Twist the Thorn
Hocico Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is a storm created to wake dreamers
Living the electric dream
Traveling through the storm
Speaking with the devil's teeth
Making the black air blow
I will twist the thorn
Please, just don't move
And enjoy this pain, die
You just told me, no matter if you love me
Come just twist the thorn
It's your fate, finding the medicine to kill your pain
It's the scorn, fighting the whole world since you were born
It's your fate, kill the beast twisting the thorn in your side
It's the scorn, fighting the whole world since you were born
You just told me, no matter if you love me
Come just twist the thorn
You just told me no matter if you hate me
Come just twist the thorn
It's your fate, finding the medicine to kill your pain
It's the scorn, fighting the whole world since you were born
It's your fate, kill the beast twisting the thorn in your side
It's the scorn, fighting the whole world since you were born
The lyrics of Hocico's "Twist the Thorn" are dark and intense, speaking to the pain and struggles that we all experience in life. The song is an anthem for dreamers who have been awakened by the storm, those who fight back against the demons that haunt them. The imagery of the electric dream and the devil's teeth suggest a world of danger and chaos, where pain and suffering are always present. The chorus of the song is a call to take action, to twist the thorn in your side and feel the pain, to fight against fate and the scorn of the world.
The song seems to be about confronting and embracing pain, instead of running from it. The lyrics suggest that the pain is necessary, and the only way to move forward is to face it head-on. The idea of twisting the thorn in your side is a metaphor for this, suggesting that you must not only endure pain but also take control of it. The song captures the sense of desperation and struggle that comes with living in a harsh and unforgiving world, and the need to fight and overcome it.
In summary, Hocico's "Twist the Thorn" is a dark and powerful song that speaks to the human experience of pain and struggle. It is about confronting and embracing pain instead of running from it, and taking control of it in order to move forward.
