Critters Die
Eternal Dance: Decoding Life's Dark Rhythms
Lyrics
Oh how them days roll by
Reflecting on the passage of time.
That time does fly
Noting the swift passage of time.
When you're living to die
Contemplating a life with a sense of inevitability towards death.
Sleep in to start your day
Starting the day by oversleeping.
Wake up to your decay
Awakening to personal deterioration or decay.
The same old way
Repetition of a mundane or monotonous routine.
Get caught in headlights
Being caught off guard or frozen in a difficult situation.
One wrong step in the Night
Warning about the consequences of a misstep at night.
Oh that's how critters die
Reflecting on the vulnerability of living beings.
You love no one else
Emphasizing self-love and self-preservation.
Compassion for yourself
Stressing the importance of compassion for oneself.
It'll drag you straight to hell
Self-destructive behaviors leading to negative consequences.
And when you get there
Anticipating a negative outcome or consequence.
Oh yes you best beware
Warning about unfair treatment in a challenging situation.
They won't treat you fair
Facing consequences for one's actions.
What you did be damned
Condemnation for past actions or choices.
Your soul they demand
A demand for accountability and consequences for one's soul.
You best take that hand
Suggesting acceptance of help or guidance.
And hey if ya don't
Consequences for rejecting offered help or guidance.
They'll violate your soul
Warning about the violation of the soul for rejecting help.
Oh when Critters die
Reiterating the vulnerability and mortality of living beings.
Time Moves fast but you still hold on
Acknowledging the persistence of time despite personal struggles.
The drinks are spilled but the record's still on
Life's challenges persist despite personal setbacks.
You only listen to yourself your own song
Emphasizing self-absorption or self-centeredness.
Your eyes may glimmer, but your mind will be gone
Warning about the detachment of the mind despite apparent allure.
Now if you meet him
Introduction of a character or entity.
And there's no telling when
Uncertainty about encountering the character or entity.
Don't you lie of your sin
Advising honesty about one's mistakes or wrongdoings.
All shall meet his gaze
Facing judgment or consequences from the introduced character or entity.
Serve as brimstone slaves
Being subject to punishment or servitude.
For the rest of your days.
Long-lasting consequences for past actions or choices.
But if your luck don't seize
Acknowledging the role of luck in avoiding negative consequences.
He'll mark you as the beast
Marking someone as a threat or adversary.
And return you to feast
Returning to a destructive lifestyle or behavior.
His price is torn flesh
The cost or consequence of engaging in destructive actions.
To wreak havoc and death
Causing chaos and death through destructive actions.
Oh maybe you'll be next
Uncertainty about being the next victim of destructive actions.
So if you don't join his side
Choosing a side in a conflict or moral dilemma.
He'll take you for a ride
Consequences for refusing to align with a particular side.
Now, that's how critters die
Reiterating the inevitability of negative consequences for living beings.
