Green Hell
Paragon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Step into another hell
In the mud is where you dwell
On through a swamp of rotten trees
With snapping beasts below your feet

A boiling brew – the poisoned air
Pleading answers – earning despair
Forgotten realms - Forgotten times
Locked in this horror by an evil spell




Trails of terror painted in blood
Your lost in a green hell

Through vivid lyrics, the song captures a scene of utter despair with lines like "In the mud is where you dwell" and "Forgotten realms - Forgotten times," indicating a feeling of isolation and being trapped in an unfamiliar and dangerous place. The "snappping beasts" beneath "rotten trees" build a sense of dread and peril that captures the singer's struggle.


The lyrics also illustrate a bleak and hopeless situation where the air is "poisoned" and "Pleading answers," resulting only in "despair." Within this dark, foreboding landscape, trail's of "terror painted in blood" and a sense of being "lost" in a "green hell" consistently depict the overall tone of the song. The song ends with a stark picture of the singer's entrapment, evoking the feeling of a claustrophobic and tormenting nightmare. The song is a powerful depiction of despair in the face of an insurmountable situation, where the odds are hopelessly stacked against the singer.
