You Are Next
Angelus Apatrida Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One by one they fall behind me
Smell of blood, innate fear
I won't let their faces go up to see
Disbelief, surrounding cries
My strenght increases with each strike
Another one ready to bleed
Beware! You are next! Beware!
I don't give a shit for what you've come
If you're here is 'cause you hate me
I don't know you but you do know me
You should have known that I'm the King
Your agony keeps me alive
See me smile while you ask why
Ripping your face, my legacy
Enjoy this gift, it's all my strenght
Beware! You are next! Beware!
I don't need confessions
Understand my intentions
I've always been pised off at your stupid fashion
'Cause I'm not tired!
Your are next!
'Cause you are damned!
You are next!
Solo: David G. Álvarez
Obeyed impulses, primordial terror
Your senses you are forced to leave
I see your face as a rich kid
Your money will not dim my rage
Your crappy face with teary eyes
Insignificant pride
It makes me different, I'm not a sheep
No one can ever snatch it from me
Beware! You are next! Beware! You are next!
You are next!
The lyrics to "You Are Next" by Angelus Apatrida suggest a violent and aggressive theme. The persona in the song seems unapologetic about their actions, and it appears that they enjoy causing pain and fear in their victims. In the first verse, they describe facing their enemies with their fists at the ready, claiming to be unfazed by the fear and blood surrounding them. They revel in the power they feel with each person they knock down, refusing to let the defeated see their face. The chorus is a warning to their next victim, suggesting that this persona is unstoppable and determined to cause harm.
In the second verse, the persona addresses their victim directly, stating that they don't care about their motives for coming to confront them. They assert their own superiority, claiming to be the "King" and suggesting that their own enjoyment of the victim's suffering is all the justification they need. The solo that follows the verse emphasizes the violence and aggression of the theme, with intense guitar playing that could reflect the persona's own rage. The final verse seems to justify the persona's actions, emphasizing their own uniqueness and independence from societal expectations. Despite the violence and aggression of the song, it is possible that the persona sees themselves as a kind of hero, standing up against those who would seek to oppress them.
