Hellnation Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

what a fucking nightmare
i'm living in a cold sweat
never going to end
how fucked is this place?
how fucked up is this place?
a terrorist to intelligence
a terrorist to the brain
i think i'm going insane




Overall Meaning

This particular Hellnation song, "Cold Sweat," speaks to the overwhelming feeling of despair that seems to have taken a hold of the singer's very being. The opening lyrics set the tone immediately, with the singer describing their living situation as a "fucking nightmare" and the pervasive sense of tension and unease they're feeling on a daily basis. It's a powerful bit of imagery that sets the scene for the rest of the song.


As the lyrics progress, the singer begins to reveal more and more about their situation. They describe the feeling of being trapped in a "cold sweat," which is a physical sensation that's often associated with intense anxiety or panic attacks. The line "never going to end" only adds to this feeling of helplessness, implying that there's no escape from the situation they're in.


The final section of the song is perhaps the most telling, as the singer describes themselves as a "terrorist." This is clearly not meant in the literal sense, but more as a statement on the way they're feeling - like they're at war with their own mind, unable to find any kind of relief or escape from the overwhelming negativity that's taken over.


Overall, "Cold Sweat" is a deeply introspective track that speaks to the darker side of the human experience. It's a song about feeling lost, helpless, and desperate, and it's a perfect example of Hellnation's powerful and uncompromising approach to punk music.
