Lyssa
Enfield Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Possessed by blinding hate
Wrapped in a timeless state
A blasphemous splicer of genetic ties
Born to create, demolish and breathe lies

I am boundless

An immortal being Imbedded in mortal meat
A heart that bleeds to rip the seams

I am desolation

This time It will devour the bloodline
The reigns intertwined
Wrapped around your spine
Dependent on a singular faith
Watch us starve for the lies
I've reconciled with my saviour.
Where can you hide?

I own this mind.
This vessel is mine

Split tongues with my hands
Broken bones was the plan
Got nothing fucking left
But a broken mans chance
You're the key, can't you see
What you're doing to me
A chronological disorder
My mind's supposed to see.

I've learned these hauntings are not my own
Speak through me,
We're not alone.

Can't you see?
A forsaken fallen king
My god is dead And your devil lives in me I

n a transcendent moment
This world will face
A constant shift into genocide and genesis
Renewal, recycled a code revival
The plan cleansed of the machine

Rip this jaw from my head
Stop me preaching of death
Let's just stand here instead
Rip this jaw from my head

Entangled by media
blinded by what we see
Changing the algorithm to suit our own needs

Results in defacement of a natural resource
An element of self destruction
His initial plans on course

Subject to biblical lies
Tongues screeching eternal demise
Slowly watching as our forerunners
Drop like flies

I stole the first light
Igniting my mind

Convulsions within my psyche
Tossing and turning within my duality




My humanity is beginning to be lead astray
What is this evil taking over me?

Overall Meaning

The song Lyssa by Enfield explores the theme of possession, both physical and mental. The lyrics suggest that the singer is possessed by an entity or force that is fueled by hate and has the ability to splice genetic ties. The singer identifies as an immortal being trapped within mortal flesh and is filled with desolation. The entity within the singer sees the world as a battleground and is determined to impose its singular faith by devouring any opposition to its will. The singer is fervently controlled by this force, which has split the tongue, broken bones, and consumed their sense of self-awareness. The singer laments that their mind is slowly losing its humanity and becoming unable to resist the evil that is taking over.


The lyrics of Lyssa suggest that the singer is grappling with a force that is beyond their control. The language used is vivid and intense, conveying a strong sense of conflict and struggle. The use of metaphor - such as the vessel metaphor - is used to describe how the singer is no longer in control of their own body or mind, being pushed around and led astray. The song also touches on the theme of faith and how it can be corrupted by malevolent intentions. The final verses of the song suggest that there is hope for redemption, but only if the singer is willing to acknowledge the influence of this force.

Short story:
I was staying at my parents place for a while to take care of their pets since they went away on vacation.

I did the mistake of not having a warm jacket with me. So when I left the house I was freezing.

The next time I decided to just take a jacket from my stepfather who is massive. It was a windbreaker 2 sizes larger than me.
I looked exactly like the guys in this video. Which to me is kinda hilarious.

Now I am not sure if I should think this is cool or not. It certainly has a charm.
