Rattlesnake
Bitten by Deceit: Unmasking Truth in 'Rattlesnake'
Lyrics
I can't feel my face
Loss of sensory perception or numbness, unable to perceive emotions or expressions.
I can't feel my soul
A deeper sense of disconnection or emptiness, a feeling of losing oneself.
I can't feel the things that make me whole
Unable to connect with essential or defining aspects of oneself.
I scratched my knees
Physical injury, possibly symbolic of a setback or failure.
After the fall
Metaphorical representation of a downfall or failure in life.
No strength to walk
Lack of strength to move forward, feeling incapacitated.
But I can crawl
Despite challenges, still able to make slow progress.
I'm spitting blood
Suffering and experiencing consequences, potentially self-inflicted.
In the sink hole
A metaphorical pit of despair or difficulty.
I took a hit but i'm in control
Enduring hardships but still feeling in command or managing the situation.
I scratched my knees
Repetition of a physical injury, suggesting a repeated setback.
After the fall
Similar to line 5, facing a setback or failure.
No strength to walk
Comparable to line 6, feeling incapable of progressing normally.
But I can crawl
Despite limitations, still able to make slow progress.
Everything I thought was true was fake
Realization that previously held beliefs or truths were deceptive or false.
Bit me like a fucking rattlesnake
A sudden, unexpected betrayal or hurt similar to a snake's venomous bite.
Now the venom's running through my veins
Metaphor for the spreading and affecting nature of deceit or betrayal.
Through my veins
Reinforcing the impact of the deception or betrayal on the individual.
Everything I thought was true was fake
Reiteration of the shock and realization of falsehoods in one's beliefs or perceptions.
