Follow The Trail Of Blood
Combichrist[OST DmC] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The trail of blood
Crossing the line
Sickness of heart
And now you're nailed
Nailed to a cross
Covered in fuel
You never listened
Never knew what I felt
Now you will burn
And your heart of ice will melt
Follow the trail
The trail of blood
Crossing the line
Sickness of heart
You know you failed
Failed to obey
You're obsolete
On your knees
Can't walk away
You're obsolete, still killing me
In my head you're the enemy
You're obsolete, still killing me
In my head you're the enemy
You're waiting for change
Don't expect it from me
You're waiting for change
A thousand complaints
You never listened
Listened to me
It's always the same
Just set me, set me free
You're obsolete, still killing me
In my head you're the enemy
You're obsolete, still killing me
In my head you're the enemy
Follow the trail
The trail of blood
Crossing the line
Sickness of heart
You know you failed
Failed to obey
You're obsolete
On your knees
Can't walk away
In my head you're the enemy
You're obsolete, still killing me
In my head you're the enemy
You're obsolete, still killing me
In my head you're the enemy
The lyrics of Combichrist[OST DmC]'s song "Follow The Trail Of Blood" describe the feeling of betrayal and anger towards someone who never listened to the singer's feelings. The person being addressed is now nailed to a cross, covered in fuel, and about to ignite, symbolizing their impending destruction. The singer wants them to follow the trail of blood, indicating that they are responsible for the situation they are in. The person being addressed is obsolete, and the singer highlights their failure to obey, which has led them to their current predicament.
Throughout the song, there is a sense of frustration and resignation in the singer's tone, as they express their disappointment with the other person's inability to change. They are tired of waiting for change and don't expect it from the other person anymore. They want to be set free from this destructive relationship, and the repeated line "In my head you're the enemy, you're obsolete, still killing me" emphasizes the mental toll that this person has had on the singer.
The song's title and the repeated line "follow the trail of blood" are references to the game it was created for, DmC: Devil May Cry. The game's main character, Dante, is a demon hunter who follows the trail of blood to track down demons. The song's lyrics emphasize Dante's mission to destroy evil and symbolize the destruction of evil in the game.
Line by Line Meaning
Follow the trail
Listen and heed a path that leads to the truth
The trail of blood
That path may be one of violence and destruction
Crossing the line
Violating boundaries and crossing into forbidden territory
Sickness of heart
A deep emotional pain and suffering, leading to malice and hatred
And now you're nailed
You're trapped, held down, and can't escape
Nailed to a cross
A metaphorical crucifixion, punished for one's sins and crimes
Covered in fuel
Primed for an explosion, ready to cause destruction
About to ignite
Moments away from unleashing a fiery rage
You never listened
Ignoring the warning signs and refusing to hear the truth
Never knew what I felt
Failing to understand and empathize with another's pain and emotions
Now you will burn
Facing the consequences of one's actions and suffering the punishment
And your heart of ice will melt
The punishment will eventually break down one's defenses and barriers
You know you failed
Acknowledging one's mistakes and shortcomings
Failed to obey
Ignoring orders and neglecting responsibilities
You're obsolete
No longer needed or useful
On your knees
Begging for mercy, realizing one's powerlessness
Can't walk away
Trapped in a situation, unable to escape
You're obsolete, still killing me
Even though you're no longer useful or present, you're still causing harm and damage
In my head you're the enemy
A deep-seated hatred and resentment towards another person
You're waiting for change
Hoping for a shift or improvement in the current situation
Don't expect it from me
I won't be the one to bring about that change
A thousand complaints
Endless grievances and feelings of dissatisfaction
It's always the same
The situation never changes, continuing to cause pain and suffering
Just set me, set me free
Please release me from this situation and grant me freedom

I do not hate any of the original DMC games at all they are great too i am liking how games now have the ability to show more and give more to the players and to add way better music in them thanks to the improvement of computers and disc capacity games are way better now then back then by far classics will always be great to go back and play once in a while.
