Dehumanized
Corpus Mortale Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's no need to feel pity for them...
Curse their souls - they're all dead...
The sand will hide the shame and the pain...
Hollow cold stares in their vacant eyes...
Developing a virulent aberrant strain...
Feeding on the blood - feeding on the pain...
A power centre made up in fantasy...
No outer signs for them to see...
Savouring the thoughts of killing...
Motivated by power...
Paranoid idealization...
Dehumanization...
Elimination of the conscience...
Through drugs and death...
Gutted - the belly plungered...
Spilling the interior...
On the ground...
Destructive deception - reversed humility...
Savouring the thoughts of killing...
Motivated by power...




Paranoid idealization...
Dehumanized...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Corpus Mortale's song Dehumanized depict a gruesome scene of dehumanization, in which the singer is addressing a group of people who have lost their humanity. The first line "There's no need to feel pity for them..." suggests that these people have relinquished their humanity willingly, having been "cursed" and left "dead" either through their own actions or through manipulation by a higher power. The sand that will "hide the shame and the pain" underscores the idea that these individuals are beyond redemption and must be hidden from the world.


The next lines go on to describe the physical manifestations of this dehumanization: "hollow cold stares in their vacant eyes," and a "virulent aberrant strain" that has taken hold of them, causing them to feed on blood and pain. The subsequent lines suggest that these individuals are also mentally dehumanized, with "no outer signs for them to see" and "paranoid idealization" driving their motivation. This lack of conscience is further emphasized in the lines, "elimination of the conscience...through drugs and death." The final chorus repeats the word "dehumanized," driving home the idea that these people have lost their humanity and become something else entirely.


Overall, the lyrics of Dehumanized paint a vivid and disturbing picture of humanity taken to its furthest extremity; a warning against the dangers of power, control, and individualism.
