Cannibal Sympathy: Unveiling the Dark Fame Within Playing Enemy's 'Benet'
Lyrics
The masses gather
The masses are assembling.
To take a shot at you
People are aiming criticism or negativity towards you.
With cannibal sympathy
There's a sense of predatory empathy from the crowd.
And cameras loaded
The cameras are ready to capture the unfolding situation.
Look at you
A focus on an individual, referred to as "our little lamb."
Our little lamb...
Addressing the subject as a vulnerable figure.
We can't get you out of our heads
There's a fixation on the individual, unable to forget.
The way you taste
Emphasizing the impact of how the person is experienced, possibly metaphorically.
The way you look like a...
Commenting on the appearance of the person.
So proud of your role
The individual is proud of their assigned role in the situation.
So proud...
Reiteration of pride in the role.
I can't get you out of my heads
Reiterating the persistent thoughts about the person.
The way you taste
Highlighting the sensual and visual aspects of the person.
The way you look like a...
Repeating the observation of the person's appearance.
We'll take you down
A declaration of intent to bring the person down.
And face you forward
Turning the person to face the consequences directly.
Into the lights
Placing the person in the spotlight, possibly a metaphorical representation of public scrutiny.
Now you are a star.
The person is now considered a star, indicating a transformation or elevation in status.
