Eden Synthetic Corps Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
fill the barrel and shoot your best friends
Shout out, the sentence:
"This is a message from God himself"
Cut down their bodies,
Rip their flesh and bite their necks
Break up their spine
You will be the King in this new world of yours
You'll be the God in this new world of yours
Shut down the chamber,
Release the gas and watch them breathe
Leave them in Slumber,
You will be the only seed.
Cut down their flesh
Rip their heart out, slice it down
Make their bodies crash
This will be your world unbound.
You can't sell your soul to the devil as the devil lives in yourself.
The first verse of Eden Synthetic Corps's song "Magenta" is a graphic and shocking depiction of a person's descent into madness and the desire for power and control. The lyrics speak of shutting down all exits and turning on one's own friends, killing them without mercy. The singer declares themselves to be a messenger of God, justifying their actions as a divine mission. The violent imagery continues with the description of mutilating the bodies of the victims, biting their necks and breaking their spines. The second verse continues with the theme of domination and control, with the singer declaring themselves to be the king and god of their own new world. The lyrics speak of using gas to put the remaining people to sleep, leaving the singer as the sole surviving seed to cultivate a new world.
The lyrics of "Magenta" are a disturbing and provocative commentary on the nature of power and madness. The song seems to suggest that the desire for control, and the willingness to inflict violence on others to achieve it, is ultimately self-destructive. The lyrics paint a dark and chilling picture of a person consumed by their own narcissism and driven to the brink of insanity. In the end, the singer is left alone in their own world, a barren wasteland of their own making.

Shut Down all exits,
Close all escape routes,
fill the barrel and shoot your best friends
Load your weapon and kill your closest companions
Shout out, the sentence:
Yell the phrase:
"This is message from God himself"
"This is a communication from a divine being that you believe in"
Cut down their bodies,
Slice through their physical forms,
Rip their flesh and bite their necks
Tear away their muscles and sink your teeth into their throats
Break up their spine
Snap their backbone in two
Smash a hammer against their backs.
Strike their vertebrae with a tool.
You will be the King in this new world of yours
You'll hold supreme power in your newly created reality
You'll be the God in this new world of yours
You'll be worshipped as a deity in your newly created reality
Shut down the chamber,
Close off the enclosed space,
Release the gas and watch them breathe
Let out a poisonous vapor and observe their breathing
Leave them in Slumber,
Put them into a deep sleep,
You will be the only seed.
You will be the sole source of new life.
Cut down their flesh
Slice through their muscles
Rip their heart out, slice it down
Tear their organ from their body and cut it apart
Make their bodies crash
Cause their physical forms to collapse
This will be your world unbound.
This will be your unbridled reality.
You can't sell your soul to the devil as the devil lives in yourself.
You cannot bargain with an evil force as it already resides within you.
