Queen Anne's Revenge
Confronting Inner Demons: "Queen Anne's Revenge" Meaning Unveiled
Lyrics
You can't see the demons
You cannot perceive the negative forces
Till the demons come calling for you
Until those forces come looking for you
You're deaf to them screaming
You are oblivious to their cries
Till they're standing right behind you
Until they are right behind you
Blind to flames glowing
Unaware of danger until it surrounds you
Till thy're growing all around you
When the threats are proliferating around you
Numb to fangs gripping
Insensitive to harm until it violently affects you
Until they're ripping into you
At the point when they are tearing into you
You're miles from safe harbor
Distant from safety, facing imminent danger
Run, run, run, run, run away
Urgent plea to escape from the impending threat
The fire has reached starboard
The danger has reached the right side of the ship
On the Queen Anne's Revenge
Referring to a ship, indicating a perilous situation
Skull and bones and a serpent's head
Symbols of danger and chaos on the ship
Are dancing with the madmen
Chaotic revelry on the ship with insanity
On the Queen Anne's Revenge
Reiteration of the dangerous situation on the ship
Have a gargle with your demons and me
Invitation to confront personal demons
Walked the plank of SS Seasick
Forced to face the consequences of one's actions
Survived to only continue the curse
Survived but cursed to continue suffering
Marooned on a small sandy island
Isolated on an uninhabited island
With neither bird, beast nor herb
Devoid of life forms and resources
Drums started beating
Signaling the commencement of trouble
None there but the sun and the flu
No one around except the harsh elements
An the horns of the demon
The threatening presence of evil
No time to decide what to do
No time to make decisions in the face of danger
You have to do things your own way
Emphasis on individuality and personal choices
Run, run, run, run, run away
Reiteration of the need to escape
You'll have to find out the hard way
Learning through difficult experiences
On the Queen Anne's Revenge
Repeating the perilous situation on the ship
Skull and bones and a serpent's head
Symbolic elements representing danger
Are dancing with the madmen
Madness and chaos persist on the ship
On the Queen Anne's Revenge
Restating the dangerous scenario
Have a gargle with your demons and me
Encouragement to confront inner demons
Drums started beating
Repetition of the trouble beginning
None there but the sun and the flu
Isolation with only harsh elements present
You can't see the demons
Echoing the theme of unseen threats
Until the demons come calling for you
Reiterating the arrival of unseen danger
On the Queen Anne's Revenge
Reiteration of the dangerous ship situation
Skull and bones and a serpent's head
Symbolic elements depicting peril
Are dancing with the madmen
Continuation of chaotic revelry on the ship
On the Queen Anne's Revenge
Emphasizing the ongoing threat on the ship
Have a gargle with your demons and me
Encouragement to confront personal demons
