Immortals Lyrics

They say we are what we are
But we don't have to be
On bad behavior, but I do it in the best way
I'll be the watcher (watcher) of the eternal flame
I'll be the guard dog of all your fever dreams

(Ooh)
I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass glass, glass
(Ooh)
I try to picture me without you but I can't

'Cause we could be immortals, immortals
Just not for long, for long
And live with me forever now
Pull the blackout curtains down
Just not for long, for long,
We could be immor-immortals
Immor-immortals
Immor-immortals
Immor-immortals

(Immortals)

Sometimes the only pay off for having any faith
Is when it's tested again and again every day
I'm still comparing your past to my future
It might be your wound, but they're my sutures

(Ooh)
I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (glass, glass)
(Ooh)
I try to picture me without you, but I can't

'Cause we could be immortals, immortals
Just not for long, for long
And live with me forever now
Pull the blackout curtains down
Just not for long, for long
We could be immor-immortals
Immor-immortals

(Immortals)
And live with me forever now
Pull the blackout curtains down

We could be immortals, immortals
Just not for long, for long
We could be immor-immortals
Immor-immortals
Immor-immortals
Immor-immortals
(Immortals)

What is the Meaning of Immortals?

Exploring themes of legacy, resilience, and the fleeting nature of existence, this song captures the tension between mortality and the desire for lasting significance. The lyrics suggest that while we are shaped by our actions and past experiences, we possess the agency to redefine ourselves. The metaphor of being "the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass" emphasizes the inevitable passage of time, yet it also underscores a sense of urgency to make meaningful connections. The recurring notion of "immortals" symbolizes an aspiration to create enduring memories and impacts, even if they are temporary. Ultimately, the song encourages embracing moments with intensity and purpose, as these fleeting experiences contribute to a sense of immortality in our shared human journey.
