Kissed by Wolf
Karliene Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kings of sea
Water steeds
Burn with fire
Songs of war
Upon the lyre

Life is war
Clash of swords
Rest assured
Scars are trophies
Kissed by wolf
Kissed by wolf (kissed by wolf)

We fight with the one called Wolf-Kissed (kissed by wolf)
The one with the sight of Odin (kissed by wolf)
We know that every scar (kissed by wolf)
Is revered in Valhalla (kissed by wolf)

We fight with the one called Wolf-Kissed (kissed by wolf)
The one with the sight of Odin (kissed by wolf)
We know that every scar (kissed by wolf)
Is revered in Valhalla
Is revered in Valhalla
Is revered in Valhalla

Mighty roars
Echo o'er
Veils of time
And evermore
The raven flies

Life is war
Clash of swords
Rest assured
Scars are trophies
Kissed by wolf
Kissed by wolf (kissed by wolf)

We fight with the one called Wolf-Kissed (kissed by wolf)
The one with the sight of Odin (kissed by wolf)
We know that every scar (kissed by wolf)
Is revered in Valhalla (kissed by wolf)

We fight with the one called Wolf-Kissed (kissed by wolf)
The one with the sight of Odin (kissed by wolf)
We know that every scar (kissed by wolf)
Is revered in Valhalla
Is revered in Valhalla
Is revered in Valhalla

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh




Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Karliene's song "Kissed by Wolf" depict a battle scene where the warriors fight with the one who is called Wolf-Kissed and has the sight of Odin. The imagery of "Kings of sea, water steeds, burn with fire, songs of war upon the lyre" creates a powerful image of the war that is being fought. The lyrics then go on to suggest that life is a war, and every scar is a trophy that is revered in Valhalla. The use of the phrase "Kissed by wolf" suggests that the warriors are strong and fierce, like wolves, and their scars are a testament to their bravery in battle.


The imagery of the raven flying over the battlefield is also significant because in Norse mythology the raven was seen as a symbol of Odin, the god of war, wisdom, and death. The fact that the raven is flying over the battlefield suggests that Odin is watching over the warriors and is perhaps even helping them in battle.


Overall, the lyrics of "Kissed by Wolf" depict a powerful and epic battle scene where the warriors fight with bravery and strength, and their scars are seen as a symbol of their heroism.

I feel like a American Gods/ Mad Sweeny song by Karliene would be the best thing ever

@theduskmonarch6207

Anything relating to American Gods and possible songs by any of the great music makers of our time seems like a promise of greatness.
