Evil in Me
Rising Shadows: Unveiling the Dark Symphony Within
Lyrics
Evil In Me
Introduction to the theme of inner darkness or malevolence.
My roots are rising up, there is a full moon up above
Feeling a surge of primal instincts; reference to a powerful celestial event.
The forest howls, here come the hounds
The environment responds to the inner turmoil; ominous presence of danger.
Sky burns acid rain
Nature reflects a destructive force; metaphorical burning of the sky.
I'm shaking in my grave
Intense fear or anxiety, possibly in the face of impending doom.
The forest pulls me 6 feet down
The symbolic pull of negativity, possibly death, dragging the speaker down.
Under the ground
A metaphorical descent into a dark and unsettling place beneath the surface.
We're rising up
Repetition emphasizes a collective rising, possibly a rebellion or empowerment.
We're rising up
-We're rising up
-You better walk the plank
Warning or challenge to face consequences; walking the plank as a metaphor for danger.
You gotta walk the plank
-It's been a long time
Repetition of "It's been a long time" suggests a prolonged struggle or suffering.
Heartache and the rage
-It's been a long time
-The evil in me pains
-It's been a long time
-It's been a long while
-It's been a long time
-It's been a long long while
-The earth rattles my bones, tonight I'm comin' home
Symbolic journey home through the night, connecting with the afterlife; a mysterious realm.
My carriage rides me through the night, I'm comin' home
-Bring me back to the depths of the beyond
-Where the dead don't die
-And the living can't hear our song
-We're rising up
Repetition reinforces the theme of rising; walking the plank as a recurring danger.
We're rising up
-We're rising up
-You better walk the plank
-You gotta walk the plank
-It's been a long time
Repetition of the prolonged struggle; a desire for intense experiences and the pain within.
I need to feel those flames
-It's been a long time
-The evil in me pains
-It's been a long time
-It's been a long while
-It' been a long time
-It's been a long long while
-We're rising up
Final repetition of rising, walking the plank; a persistent and ominous warning.
We're rising up
-We're rising up
-You better walk the plank
-You gotta walk the plank
-IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME!
Intense emphasis on the prolonged nature of the struggle, potentially indicating resilience.
