Hell-O-Hill Lyrics

""DRESSED IN BLACK"" - HELL THEATER

She’s walking in the dark road
where the sun never comes
where the wolves howl
steps in the unknown

dark all around her

smell of putrefaction
deadly eyes look at het
here death reigns

Her family dead on the ground
pieces of flesh all around
and above them
obscure presences

now Mary sees
she knows them
and she sees their
dying faces
and them
look at her

dressed
in black
she dressed in black
she dressed in black

death has taken this place
the blood washes this ground
nauseating smell all around
the hand of doom is upon them

she’s running away from here
far away from this nightmare

a dark reality
the Evil is growing

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Hell-O-Hill's song Dressed In Black are introspective in nature and express the idea of transformation. The opening lines suggest a positive outlook on life and a fresh start, but the chorus paints a different picture of decay and becoming a monster. The singer has dressed their heart in decay, which symbolizes a dark and negative outlook on life. The line "I've become a monster" suggests the singer has transformed into something they are not proud of because of the circumstances they experienced.

The second verse is perhaps the most complex section of the song. The singer references false prophets who prey on critics, possibly meaning those who judge or criticize others. The singer seems to admit to hiding their own negativity in the past and suggests they may do so again. They also express the idea that everyone can become a monster given the right circumstances. The line "The truth is what you never heard" is cryptic and could mean several things, such as the fact that what we believe to be true is not always the reality of the situation.

The chorus repeats the idea of dressing the heart in decay and becoming a monster. The final line brings the song full circle by referring to the "faint of heart" and how they too can become monsters. This concluding point suggests that anyone can go through a transformation and become someone they never thought possible.
