Devil's Train Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
in the year of 74 I hear the first metal rock
in the day of hangin around the rock
the TV seat on the play
hey many all night it's ..the mirror many time
I'm in love the feelin the sound ..my veins
I'm never roll for the music I'm ball now I am ready
my life I left control
fire and water
I keep salvation to my soul
fire and water
In the year of 84
in ..heavy metal trash and war
for kind of ..that kind of.. hell
will come to hold you
I'm in love the feelin the sound ..my veins
I'm never roll for the music I'm ball now I am ready
fire and water
my life I left control
fire and water
I keep salvation to my soul
fire and water
fire and water my life
my life I left control
fire and water
fire and water
my life I left control
fire and water
I keep salvation to my soul
fire and water
The lyrics of Fire and Water by Devil's Train are about the deep love and obsession for heavy metal music. The singer talks about his introduction to metal in the year 1974, and how it took over his life. He reminisces about hanging around rock concerts and watching TV shows that featured metal music. He describes how the feel and sound of metal music ran through his veins, and how he was willing to give it his all.
The song speaks about the powerful effect music has on people's lives, particularly heavy metal music, and how it can become a source of salvation for souls. The words 'fire and water' are repeated multiple times throughout the song, indicating the contrast in the two elements that combine to form something powerful, much like music.
The lyrics also discuss the singer's loss of control of his life because of his love for heavy metal, and how he has embraced it as his passion, and is now ready to face it head-on. The song, therefore, becomes an anthem for all those who have found their calling in heavy metal, and have allowed it to take over their lives.
