The Last Amazing Grays Lyrics - Sonata Arctica



Review The Song (1)





The mystery of death before us.
Soon every night can bring the light,
And close my eyes...
Sometimes life in here's too limiting.
Sometimes we don't care at all.
Sometimes...

Time will change the familiar face.
Brightest colors fade to gray.
The fear is real, one winter's day
Brings the clarity.

I feel that time is catching up with us.
How many days until its hunger is satisfied?
Living the final golden days.
We are the last amazing grays,
Hoping the young will lead the pack now.

I can feel my heart is beating, still.
I can see you with my eyes.
I still see...
But I can't run the way my children can,
Can't accept the helping hand.
Leave me...

You are the strong one, trust in me.
You must lead instead of me, now.
There's no time, don't hesitate,
Or you will also find your fate.

I feel that time is catching up with us.
How many days until its hunger is satisfied?
Living the final golden days.
We are the last amazing grays,
Hoping the young will lead the pack now.

In the eyes of every newborn, I see the future.
Life is just a phase.
I close my eyes and see them all here beside me,
The last amazing grays.

In the eyes of every newborn, I see the past times.
A familiar face...
I close my eyes and see them, waiting for me,
Amongst the amazing grays.

Mountain sings to me for this last time, marking the moment.
I have found my place...
I closed my eyes and joined them, guarding the young,
Amongst the amazing grays.

My thoughts | Reviewer: Lucas T. | 1/22/13

I think the story this song is trying to tell is that of a man who is getting older but doesn't feel vulnerable to time yet, but is slowly noticing his loved ones faces begin to change due to ageing. Then one night he suffers from a heart attack and lives. Upon awakening in the hospital he realizes his time is now limited and tells his son to follow his dreams before reaching this point. Now in a nursing home he is now watching all his friends dying around him as time passes. The most saddening death being the death of his wife. Now alone all he can do is think about why time hasn't gotten him yet take all his friends and wife. When his children visit they now have children of their own, and when he looks in the faces he see's not his friends or wife but rather his own face when he was young and happy and thought time would never affect him and missed out on living his own dreams. One night after such a visit while lying in bed the man dreams of all his friends and wife waiting for him, he dies in his sleep of another heart attack and joins them.
