Dark Side
Crucified Barbara Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I won't let it out when you are around
I'm a maniac, I killed him myself
Now I'll hunt you
Till you die on the ground
Open up the gates
Come out and play
Time to run
My dark side is coming for you
Tonight I can smell your fear
You better run
My dark side is coming for you
Come on and let me catch you
Sleep with the enemy for a last time
'Cause what I need is something I can't control
I'm the animal you cannot escape
'Cause I'm for real and so is the pain
Open up the gate I wanna play
Time to run
My dark side is coming for you
Tonight I can smell your fear
You better run
My dark side is coming for you
Come on and let me catch you
Feel my desire, I have a dark side
And I won't let it out when you are around
I'm a maniac in need of a prey
And I will hunt you down
Come on and play
The lyrics of Crucified Barbara's song "Dark Side" describe the intense and dangerous desires that lie just beneath the surface of one's personality. The singer appears to be struggling with impulses that they can't seem to control and which threaten to hurt those they care about. They describe this aspect of themselves as a "dark side" and admit that it is something they hide from the people around them. However, when they are alone, their urges take over, and they become a "maniac" who is willing to go to any lengths to satisfy their needs. They compare themselves to an animal hunting its prey and suggest that there is no escape from their grasp.
The tone of the song is dark and menacing, with heavy guitar riffs and driving drums contributing to the sense of urgency and danger. The lyrics suggest that the singer is not in control of their own actions and that their impulses are leading them down a path towards destruction. The repeated refrain of "time to run" creates a sense of inevitability and suggests that the singer's dark side is something that cannot be avoided. The song seems to be a warning to listeners to be careful of their own hidden desires and to recognize the importance of keeping them under control.
