1890
Echoes of Oppression: Doktor Inferno's 1890 Unveils the Chains of History
Lyrics
Once
Expressing a point in time
In the old world
Referring to a historical period
Men and women
Referring to both genders
Were burned and hanged
Describing past atrocities of burning and hanging
In the name of God
Highlighting religious pretext for violence
By the lords of faith
Attributing the actions to religious leaders
In the new world
Transitioning to a different era
Men and women
Continuing the theme of oppression
Remain slaves
Portraying modern individuals as slaves
As if it were fallen leaves
Metaphorically comparing individuals to fallen leaves
By the money lords
Pointing to economic control
For the sake
Referring to the pursuit of wealth
Of enrichment
Indicating the motive behind actions
Don't you know baby
Addressing someone affectionately
I also know
Affirming personal awareness
That nothing
Contemplating the impermanence of things
Is forever
Stressing the transient nature of existence
But it looks like
Drawing a comparison with a dark entity
A black angel
Introducing a symbol of darkness and mystery
Descended to earth
Suggesting a supernatural presence on Earth
To haunt us
Implying a haunting or troubling influence
Is there no complacency among men?
Pondering the absence of contentment among people
Is the look of truth
Questioning the authenticity of truth's appearance
The terror that hangs over us?
Suggesting a pervasive sense of fear
Don't you know what slavery is?
Prompting awareness of the concept of slavery
Or will it be a world of fiction for you
Challenging the perception of reality
Don't you know
Asserting the challenges of life
Life is not easy
Highlighting the difficulties of existence
Don't you know
Reiterating the hardships of life
No need for great wisdom
Emphasizing simplicity over profound knowledge
Don't you know baby
Repeating the affectionate address and previous themes
