No one
Blutengel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You live in darkness
You live in fear
You hiding from me
I can see through you
Chemical warfare
Starving children
Hunger in the world
Caused by the system

No one lives forever
No one can escape
No one lives forever
No one can escape




I'm coming over your world
Everyone should feel the pain

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Blutengel's song "No one" capture a sense of despair and frustration at the state of the world. The opening two lines address the sense of darkness and fear that can grip us, while the next two lines seem to refer to a sense of deceit or hiding something from others. The reference to "chemical warfare" and "starving children" immediately draw attention to the many forms of suffering and injustice in the world, with hunger as a particularly difficult and seemingly intractable problem. The final line of the verse, "caused by the system," suggests a view that the root causes of these problems are systemic, beyond the control of any individual, and possibly deliberately orchestrated by those in power.


The chorus emphasizes the theme of mortality and the impossibility of escaping suffering, with the repetition of the lines "No one lives forever/No one can escape." The final two lines, "I'm coming over your world/Everyone should feel the pain," suggest a desire to confront those who are responsible for causing suffering, and a sense that this suffering is something that everyone should be aware of and share in.


Overall, the song seems to be a call to action, urging listeners to recognize the problems of the world and to not remain complacent in the face of suffering. The lyrics suggest a view that the root causes of these problems are systemic, and that it will take collective action to bring about change.
