Mad Sin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No One Saw The Terror In Your Eyes!

"shut up and swallow"
Yeah, that's what daddy said before he came in her - down in the garden shed
"now you get punished for being such sinful scum
and did you never ever say a word to any one"

CHORUS:
Caroline, my sweet sweet caroline,
No one saw the terror in your eyes

Pure desperation! yeah yeah
But mom never said a word, she just took another sip
From the bottle of dirt
What about the neighbours?
They found that little girl next to the body parts Which used to be her parents

CHORUS:
Caroline, my sweet sweet caroline,
No one saw the terror in your eyes

CHORUS:
Caroline, my sweet sweet caroline,
No one saw the terror in your eyes

No one saw your anger, till you cut off his arms, Cut off his legs,
Cut off his dick with his own axe
Pulled out her heart, cut out the brains,
It felt so good and it killed the pain

CHORUS:
Caroline, my sweet sweet caroline,
No one saw the terror in your eyes

CHORUS:
Caroline, my sweet sweet caroline,
No one saw the terror in your eyes

No one saw your anger, till you cut off his arms, Cut off his legs,
Cut off his dick with his own axe
Pulled out her heart, cut out the brains,
It felt so good and it killed the pain

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Mad Sin's song "Sweet Caroline" tell a disturbing story of abuse, revenge, and murder. The lines "shut up and swallow" and "punished for being such sinful scum" suggest that the singer (presumably Caroline) has endured physical and sexual abuse at the hands of her father. The lyrics then describe the aftermath of Caroline's violent revenge against her abuser, as well as her mother and neighbors, who had failed to protect her. The chorus repeats the phrase "No one saw the terror in your eyes," emphasizing the isolation and despair that Caroline experienced.


Throughout the song, the lyrics are graphic and unsettling, with descriptions of dismemberment and mutilation. However, they also suggest that Caroline's violent acts were a form of catharsis and a way of finally asserting control over her life. The line "It felt so good and it killed the pain" implies that the violence was a release from the trauma that Caroline had experienced.


In summary, "Sweet Caroline" is a disturbing but powerful depiction of the cycle of abuse and the toll it can take on a person's mental health and well-being. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of Caroline's suffering and her eventual violent retribution, highlighting the way that trauma can manifest as rage and despair.
