Sweet Poison
Emerald Mind Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Empty blood
Flowing though your veins
Without doubt
I will share my sin

Timid sigh!
Feeling of the wise!
Endless life!
Beauty! Want to try it?

This is all open door on your own
Radiate heat for me and for Universe

Fragrant fruit
From the dying tree.
Lonely brute!
I’ll care about your fear.

My beloved
Bound up with blood!




Lay with me
All eternity!

Overall Meaning

In the song "Sweet Poison" by Emerald Mind, the lyrics depict a person who feels lost and empty. The opening line, "Empty blood flowing through your veins," suggests that this person is lacking in something vital or important. The singer then offers to share their own "sin," perhaps indicating that they too have felt this emptiness at some point, and are now reaching out to help others in similar situations.


Further along, we see the mention of a "fragrant fruit from the dying tree" and a "lonely brute." These could represent the fleeting pleasures of life and the fear that grips people when confronted by their mortality. The singer promises to "care about your fear," indicating the desire to provide comfort and support for someone who may be struggling with this existential crisis.


The last two lines, "My beloved bound up with blood, lay with me all eternity," are particularly haunting. They could suggest that the singer is offering themselves as a permanent companion to the person they are addressing, even in death. The repeated mention of blood throughout the song could also point to the idea that the two are bound by shared experiences or struggles.
