Dorso Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cuando los intrusos que te acosan se presentan
Sumido en tinieblas es la daga la que ordena
Oh gran sociedad en romance no hay perdon
Carne y metal se fusionan al danzar
Buscando encontraron un cadaver en un cuarto
Con multiples cortes decorando su garaganta
Con un espectaculo venido de tinieblas
En estos pasillos lo maligno se prepara

Matter de tinieblas envia ya tus huestes
Es la proxima ofrenda
Yo debo tener tu caliz interior
Puede purificar
He matado intrusos he abierto sus carnes
Por ti,
Matter tu traicion no voy a perdonar
Reytec, Reytec
Ella es parte de mi
Ven a mi
No debes traicionar el culto matter
Romance!! oh!! romance!!
Luz o maldicion
Las viejas arañas se saludan una noche
Solo ellas conocen el secreto de los techos

En sus bibliotecas almacenan nuestros pasos
En estos pasillos es mi sombra la que ordena.

Overall Meaning

The song "Romance" by Dorso speaks of a dark and ominous society where intruders are hunted down and killed. The lyrics speak of a fusion of flesh and metal as the intruders are killed in a gruesome manner, their throats cut and their bodies mutilated. The society depicted in the song is one where darkness rules and evil thrives. The lyrics suggest that the singer of the song is part of this society and has killed many intruders in the name of Matter, the entity that seems to rule over this dark world. The singer seeks to obtain Matter's "caliz interior" or inner chalice, which he believes can purify him in some way. The lyrics suggest that the singer is willing to do whatever it takes to obtain this chalice, even if it means betraying the cult of Matter in some way.
