Lonewolf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Eden isn't safe from their attack
Evil has got the upper hand
Light and peace are forever damned
Demons rise to take you below
Hellfire burns your soul
There's no escape from those evil claws
I feel so faceless heartless soul
Dreams and values seem to be gone
When you don't expect it comes the fall
Left alone you ask for the point of it all
And when you think you made it
There is always a price to pay
In the end the demon wins
There is no use to hope and pray
Demons rise to take you below
Hellfire burns your soul
There's no escape from those evil claws
My heart is black my soul so cold
I feel so faceless heartless soul
Dreams and values seem to be gone
When you expect it least there comes the fall
Left alone you ask for the point of it all
In the end the evil takes it all
No escape from the final fall
All is written – written in black
Whatever the joy – you'll pay it back
Cold
I feel so cold
The lyrics of Lonewolf's song Cold paint a bleak picture of a world overrun by evil. The opening lines describe the sense of lurking danger, with the evil waiting in the shadows. The mention of Eden being unsafe is a clear reference to the biblical concept of paradise being ruined by sin. The imagery of light and peace being forever damned is a powerful indictment of the utter hopelessness of the situation.
The next few lines describe the relentless advance of the demons, who rise up to take the listeners down to hell. The metaphor of hellfire burning one's soul is a powerful image of the pain and suffering that evil can inflict. The line "there's no escape from those evil claws" is particularly poignant, as it suggests that even efforts to resist the darkness are futile.
The refrain of "my heart is black my soul so cold, I feel so faceless heartless soul" is a powerful evocation of the sense of despair that comes with facing such overwhelming evil. The lines "dreams and values seem to be gone, when you don't expect it comes the fall" evoke the sense of loss that is so often a part of dealing with evil. The sense of being left alone and asking for the point of it all will resonate with listeners who have faced uncertain times.
Overall, the song paints a portrait of a world where evil reigns supreme, and hope seems lost. The imagery of demons and hellfire is a powerful metaphor for the darkness and pain that can come with confronting evil. Through it all, Lonewolf maintains a powerful sense of defiance and a refusal to give up in the face of such overwhelming darkness.
