Astraphobia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This stories tragic from the beginning
But, you could pretend that the cage your in
Is the only home you have
What does it feel like to hurt me?
When is the anesthesia creeping in
What does it feel like to hurt me?
The roof above's collapsing,
I felt the water leak from the ceiling
The blood's on my hands
Don't think i'll ever understand
Why you left me here,
Left me here to die
What does it feel like to hurt me?
When is the anesthesia creeping in?
What does it feel like to hurt me?
No one knows better than myself
Now the way out is through the mirror,
But it forces me to look at myself
I watch as the glass is breaking
Now shards are scraping,
Reflecting, taking blood
I gave you solemn warning
The stories tragic from the beginning
A flash in the dark,
It's not the end,
Just a moment to ask myself,
What does it feel like to hurt me?
When is the anesthesia creeping in?
What does it feel like to hurt me?
No one knows better than myself
In the lyrics to Astraphobia's song "Blood," the artist tells a tragic story from the beginning. He warns the listener that what they're about to hear is not pleasant. The lyrics suggest that the listener is trapped in a cage, but they've convinced themselves that it's their home. The artist questions what it feels like to hurt him, and if the anesthesia is creeping in.
As the roof above him collapses, he feels water leaking from the ceiling. The blood on his hands suggests something violent has happened, and he's struggling to come to terms with it. The artist is wondering why he's been left to die, as he questions again what it feels like to hurt him.
The way out, according to the artist, is through the mirror. However, it forces the artist to look at himself and confront his actions. The glass begins to break, as he reflects on his guilt and takes in the blood. The song ends with a moment of self-reflection as the artist asks himself again what it feels like to hurt him, and acknowledges that no one knows better than himself.
