Discover the story of the song > Death of an Electric Citizen – Edgar Broughton Band

The protagonist is describing witnessing the cycle of water, from a raindrop falling, to a stream and then a river, until it reaches the sea. The sky is described as never-ending, and the aurora borealis is mentioned as something that chills the protagonist to the bone. They feel a sense of urgency and a desire to escape but also describe a warm maiden with green eyes who offers them heaven if they try. The lyrics also mention a bad man's sins and the destruction of a city. Overall, the lyrics seem to convey a sense of wonder, the passage of time, and the possibility of escape or redemption.
