints
Bloody river overflows
You don't really care
Setting on fire
Your own freedom
Played the hardest game
Now you will burn
Your eternal flame
[Verse 2]
Even the brave won't deny
Evil warns again
And your conscience isn't safe
Driving you insane
Playing with fire
Put your freedom
Through the hardest test
Don't blame the scare
On your final day
[Chorus]
One last minute passes by your soul
Just one minute lost in the horizon
You will face the judgement day
(Scream your voice free to the air)
Waiting for the judgement day
[Instrumental Break]
[Interlude]
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
One last minute passes by your soul
Just one minute lost in the horizon
One more minute passes by your eyes
Just one minute lost in the horizon
Then you face the judgement day
(Scream your voice free to the air)
There's no more time to pray
(Sweat in pain you are afraid)
We all face the judgement day
[Outro]
