Doomriders Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
"Join her where she lies dead... sleep on the cold sea bed."
I'm coming home
Under the raging sea, sirens call out to me
"Come rest your weary bones... where her soul sleeps alone."
Under the raging sea, sirens call out to me
"Your true love lies in wait... in the darkness."
I'm coming home
Under the raging sea, sirens call out to me
"Set sail into the night and never return."
The lyrics to Doomriders' song "Sirens" paint a haunting picture of a sailor being called to his death by the alluring voices of mythical creatures. The phrase "under the raging sea" indicates a stormy and dangerous environment, where the sirens' song serves as a deadly temptation. The repetition of the line "I'm coming home" creates a sense of inevitability, as if the sailor has resigned himself to his fate and is willingly succumbing to the sirens' call.
The imagery of the sirens instructing the sailor to "join her where she lies dead... sleep on the cold sea bed" and "rest your weary bones... where her soul sleeps alone" gives the impression that the sailor is being lured to his death by a former lover or companion who has already perished at sea. The idea of true love waiting in the darkness further adds to the sense of the sailor being led to his doom by a powerful and seductive force.
Overall, "Sirens" is a powerful and unsettling song that explores themes of temptation, death, and the allure of the unknown. The repetitive structure and haunting lyrics make it a standout track on Doomriders' album.
