Seven Nation Army
Defiant Struggle: Unveiling the Message Behind 'Seven Nation Army'
Lyrics
I'm gonna fight 'em all
I am determined to confront and overcome all challenges or adversaries.
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
Even a powerful force represented by a seven-nation army cannot hinder my progress.
They're gonna rip it off
They will attempt to take something away from me.
Taking their time right behind my back
They are observing and plotting against me from a distance.
And I'm talking to myself at night
I engage in internal dialogue, possibly grappling with memories or thoughts.
Because I can't forget
I am haunted by something I cannot forget.
Back and forth through my mind
Thoughts are constantly circulating in my mind.
Behind a cigarette
Hidden behind a cigarette, possibly symbolizing a barrier or disguise.
And the message coming from my eyes
My eyes convey a message that suggests leaving a situation untouched or undisturbed.
Says leave it alone
The internal message advises not to intervene or get involved.
Don't want to hear about it
I do not want to hear discussions or details about it.
Every single one's got a story to tell
Every individual has a unique and significant story.
Everyone knows about it
This information is widely known or acknowledged.
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
From influential figures like the Queen of England to the most evil entities.
And if I catch it coming back my way
If the issue returns to me, I will confront and address it.
I'm gonna serve it to you
I will serve the issue or problem back to those who brought it.
And that ain't what you want to hear
Even though it may not be pleasant to hear or accept.
But that's what I'll do
I am resolved to take that course of action.
And the feeling coming from my bones
Instincts or inner feelings guide me to find a place of belonging.
Says find a home
The internal sense insists on establishing a home or a stable environment.
I'm going to Wichita
I am heading to Wichita, possibly seeking escape or distance.
Far from this opera for evermore
Away from this ongoing drama or chaos for good.
I'm gonna work the straw
I will engage in hard work, represented by working with straw.
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
Putting in effort and labor to the point of perspiration.
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
I am experiencing intense emotional pain or hardship.
Right before the lord
This suffering is acknowledged or witnessed by a higher power, "the lord."
All the words are gonna bleed from me
All my thoughts and emotions will be expressed and laid bare.
And I will sing no more
I will cease singing or expressing myself further.
And the stains coming from my blood
The evidence or consequences of my struggles urge me to return home.
Tell me go back home
An imperative directive to go back to one's origin or place of comfort.
