Lyrics
Be it a song on the wind or a whisper through the woods,
Reference to mysterious or subtle influences, whether in nature or unseen.
I leave my house under starlight, trembling to the world.
Leaving the safety of home in the night, embracing vulnerability.
Shore up your defences, guard against your foes,
Advising to strengthen defenses against potential adversaries.
There's black art in the night fall, silver upon your throat.
Suggesting mystical elements in the night with potential danger.
And something's taking over me
Expressing a feeling of being overtaken by something powerful.
For all the world to see.
The acknowledgment of this internal struggle or change being visible to others.
I got a hunger I can't feed.
An unfulfilled desire or need causing emotional unrest.
There's a devil at work in me.
Suggesting a malevolent force or influence within the speaker.
(Oh Lord I never wanted
The speaker expressing a lack of desire for the negative qualities within.
This black heart,
Reference to inner darkness or negativity.
A tainted bloodline to night trails,
Indication of a corrupted family history or lineage.
The cruellest moon at work in me)
Describing the impact of a harsh, unforgiving moon on the speaker.
The forces that act upon me cause me to engage.
External forces compelling the speaker to take action.
I take no comfort from the catch, no pleasure in the chase.
No satisfaction gained from pursuit, perhaps suggesting internal conflict.
This lifeblood, this lifeblood coursing through my veins.
The essence of life coursing through the speaker's veins.
Free from the code of man, I am his world unmade.
Embracing a life free from societal norms, becoming a world unmade.
And something's taking over me
Reiteration of the overwhelming feeling taking control.
For all the world to see
Recognition that the internal struggle is evident to the external world.
I got a hunger I can't feed.
Reiteration of an insatiable hunger or desire.
There's a devil at work in me.
Confirmation of a malevolent force actively influencing the speaker.
(Oh Lord I never wanted
Reiteration of not desiring the negative qualities within.
This black heart,
Re-emphasis on inner darkness or negativity.
A tainted bloodline to night trails,
Reiteration of a corrupted family history or lineage.
The cruellest moon at work in me).
Reiteration of the impact of a harsh, unforgiving moon on the speaker.
