Worum geht es in dem Song?

"The Crimson" von Atreyu ist ein sehr emotionaler Songtext, der von einem inneren Kampf und der Veränderung handelt. Der...

I feel it welling up inside
And Robert Smith lied,
Boys do cry and with
Blood tears in my eyes
I'm and Anne Rice novel come to life,
I can't hide the monster anymore
One can only feel desolate
For so long until
One starts to change in something the mirror doesn't recognize,
I metamorphosize,
The darkness has been biding it's time
To claim it's latest victim,
Fresh meat for carnal desires,
To become what I became,
I viewed the sun for the last time.

CHORUS:
Will you still hold me when you see what I have done?
Will you still kiss me the same
When you taste my victims blood?
So crimson and red
I feel it flowing from your lips,
(Crimson and red)
My heart is dead and so are you.

And it pulses through,
The desire to change, to deconstruct
All of my past failings,
But where to begin
Because when you live in sin
It's hard to look at saints
Without them reflecting
Their jet black auras back on you.
And all I have is hope,
My inner burn's not fading,
I'll wipe the blood
From my cheek
And get on with my day.

CHORUS

And all I have is hope,
And all I need is time,
To bury in pine under six feet of time
The lies I told me about myself,
Claw my way out
Pick the splinters from under my fingernails, I won't lose hope,
I won't give in.

Just live and breath
Try not to die again. [3x]
I try not to die again

CHORUS

Will you still hold me when you'll see what I have done?
Will you still kiss me the same,
When you taste my victim's blood?
So crimson and red,
I feel it flowing from your lips.
(When you taste my victim's blood)
My heart is dead and so are you.
