Face of a Demon
Meduza Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel the fury coming
Riding a storm
For every evil deed we do
It is breaking a chain

Turning brother against brother
Driving mankind insane
Cast the world into madness
Take a look behind your eyes and you will see...

[Chorus:]
The face of a demon
The face of a demon

We have to recognize it
Before it's too late
We have to realize it
It feeds our pain

Turning brother against brother
Driving mankind insane
Cast the world into madness
Take a look behind your eyes and you will see...

[Chorus:]




The face of a demon
The face of a demon

The fury mentioned in the opening lyrics is the result of this violence and negativity escalating, causing a storm of emotions and reactions that can turn brother against brother and drive people insane. It is only by recognizing this dark side and acknowledging the pain it causes that we can hope to stop it from spreading further.


The chorus features the repeated phrase "The face of a demon," emphasizing the idea that this negative tendency within us all can take on a monstrous quality if allowed to grow unchecked. The urgency in the lyrics, calling on listeners to recognize and realize the harm being done before it's too late, implies that there is a sense of impending doom or irreversible damage that could result if we don't take action.
