Alison Hell
Annihilator Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Alice aren't you scared
Alice isn't is wonderful
Living life afraid
Don't look around the corner
I might be lurking there
Under the bed at night
You're up till dawn again
Alison hell, your mind begins to fold
Alison hell, aren't you growing cold
Alison hell, you are looking blue
Alice in hell, what else can you do
Alice
I begin my rule, life hideous in your mind
Crying out, you've lost your doll
It isn't worth a dime
Alison hell, your mind begins to fold
Alison hell, aren't you growing cold
Alison hell, what are you looking for
Alice in hell, soon I close the door
Sitting in the corner, you are naked and alone
No one listened to your fears, you've created me
Alice isn't frightening
Alice aren't you scared
I was killed at birth
I shoot this final scene
You're in the basement
You're trapped insanity
Alison hell, what were you looking for
Alison hell, as I close the door
Alison hell, here you shall dwell
Alison hell, Alice dwells in hell
Alice
Alice
Alison
Alice
In Hell
Goodbye
The lyrics of Annihilator's "Alison Hell" are intense and disturbing, portraying the horrors of living life in fear and the descent into insanity. The song draws upon the common theme of Alice in Wonderland, with the name Alison being a variation of Alice. The lyrics describe a character named Alice who is living her life in a constant state of terror. She is frightened and paranoid, always looking over her shoulder in case someone or something is lurking behind her. The line "Alice isn't frightening, Alice aren't you scared" is a contradiction to the portrayal of Alice as a fearful person, suggesting that Alice is not the source of the terror but rather the victim of it.
The song continues to describe the breakdown of Alice's psyche, as her mind begins to fold and she becomes trapped in a mental hell. The song suggests that her fear has created a monster, which seems to be a symbol of her own tortured psyche. The monster takes over, and Alice is left alone and naked, trapped in her own mental prison. The final lines of the song reveal that Alice was killed at birth and that the entire song was a reflection of her disturbed mind.
Overall, "Alison Hell" is a powerful and haunting song that delves into the depths of insanity and terror. It is a commentary on the horrors of living in fear and the consequences of a mind that becomes trapped in its own darkness.

Don't look around the corner, I might be lurking there
Be careful, I might be hiding around the corner waiting to scare you
Under the bed at night, You're up till dawn again
You can't sleep, you're up all night with the fear of what's hiding under your bed
Alison hell, your mind begins to fold

Alison hell, what are you looking for
Alison, what are you searching for in this hellish existence?
Alice in hell, soon I close the door
Alice, I will soon pull you into my underworld and trap you there
Sitting in the corner, you are naked and alone
You're scared and vulnerable, and nobody is there to help you
No one listened to your fears, you've created me
Since your fears were dismissed, they have manifested into me - your nightmare
I was killed at birth, I shoot this final scene, You're in the basement, You're trapped insanity
I was not given a chance at life, and now I control your actions - driving you to madness in the basement
Alison hell, here you shall dwell, Alison hell, Alice dwells in hell
Alison, this is your new reality - trapped and tormented by Alice
Goodbye
The end
