The Undead
Beware the Seductive Deception
Lyrics
He's a charmer, a disarmer
Describing someone charming and disarming, possibly with supernatural abilities
A warlock casting magic spells
Comparing the person to a warlock who casts spells
He's nocturnal, he's infernal
Characterizing the person as nocturnal and infernal (hellish)
Sexy devil come straight from hell
Referring to the person as a seductive devil figure
Pure seduction, the wolf is on the hunt
Describing the allure and pursuit of the person, likened to a wolf hunting
A predator that won't be tamed
Portraying the person as a wild and untamable predator
He'll unmake you, try and break you
Indicating the person's capacity to cause destruction and attempt to break others
'Cause he feeds upon a woman's pain
Suggesting the person thrives on causing pain to women
He had me hypnotized but he was dead inside
Expressing that the person had a captivating effect despite being emotionally dead
He could light up a room with that painted-on smile
Highlighting the person's ability to fake happiness or positivity
A heart of stone rolling around in his chest
Metaphorically describing the person's lack of emotional warmth (a heart of stone)
I thought that pounding meant he loved me best
Believing that the person's coldness was a sign of intense love
Looks like the living to the untrained eye
Observing that outwardly, the person appeared alive, but internally, they were deceitful
But everything about that boy was just a lie
Stating that everything about the person was false
A creature of the night with a lust for blood
Depicting the person as a creature of the night with a desire for blood
That I mistook for love
Realizing that what was mistaken for love was actually a dangerous desire
There are those who walk among you
Referring to others who resemble the described person, hiding their true nature
They'll hide themselves in plain sight
Emphasizing their ability to blend in without clear evidence of their intentions
They'll confuse you, you'll have no proof
Expressing the confusion caused by these individuals and the lack of concrete proof
Just a feeling something isn't right
Suggesting an intuition or feeling that something is amiss
When that feeling comes girl, better run girl,
Advising to trust one's instincts and take action when feeling uneasy
Trust yourself and trust your gut
Encouraging self-reliance and intuition in protecting oneself
Protect your neck from the undead
Using a metaphor ("protect your neck") to caution against danger from deceptive individuals
The monsters trying to eat you up
Highlighting the threat posed by these metaphorical monsters
He had me hypnotized but he was dead inside
Reiteration of the previous experiences with the described individual, emphasizing the mistake made in perceiving love
He could light up a room with that painted-on smile
-A heart of stone rolling around in his chest
-I thought that pounding meant he loved me best
-Looks like the living to the untrained eye
-But everything about that boy was just a lie
-A creature of the night with a lust for blood
-That I mistook for love
-My mistake, my mistake
Repetition and emphasis on the realization of the mistake made in giving one's heart to the deceptive person
I gave him my heart but he just wanted a drink from my veins
-My mistake, I gave him my heart
-My mistake, my mistake
-I gave him my heart but he just wanted a drink from my veins
-My mistake, my mistake
-He had me hypnotized but he was dead inside
-He could light up a room with that painted-on smile
-A heart of stone rolling around in his chest
-I thought that pounding meant he loved me best
-Looks like the living to the untrained eye
-But everything about that boy was just a lie
-A creature of the night with a lust for blood
Reiterating the person's nature as a creature of the night with dangerous desires
That I mistook for love
Acknowledging the misinterpretation of dangerous desires as love
