Electric Wizard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The morning star is burning bright
Doom-mantia
Followers, they sing and dance
The pipes of Pan have weaved a trance
Dressed in black
No turning back
Doom-mantia
The lyrics to Electric Wizard's Doom-Mantia describe a gathering of thirteen individuals on a moonless night. The morning star is shining brightly, as if to guide them to their destination. These individuals appear to be followers of a certain belief system, as they sing and dance together while the pipes of Pan, a Greek god associated with music and nature, have woven a trance around them. They seem to be fully immersed in their rituals, as they are dressed in black and there is no turning back from what they are about to do. The repetition of the phrase "Doom-mantia" throughout the song reinforces the idea that they are devoted to a certain belief or practice that has a sense of impending doom or dark magic.
