My Destiny

Crom's song 'My Destiny' delves deep into the themes of love, loss, and the elusive nature of destiny. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love that once seemed fated but ultimately led to heartbreak and disillusionment. The opening lines, 'Be my star, light the way / For we are oh so far apart / But I'm sure we'll meet one day,' set the stage for a tale of longing and hope. The protagonist believes in a destined reunion, driven by the wind that 'calls our names,' symbolizing the forces of fate that seem to guide their paths.

As the song progresses, the concept of destiny is questioned and ultimately shattered. The lines 'The path of destiny / Path of eternal lies?' and 'The word called destiny / Is it, or is it not?' reflect the protagonist's growing doubt and realization that what they believed to be destiny was merely an illusion. This disillusionment is further emphasized by the sorrowful admission, 'The truth I cannot see / Sorrow fills my eyes / I realize my thoughts were false / Destiny nought but lies.' The protagonist's journey from hope to despair is marked by a profound sense of loss and the recognition that their dreams were empty.

The recurring theme of death in the lyrics, 'Now I will find my way to die / My eyes will close no more return,' underscores the depth of the protagonist's despair. The memories of the 'unique moments we shared' are 'forever lost in time,' yet they cling to the memory, acknowledging that 'the memory will remain / You always will be mine.' This juxtaposition of holding onto memories while grappling with the pain of loss highlights the complexity of human emotions when faced with the harsh reality of unfulfilled destiny. The song concludes with a poignant plea, 'Oh, God, let me fly,' expressing a desire for release from the torment of broken dreams and a yearning for peace.
