They
Resisting the Billion: A Battle for Control in Combichrist's 'They'
Lyrics
They wanna own you
There are individuals or entities aiming to possess/control you.
And their screams are like thunder
Their demands or expressions are forceful and overwhelming.
You are losing your mind
You're experiencing a loss of sanity.
And it makes you sick a sickened soul
This loss affects your soul, making you feel ill.
And your world is going under
Your world or life is collapsing.
Like you never existed in this world at all
You feel like you're disappearing or never really belonged.
They wish, they want
They have desires and intentions.
They will and never quit
They persist in their pursuits without giving up.
They wish, they will they wish
Their desires and actions continue.
They want, they will they they want it all
They relentlessly seek to have everything.
They they got it all they a billion strong
They have amassed immense power and resources.
Will destroy us all make us crawl
Their massive influence threatens to obliterate humanity.
They they want it all they they got it all
They have achieved their goals and control everything.
They a billion strong will destroy us all
Their vast numbers pose a catastrophic danger to society.
Make us crawl
They enforce submission or degradation upon us.
The only way to stop it
The solution to halt this is by reducing our ambitions.
Is to limit our desires
To regain control, it's necessary to remove our influence.
To strip us from power regain control
The speaker believes the listener can't comprehend their experience.
You've never been me
A statement highlighting the speaker's individuality.
So you'll never understand me
Their experiences are beyond others' understanding.
I'd never been close enough to take the fall
The speaker hasn't been close enough to suffer consequences.
Do you fear? Do you feel?
Asking if there's a sense of fear or emotional response.
Do you fear? Do you feel?
Reiteration of the previous question.
Do you fear me? Can you hear me?
Asking if the listener perceives or acknowledges the speaker's presence.
Hiding in the shadow of the life they stole
Suggesting the speaker is hidden due to their stolen life.
They they want it all they they got it all
Reiteration of their desire for complete control.
They a billion strong will destroy us all
Reaffirmation of their overwhelming strength and threat.
Make us crawl
They enforce subjugation or humiliation upon humanity.
They they want it all they they got it all
Reiteration of their desire for absolute power.
They a billion strong will destroy us all
Reassertion of their massive force capable of destroying all.
Make us crawl
They compel us to submit or degrade ourselves.
