BRUCE DICKINSON

- Octavia Lyrics

I'm vacuum-breathing and open-mouthed
As the red shift fills my eyes
Minister my promises
As her shadow cuts the day away

I remembered you, as you walked into that room

Dislocated, jagged pieces
Are sliding into this broken mind
Swimming back against the river
But I'm rising with the tide

Where we came from, we're all going back there soon

How many times have we met this way?
How many lives have we lived before?
How many faces and how many names?
Shadows come, but shadows are gone
Shadows come, but shadows are gone

How many times have we met this way?
How many lives have we lived before?
How many faces and how many names?
Shadows come, but shadows are gone
Shadows come, but shadows are gone

The lyrics of Octavia primarily focus on the themes of reflection and existential angst and despair and heartbreak and nostalgic emotions. The song establishes existential reflection as a crucial element which connects to both loss and memory and the battle against destiny. The song lyrics contain three main topics which include memory and loss and existential reflection but present their concepts in a more sophisticated manner that demands advanced comprehension from listeners.
