ok... the title of this song and the repetedness of the words "i desire the end" really are not what the song is about... i ronicly. nobody really desires the end. it is only the last words of the song that make it complete and contain the whole meaning to the song... i desire the new begining....................... we all want christ to come...

'rock on' is right... this song is pretty self-explanatory, but it's awesome... it's a pure desire to see the end of this corrupt world and the coming of Christ and the new and perfect life we will recieve though him... one part also says "i desire the absence of death" which is a very strong message

has anyone ever noticed that the piano riff at the end of violet sounds a lot like the main guitar riff of desire the end?

x777nerdx, I truly desire the end. I believe in God, but I really cant wait till all humans on this earch are exterminated. Whether it be by God, Nature, Zombies, Aliens, etc etc... We have destroyed this earth long enough with our sinful ways (including the destruction of the enviroment, the partaking of ANIMAL and human suffering). I desire not only the end, but if their is a new beginning, there must be no free will so we can all live innocent.

yes, and a good one. When i finally got to actually learn and understand everything that Zao speaks, and shouts out this song seemed extremely expressive. Its so awesome, its like he pours his heart and soul into doing this song. Means alot because every time i listen to it, it reminds me how much this world is messed up and how it needs fixed.
