Sinner's Blues
Embracing Demons: The Sinner's Struggle
Lyrics
I'm in chains every day
I feel constrained and burdened every day.
My soul's full of demons and it's driving me insane
My inner self is troubled by demons, causing me mental distress.
I'm in chains
Emphasizes the feeling of being trapped or confined.
I can't escape this fate
I'm unable to avoid or change my destined path.
The preacher man tells me that I'm too late
A religious figure suggests that it's too late for redemption.
Can't escape
Reiterates the inability to break free from a negative outcome.
No angels calling my name no
No divine beings are offering salvation or guidance.
They tossed me into the flames
Metaphorically thrown into a difficult or painful situation.
I can't see the light
Feeling lost and unable to find a positive way forward.
I can feel the devil's got his hold on me
A sense of being under the influence or control of evil forces.
I can't see
Unable to perceive a positive outcome or solution.
Because I fell from grace
Expresses a fall from a state of grace or favor.
I can hear the howling of the hounds of hell
Hearing the ominous signs of impending doom or punishment.
Because I fell
Further emphasizing the descent from a favorable state.
No angels calling my name no
Repetition of the absence of divine intervention or help.
They tossed me into the flames
Reiterating a harsh fate or punishment.
They're bringing in the town
The community is reacting negatively or judgmentally.
No savior to be found
No one is there to provide rescue or assistance.
They've opened up the ground
A metaphorical description of a grave situation.
Oh no no no
An expression of despair or realization of a dire circumstance.
And I'm going down
The speaker is succumbing to a negative fate.
There's nothing more I can do no
An acknowledgment of helplessness in the face of adversity.
I've got the sinner's blues
The speaker is experiencing the emotional weight of guilt or remorse.
Oh oh oh
A vocalization of the emotional distress and sorrow being felt.
