every time i listen to the song i remember eren. āget freeā is what he always wanted. and so many lines in the song make me think about him
1. āFinally...
I'm crossing the threshold
From the ordinary world
To the reveal of my heartā
the āfinallyā is just so suiting for the end. eren finally gets away from all the shit he did in the world, and he can finally reveal what he intended with it. he doesnāt have to keep it from his friends anymore, he doesnāt have to lie to them.
2. āUndoubtedly...
That will for certain
Take the dead out of the sea
And the darkness from the artsā
what he did saved so many people from the dead. he brought back the ones who turned into titans. there is no more darkness, and so he brought peace
3. āThis is my commitment
My modern manifesto
I'm doing it for all of usā
he really did do it for all of them. he did it all for his friends. the entire plan, manifesto, was for them. what he committed was all for his friends :ā)
4. āFor... and for...
And all my birds of paradise
Who never got to fly at night
'Cause they were caught up in the danceā
this really just speaks for itself. his birds of paradise, his friends. they were caught up in the dance of killing others and each-other. they never got to fly, and be free
5. āSometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind
I want to get off, but I keep riding the ride
I never really noticed that I had to decide
To play someone's game, or live my own lifeā
eren was in a war with himself. he knew everything before anyone else, he knew who he was going to kill and he knew he couldnāt do anything about it. then he had to play along with zeke and yelenaās game for the sake of others safety
7. āAnd you, as we found out
Were not in your right mindā
this describes how people would blame him and hate him. until they found out he just wasnāt doing okay. he was overwhelmed. and in the end, everything he did was for them
To the boy who sought freedom...
