The Deeper Sea of Darker Deaths

The Deeper Sea of Darker Deaths

I thought about those words you said

Sent them to the mourning dead

The morning past, the sun has set

And brought us now a lethal debt

Pay it up or give your hand

Bury you beneath the sand

Send the waves over your head

Put you with the mourning dead

The deeper sea of darker deaths

Of darker hate take deeper breaths

You’ll need them soon just wait and see

Die a death and be not free

Your heart will stop and set you free

Send you deep within the sea

The deeper sea of darker deaths

Of darker hate take deeper breaths

I like this very much. There's just one thing that kinda confuses me, " die a death and be not free, your heart will stop and set you free" ? It kinda contradicts it's self. Was it intended to do so?

Yes. It is basically saying that, in essence, you die and you are released from "captivity", only to be sent somewhere worse.

I see what your saying and I can dig it! But what about heaven? Must be pretty bad there too, huh.

Death in this case doesn't necessarily have to be literal. Could be you want something, but the way you get it happens to destroy you. Does that make sense?
