Poisoned
Morgain Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your eyes are dancing, in the final flight
The world has changed to Mary - go - round

Life is like a ship
On neverending trip
Water sometime lies
Scream and cry
End of your life
End of your time
End for your mind
In this killing dream

Trying to escape, from from the circling storm
You feel the weakness and your body falls

Leaving the ship
It's not a trip
Poisoned and ill
You only scream

Feeling the wind
Caressing your skin




With opened eyes
Silently you cry

Overall Meaning

The song "Poisoned" by Morgain is a haunting and emotional portrayal of a person's dying moments. The lyrics of the song convey the sense of desperation and fear that the person is experiencing as they face their looming death. The opening lines of the song, "Your eyes are dancing, in the final flight. The world has changed to Mary-go-round" present a vivid image of the person's disorientation and confusion as they realize that their life is coming to an end. The metaphor of a "Mary-go-round" suggests that the world is spinning out of control and the person is powerless to stop it.


The second verse of the song, "Life is like a ship, On neverending trip, Water sometimes lies, Scream and cry" presents an extended metaphor comparing life to a ship on a never-ending journey, with its share of both calm and turbulent waters. The person is screaming and crying because they are realizing that their own journey is about to come to an end. The chorus of the song then drives home the finality of the person's situation, "End of your life, End of your time, End for your mind, In this killing dream."


The final verse of the song, "Feeling the wind, Caressing your skin, With opened eyes, Silently you cry" is heartbreaking in its simplicity. The person is now accepting their fate and is experiencing the last sensations of their life, feeling the wind on their skin and silently crying. The somber melody of the song only adds to the melancholic mood, making it a powerful and emotive piece.
