Skinwalkers
Orion Rigel Dommisse Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've got this man who owns a gun
A man with two merit badges to his name
Boy Scout patches that claim
He knows how to shoot it
When the time comes that he needs to use it
I'm gonna work on my knife throwing
When he's running out of bullets
I'll know what to do then
I'm gonna practice my
Remote viewing
When they're hiding behind the trees
I'll be able to see them
He'll ask
"Hey darlin'
What do you see?"
I see two skinwalkers
Walking after me
Not sure if they are owls or bears
I just know that they've been shape-shifting
And traveling in pairs
Little shape-shifter of mine
I just know he has me under his power
I can't remember if I should be scared oh
I just know he wants me to follow him into the woods
I know that I want to
But I ain't so sure I should
I just know he has me under his power
I can't remember if I should be scared oh
I just know he wants me to follow him into the woods
I know that I want to
But I ain't so sure that I should

I followed him into the woods
Good Lord knows his long legs are carrying him much too fast
Caught up with him at last
Grew my legs longer
My heart I shifted stronger
Not sure if they're owls or bears
I just know that we've been shape-shifting
And traveling in pairs
Little shape-shifter of mine
I just know he has me under his power
I can't remember if I should be scared
I just know he wants me to follow him into the woods
I know I want to
But I ain't so sure I should
I just know he has me under his power
I can't remember if I should be scared
Oh I just know he wants me to follow him into the woods
I know that I want to
But I ain't so sure that I should

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Orion Rigel Dommisse's song Skinwalkers appear to be about a woman who is being pursued by someone who has a gun. She seems to have some level of control over the situation since she states that she is going to work on her knife throwing skills in case the man runs out of bullets. She also mentions practicing her remote viewing, which is the ability to see things from a distance, suggesting that she is preparing for the possibility of being hunted in the wilderness.


The woman then describes seeing two skinwalkers or shape-shifters who are following her. She is unsure if they are owls or bears, but she knows they have been traveling in pairs and changing their form. Despite her fear, she is drawn to follow the man who has been pursuing her into the woods. It is unclear if he is also a shape-shifter or if he has some other hold over her. The repetition of the line "I just know he has me under his power" suggests that the woman is conflicted between wanting to follow him and being afraid of the consequences.


Overall, the lyrics create an eerie and suspenseful atmosphere, with the woman seemingly trapped in a dangerous situation and being pursued by mysterious figures. The song also touches on themes of power dynamics and control, with the woman feeling both drawn to and afraid of the man who is pursuing her.
